Re: need help
Roots are rotting.... need better drainage ... less watering.. keep in dry side... for already damaged plant, you can try fungicide mixed in watering...

Re: need help
Lower leaves are yellow, Its may indicate plant is not getting sufficient nutrients or oxygen.
Also the white lines on leaves, indicating, perhaps, leafminers larva on leaves though they are not a serious threat of plants life.
Izhar, Roots are rotting because of excessive watering and development of fungus or mold on roots???

Re: need help
Too much water damages Gerbera.Needs sharp drainage. Also spray with Limda as the lines are clear indications of larva.
Gerbera hates too much waterings.

Re: need help
Gerbera need better drainage.... their roots are very susceptible to fungal attack when kept moist for a long time...
Hasan, take out the plants.. wash the soil, cut the dead roots and rotted parts... make a better draining potting medium by adding sand... water thoroughly... then let it dry...
