I have about 1acre gerbera plants under the poly house at Bangalore. The plants are 1 year old and productions has been good so far but from last 2-3 weeks the production has reduced. The plants also look very week, some of them have died and lot of them have dried leaves. No visible problem of powdery, thripes or mites.
Our consultant feels the plants have gone under stress and asked us to apply FIM and DAP to improve the plants. Also as precaution to drench soil with ROKO (1gm/lt).
Please let me know what could be the problem and how could I recover the plants. As the season is about to start I need to take some steps immediately

HI

The ideal temprature, gerbera requires is a night temp of 15-18 degrees and day temp of max 24-25 degrees. HAve you used a shade net inside the polyhouse.
Also give a micro nutrient spray
