Have quite a number of geraniums which were wintered in cold greenhouse, although heat used for a few da6s during period of severe frost. All appeared ok but have recently noticed that several plants have tips turning brown/black and some appeared to have rotted. Plants were all kept dry over the winter with no watering until four weeks ago. Ground still damp so none have dried out. Any particular reason for this damage to plants – I am very much an amateur and any help/suggestions would be very welcome.
I do not grow them but I would check if you have a potting mix that holds too much water. I would also extract some of the plants from their pots to see how much moisture is in the bottom half of the pot to see if there is a pot drainage issue (I assume the pots have water drainage holes and that they are not clogged).
Many thanks. I think you have made a valid point, base of some pots are quite wet. Thanks again
