They can be growing season, potting mix, sunlight, watering, and fertilizers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Moreover you also need to be aware about pest and diseases that can harm your plant.

And you can easily grow gerbera in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/agriculturereview.com\/hi\/2020\/09\/what-planting-zone-am-i-in-read-or-miss-out.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">plant hardiness zones<\/a><\/strong> <strong>9<\/strong>, <strong>10<\/strong>, and <strong>11<\/strong>. However, you can grow them anytime during the year. But spring is the best season to propagate gerbera plant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Gerbera starts blooming from late spring to fall. Hence it can be a good choice for gardeners who love to have colourful flowering plants during summer season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Moreover, it can also keep blooming during winters at places where temperature doesn&#8217;t fall below 15 degrees Celsius.<br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Potting_Mix\"><\/span>\u092e\u093f\u091f\u094d\u091f\u0940 \u0915\u093e \u092e\u093f\u0936\u094d\u0930\u0923<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Gerbera daisy plant loves <strong>well drained<\/strong>, <strong>sandy soil <\/strong>that is rich in organic matter. Slightly acidic soil is ideal for growing gerbera. It loves <strong>soil pH<\/strong> of <strong>5.5<\/strong> to <strong>6.5<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">If you do not have sandy soil then you can prepare ideal potting mix. Prepare potting mix with <strong>40% garden soil <\/strong>+ <strong>20% river sand<\/strong> + <strong>40% <\/strong>any <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/agriculturereview.com\/hi\/2020\/07\/manures-and-fertilizers-definition-and-classification.html\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">bulky organic manure<\/a><\/strong>. I use vermicompost or leaf manure for this purpose. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">In this potting mix you can also add one to two handful of bone meal and two tablespoon neem cake fertilizer. If you already have sandy soil, then add bulky organic manure. <br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Selection_Of_Pot\"><\/span>\u0917\u092e\u0932\u0947 \u0915\u093e \u091a\u092f\u0928<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">You can easily grow a single gerbera plant in a <strong>10 to 12 inches sized<\/strong> pot. But make sure that the pot has at least 6 inch depth and 2 to 4 drainage holes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">I prefer growing gerbera in an earthen pot. But you can also grow them in cemented or plastic pots very easily. Just make sure to take care of the drainage.

Moreover gerbera seeds do not remains viable for longer duration. <br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>Sowing Of Seeds:<\/strong> You can sow gerbera seeds in shady spot. Use germination tray filled with potting mix for this purpose. Or you can also germinate seeds in the growing pot. <strong>Sow seeds <\/strong>when average temperature remains between <strong>15 to 20 degrees Celsius<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Maintain adequate moisture and within 14 to 21 days you will notice growth of small seedlings. <br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\"><strong>\u0921\u093f\u0935\u0940\u091c\u0928:<\/strong> You can propagate mature gerbera plant through division. Apply adequate amount of water a day before practicing division. Take out the entire plant along with roots with the help of gardening tools like spade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Try to avoid damage to any part of the plant. Wash out the soil from the root portion. Divide the plants by cutting through roots. Make sure that divisions must have a crown and healthy roots. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">You can transplant the new plants in other growing pots. Make sure to keep crown portion above the soil. As crown is prone to rot. Hence keeping it below can promote fungal diseases.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Keep the soil evenly moist and plants in semi shade till it gets well established in the new pot. Once the plant seems healthy move the pot under direct sunlight. <br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sunlight\"><\/span>\u0938\u0942\u0930\u091c \u0915\u0940 \u0930\u094b\u0936\u0928\u0940<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Gerbera is a <strong>sun loving plant<\/strong>. It requires <strong>direct bright sunlight<\/strong> of at least <strong>5 to 6 hours daily<\/strong> to grow and prosper. However it can also survive under bright indirect sunlight. But the plant size and flower size will get affected.<br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Watering\"><\/span>\u092a\u093e\u0928\u0940<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Although gerbera <strong>prefers moist soil<\/strong> but waterlogging condition can seriously affect and damage the plant. That&#8217;s why having a well drained potting mix is very necessary. Apply water according to the condition of the soil.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">I prefer watering only when top layer of the soil seems completely dry. Do not let the water stand in the pot for more than a minute after watering. <br><br><br><br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/agriculturereview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/gerbera-plant.jpg\" alt=\"gerbera plant, gerbera care, how to grow gerbera, gerbera flowering season, \" class=\"wp-image-2336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/agriculturereview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/gerbera-plant.jpg 640w, https:\/\/agriculturereview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/gerbera-plant-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption>Gerbera Flowers, Image by <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/users\/pezibear-526143\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=4060746\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Pezibear<\/a> from <a href=\"https:\/\/pixabay.com\/?utm_source=link-attribution&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_campaign=image&amp;utm_content=4060746\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">\u092a\u093f\u0915\u094d\u0938\u093e\u092c\u0947<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-large-font-size wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fertilizers\"><\/span>\u0916\u093e\u0926<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:20px\">Do not use inorganic fertilizers for feeding gerbera plant.
