Geranium wilt

15 years ago

I started geraniums from cuttings about 9 weeks ago. Most are doing well however some are wilting in the greenhouse even though they are watered, the leaves are quite large and tender and it seems the wilt collapses them. They have recovered so far but it seems now more are doing it and getting worse. Night time temp 55 daytime 78. Any info is appreciated.

It sound like a fungal infection (maybe root rot) May wish to start over with certified disease free cuttings.
