I don't know how properly handle zero values for geometric mean. Maybe just throw them out or add artificial bias (1? By why not 2 or 3 or 0.1?), but this seems to be quick dirty fix.
 
I rely more on quantiles or median values for making conclusions, and use average for visualisation just to make plot line look smoother ( I work with data for plots >>1664423 ).


 
Sometimes I use geometric mean implicitly, as average forf logarithms onf biased value, but I don't need it here, because usual average gives acceptable result for visualisation.
