An indoor Gardenia needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight.
Yellow leaves are usually a watering issue, either to much or to little. Check the soil and if dry, water throughly.
The powdery substance could be powdery mildew, mealy bugs or scale.
Treat the plant with Neem Oil. It works as both fungicide and pesticide.
