it is getting out of control...with nowhere to vine....if i cut the top of it...will the rest still grow? or will it die?
Morning glory question please?
You can cutt back morning glories all you want to...The yellowing can simply be from the heat of the sun, or watering from above instead from the bottom or a calcium defiency..Sprinkle epsom salt at the base of the plants and then slightly water it in..it will brighten the leaves up...use about a cup for every 4 feet of ground that the morning glories are planted in..
Reply:cutting back your vine will not effect its growth in any negative way-it will help to thicken it up if anything.
The yellowing may be a deficiency, are the older leaves are yellowing first? If so, try fertilizing it with a nitrogen rich fertilizer, one for lawns/palms etc would be fine. Use a soluble product (one that is a powder that you mix with water) so as the plant can absorb it immediately.
Reply:Hi,
I dont think it will hurt your vine to trim it back some I have trimmed mine back for years and it dont hurt them ,its hard to kill a morning glory, if you have leaves yellowing it may be the runners are wrapping to tight around the branch and chocking it, if so cut the runner and remove it
Reply:don't fertilize a morning glory...you'll get lotsa leaves and little if any flowers......glories are plants of the field, where there's rarely anything like fertilzers!!!....they do best with less fussin'....
Reply:yes. in fact if you cut the top a bit it will grow much thicker with many more flowers also it will grow a bit shorter, but wider

Morning glory (cloud in australia) and the northern lights?
When I was drilling in Big Bell in Western Aust, just out of Cue I saw the Southern Aurora one night when I was on night-shift and it lasted at least 6 hours..
Here is a site with some pics taken in Tassie, this looks almost identical as to what we saw in WA back in '82...

Morning glory grinding?
I have no machine i can use to grind them and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to grind them i tried smashing them with a hammer but they just shoot off
Morning glory grinding?
Maybe the seeds are trying to tell you something. First check out www.EROWID.com. Then use a coffee grinder or soak them overnite and chew, chew, chew. I knew a guy that used the coffee grinder in the grocery store, just don't get caught. When I tried them I got nothing out of it. RScott
Reply:I soak mine for a couple of days, then put them between 2 layers of sandpaper and rub the sheets together. It must work, or I wouldn't have Morning Glory crawling all the way up the staircase outside my apartment every Summer.
I have also had success just planting the seeds in the late fall, before the ground freezes. They have all winter to soften up, and when Spring comes, they start popping out of the ground. I discovered this about 5 years ago. I didn't plant any seeds at all, and they came up where I had planted them the year before and didn't pull out the old plants or remove the flowers from the fence--they reseeded themselves. Now I just dig in a few seeds here and there in November and I have a great crop of Morning Glories come Summer Be sure to mix in some Moonflowers, they look awesome together, since the Morning Glories open during the day, and the Moonflowers at night.

Morning glory and horse-tail problem.?

My question is what is all the types of plant belong in the morning glory group?
I have an strange plant in my yard, I don't know if it's a weed or plant. The leaves close up in the evening time and open back up in the morning. It's slender and the stalk is a quarter thick or a little bit bigger. The limbs spread as wide as my arms and now it's taller than me now. I'm 5'4" in height.

Whats the difference between an Acid Trip and a Trip on Morning Glory seeds?
What is the difference? A story my father told me of a friend of his back in the 60's took acid. After about a half an hour his buddy stood in front of his bathroom mirror and removed all his skin, muscles, circulatory system, organs, till there was nothing but some flesh hanging off his bones. He set all of himself on the top of the toilet bowl and when he came to put his body back together he couldn't. He was eventually caught by the police at 2:00 in the morning barking at traffic on Sunset Blvd. Is one safer than the other and which one is more dangerous if used improperly?

Reply:i believe you are thinking of poppy seeds...i have never heard of anyone tripping off of morning glory seeds...an acid trip involves hallucinations, paranoia, and distortion of reality...the seeds would probably have a lesser effect than actual acid, but i do not know...i have only done acid once and have never tried seeds...there is probably something on the internet about it...you should try googling it...
Reply:Acid Trip is wayyy more powerfull than a Trip on Morning Glory seeds. Its farrrr more expensive but gives a greater experience. Morning Glory seeds are legal and you can buy them at a hardware store, so they are cheep but not as effective when you smoke them. With all drugs come danger and you can die if you use any drug improperly. Acid will most likley do more damage. I dont see how you can use them "improperly" because its not legal but its your choice. You have the information but just be careful dude. You see what happened to your dad's friend. It really doesn't pay to be arrested or far worse, killed from a substance that will give you a small time of pleasure. it really can f*ck up your life.

My fiance gets a morning glory every morning?
from drdrew.com:
"Morning erections are a normal part of male physiology. In fact, when doctors are trying to determine whether or not a man's erectile dysfunction is physiological or psychological, they will often apply a nocturnal tumescence monitor, which monitors the presence and duration of erections during the night. Several things can cause morning erections. One, as the bladder fills during the night, it tends to trigger a spinal reflex that can cause erection. Also, the congestion caused by the full bladder can decrease the outflow of blood from the penis. There are aspects of normal sleep cycling that tend to induce erection as well.
Dr Tim: Erections are mostly controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The parasympathetic part functions during relaxed states. Erections actually occur when men are in relaxed states (you don't need blood going to your penis when you are running from a lion) and early morning is simply one of the most relaxed states."

Will goats get sick if they eat morning glory [ Ipomoea sp.] or passion flower vines [Passiflora]?
We need to plant some fast growing vines against a wired -screened area and are considering Passion flowers and the Morning glories ... we have two pet dwarf Nigerian goats who could reach the vines and possibly nibble on them. Are they poisonous/ at risks??!!
Will goats get sick if they eat morning glory [ Ipomoea sp.] or passion flower vines [Passiflora]?
no problem in the poison department. the morning glory is in the sweet potato family and the passion flower often can put out small eatable fruit.
the real problem is the goats. my ex mother-in-law had several dwarf nigerian goats. the ate everything that grew within reach as fast as it came out of the ground. i don't think your vines stand a chance.

Morning glory plants have beetles. Help What will keep them away?
I did some research and can't find info on this particular beetle. Lots of sites told how many different beetles like these plants, but none said how to stop them from coming to my plants.I've never seen beetles like this before and I've grown Mor Glory for 3 years. Any suggestions? At this point I'm even open to insecticide although it would be my last choice.

Do you have to plant moonflower seeds with Morning glory seeds?
I just started planting MG seeds and i notice people talking about both and not just one. do you have to plant them together?Is it possible to plant morning glories in a condo apartment?
Do you have to plant moonflower seeds with Morning glory seeds?
absolutely not. Plant your MF seeds where you'll be watching them at night. Plant your MG's where you can see them in the mornings. For instance, by your patio for you to admire during late cookouts for MF's and outside your breakfast nook for MG's.
Reply:You can definitely plant them separately, but once you plant morning glories, you will have them forever!!! They can get way out of control and invade other plants with their vines. Just be careful. Moonflowers on the other hand are beautiful and less invasive. They are self seeders which die off at the end of the season and return in the spring. I love the moonflowers, not so much the morning glories, or four-o-clocks.

Moonvine Morning Glory?
I planted moonvine morning glories in a long narrow planter and its climbing up a trellis however it really hasnt started branching at all. Its one long vine. I have read articles of pinching back the vine to promote branching. Does anyone have any expierence from this? Or is it a myth?
Moonvine Morning Glory?
Mine grow without much help at all. Plenty of water with well drained soil. I don't pick up any dropped flowers, I let them stay and it reseeds itself. It should grow on it's own. As for pinching, I've not seen it help nor hinder. I cut mine back to the ground every winter as it dies off and each spring, it's all over and doubled up.
You may want to clip a starter and root it in a vase then plant it among the other. Takes about a week to get it started.

How to get rid of Morning Glory Flowers?
I planted them a couple years along a wooden fence at the back of a cutting garden at my fathers house. Now he can't grow anything because the morning glories choke and smother everything....
How do I get rid of them without harming the ability to plant flowers for cutting?
I've tried weeding with a frenzy every couple of days - but there seems to be no end in sight.

Reply:I had the same problem with wild berries in my yard. The only thing I found that worked was digging them up. Every bit of root that I could get ahold of. Each spring they were fewer and fewer, but now they're gone forever. Fight a persistant weed with persistance.
Reply:weed killer such as "Round-Up" once temps have reached 80* will do it. Just wait at least 2 wks. before planting anything %26amp; be sure to do on a NON_WINDY day-so as to not have over-spray harm any plants or grasses you do want to keep.
Check manuf. link below for any further info.
Reply:the roundup idea is a good answer. you may want to use something like 2-4-D in the summer to keep them from going to seed and then use roundup after a good frost. the white ones you mentioned are a bad weed and it goes by several names with morning glory being just one of them. they are either field (small flowers) or hedge (larger flowers) bindweed and ate on most states obnoxious weed list
Reply:Dig them up, thin them out, rototill them every year. Do not let them go to seed for the next season. Weed killer, although I don't like pesticides so I just use the elbow grease with persistence.

Are morning glory [blue flowers/vine] easy2grow? will they climb a fence nicely?
and HOW MANY blooms within a foot space do you get?
never have grown them, am starting them from seed indoors 1st.
Live in NY and now's the time to start seedlings.
Today was the 1st warm day of this spring 2008!! :o)
Most of my variety of flowers are warmer colors [some reds, yellows,ect] and pinks too.\need blue in there!

Are morning glory [blue flowers/vine] easy2grow? will they climb a fence nicely?
Morning Glories are great for covering a large space. I've heard people say that you can never get rid of them after planting but I've never had them come back, always have to replant. I grew some under a cedar tree that had been trimmed of branches until about 10 feet off the ground. Last year the morning glories climbed the tree and went up into the branches. I had no idea they'd go that far, it was pretty spectacular and they were covered with blooms every morning. I think if you spaced them every 6-8' along the fence they'll cover nicely. I started mine inside in the little peat pots. Then I put those directly in terra cotta pots (probably 10" diameter) that I busted the bottoms out of and filled in around them with potting soil. That got the seedlings off to a nice start without competing with weeds/grass, but as they grew the roots could go down into the yard. Turn the soil over underneath the pot then place them at least four inches down into the soil. Mine were covered with blooms, more blooms than leaves.
Reply:plant them a couple inches apart and it will fill in great
I plant them around my back deck, and they go crazy there, just make sure they get enough sun and you may need to train them to climb in the begining, but once they start going, they won't stop.
remember to collect the seeds in the fall
good luck and happy planting, these are my favorite!

How to grow morning glory?
Morning glories don't transplant well, so you would be better off soaking them for 24 hours, nick them with a blade, and then either use peat pellets or directly sow them in the ground.
Good Luck
Reply:just throw them down wherever you want them.....they're impossible to kill though..we had them and we mowed them over millions of times...ALWAYS came back
Reply:As long as the threat of frost has passed in your area, you're fine. Morning glories are very easy to grow. Just get the variety you like (I love the "Heavenly Blue" hybrid), soak the seed overnight (they have a VERY hard seed coat), and plant. I like to plant morning glories as early as possible; they close up during the day when it's warm out, so the sooner they grow, the more time I will have to actually SEE them blooming, as it will stay cooler longer during the day.
Be sure to give them a place to climb, as they are vining plants, of course. I have some lattice that I got at Home Depot, but even string will work :-)
Enjoy!
Reply:It should say on the packet which months you can plant them.
Plant them in really big pots, and place the pots by your balcony. The pots will provide the soil and ground, and since Morning Glory is a vine, it will grow on anything that you put it near.
P.S. - that will look BEAUTIFUL!
Reply:fall asleep after makig love to a moose, then realize that you forgot to dampen the soil before you planted the seeds, morning glories are best grown in damp, super fertile soil
Reply:You need to soak the seeds overnight and then plant one or two seeds per cup (plastic cup with a hole in bottom). Keep it inside in a sunny window, (on a tray or plate) watering when needed. Then when they come up, thin to only one plant per cup. When they get to be about 6 or more inches long, you can transplant them outside (in a pot) in a sunny location. I love this time of year!!! It's still cold (40 degrees) where I live, so I have to wait a bit. Actually, I probably could start now...if I keep all my seeds inside. Have fun!

Do different types of water affect plant growth? Which type of water grows a morning glory plant the fastest?
I don't know if anyone would know this without making an experiment to test all of these. Morning glories are really easy to grow and I bet they wouldn't care what type of water they had, as long as they have enough and reasonably good soil.

Is there a way to see if a Morning Glory seed has been chemically treated?
I bought 4 ounces of Morning Glory seeds and I am unsure if I bought chemically treated seeds. Is there a way to see if the seeds have been contaminated? I purchased them from www.bouncingbearbotanicals.com if anyone is familiar with their seeds.
Is there a way to see if a Morning Glory seed has been chemically treated?
Morning Glory seeds have to be chemically treated or they won't germinate. In the wild, they have to go through the intestines of birds or other animals before they will be able to germinate. In order to duplicate that process, it has to go through a chemical treatment.
Reply:Morning glory seeds that have been chemically treated will be coated with a powdery substance, usually pink which is an antifungal agent. If it is just dark brown or black, chances are that it is untreated.
In answer to the first responder to your question, morning glory seeds DO NOT have to be chemically treated in order to sprout. Seeds that have fallen to the ground from the previous season's vine will automatically sprout when the weather warms up. It DOES NOT need scarification - either physical or chemical by way of animal intestines in order to sprout.
Reply:As far as I know, there is no way to tell. If that site said they were organic or untreated, then that probably means they weren't treated with dyes or other chemicals. If seeds have been treated, there is no way to wash off the chemicals.

Does the cocoa shell mulch prevent flowers on morning glory vines?
my morning glory vine looks great but no flowers. The only differance this year is the addition of cocoa shell mulch.
Does the cocoa shell mulch prevent flowers on morning glory vines?
it is deffinately not the mulch. I would have to say that the cocoa mulch is useless as it washes away with rain, blows away with wind, and doesn't even smell very much.
It does have its place in the small sheltered perennial garden because it decomposes faster than bark does.
Ipomea species tend to need 6-8 hours of sun and like moist but well drained conditions. If it is not getting those condidtions it could have enough energy to get through the first year with flowers but not enough to come back the second with flowers.
Have you fertilized it? It could have depleted the soils phosphorus levels last year and need another shot to get it flowering again.
Reply:First, beware of that mulch, dogs find it delicious and it instantly kills them. As for the flowers, I'd say it was too cool and too dark.
Reply:was the mulch well rotted? if it was fresh the mulch will be taking nitrogen out of the soil to compose feed up the vines with some slow release fert

How can I get rid of wild morning glory or is this an immposibility?
I am working on a garden of native plants. all are doing great but I also have wild morning glory that I weed out everyday to prevent it from strangling everybody else. Any way to get rid of it?
How can I get rid of wild morning glory or is this an immposibility?
Not sure how much wild morning glory you currently have in your garden but... if it's among the plants you want to keep, you'll have to make a mixture of Roundup and water.... then use a narrow/thin paintbrush to apply this mix to the proper target and avoid killing your landscape plants. Make sure you apply as much of the herbicide solution to the leaves as you can to insure adequate wetting.
Here's another helpful hint; try mixing the Roundup and water WITH a foliar fertilizer (such as Miracle Gro). The Miracle Gro (fertilier) actually tricks the leaves (stomata) into accepting more of the solution than normal.
GOOD LUCK!
Reply:Try digging deeper to get the whole root out...or maybe spray weedkiller on it.
Reply:Follow these steps:
1. Pull all the large M.G. plants.
2. Squirt left over and new weeds with premixed Roundup spray. You can find this at any hardware store.
3. If you find that it is to difficult to spray the Roundup because other plants are to close use a piece of cardboard to protect other plants while you spray the weeds. Roundup can also be brushed on with a small paint brush.
In time you should be able to rid yourself of morning glory but it will take time, patients, and perseverance.
Reply:Roundup works best in these situations, spray it at the base.
Reply:When they die off you have to remove the vine and spray weed killer. Do this after everything else has died for the winter.
Reply:morning Glory's are one of Those plants just like ivy you have to kill them at the roots and make sure that the seeds remaining do not germinate you can try weed killers and digging them up but this may take several times they are not prone to grow in acidic soil try a weed killer that has less of a base ingredient listed first on the label. good luck
Reply:Morning glory roots can go as deep as 6 feet, We use a product in this state called Curtail, it is a broad leaf selective. I would call your local Soil extension Office, they will be able to tell you what is available and effective in your area. In Colorado it is one of the those weeds we all fight. The SOC will help you and give you all kinds of info, it is there job and they take weeds like morning glory( called bindweed here)
very seriously. You can not ever pull all the roots up you can stop it with the proper selective spray. There is also a mite that you Can get from the SCO that attacks and kills the bindweed. I have not used it but I hear it is very effective and environmentally friendly. You do have to battle it for a very long time the seeds can stay in the soil for many years.
Good luck

Reply:Your wild morning glory is probably what is called bind weed. It vines all over the place with a tiny white morning glory like flower and is very hard to get rid of. If you try to pull them up you only get a very small piece and the majority of the root is left underground to multiply. The best way to get rid of them is with round out, being very careful not to get it on your other plants. It will go to the root and kill the plant.
Reply:Roundup!
Reply:I had this problem too....it was actually killing the tree it was climbing....I had to dig it up and then use root killer
Reply:Not only do the roots go deep (I've read up to ten feet), the seed can remain viable for several years. Try a combination of spraying with Roundup, then pulling a few days later. Don't even bother trying to get the roots when you pull, even if you just break them off, you will weaken the plant. You have to keep at it and if you live in a climate like we have here in Western Washington, you will probably never be completely rid of it.

How To Get Rid of Morning Glory?
Short of constantly ripping the stuff out, does anyone have a good (organic) sollution to this plant? There seems to be morning glory that grows in between my yard and the neighbours' yards. We all pull the stuff, but it just keeps coming back. If I miss one weekend of gardening, the stuff starts to strangle my azalias and blueberry bushes!
How To Get Rid of Morning Glory?
Do you get NPR? This sounds like an ideal question for Mike on You Bet Your Garden. (The website is http://www.whyy.org/91FM/ybyg/ - you can email questions or call.)
Problems with this plant are twofold - one, vine plant, two, self-sowing.
So, not only do you have to rip it out and kill the roots, you have to stop the seeds from spreading. This is probably not going to happen in one season, though.
Your basic strategy is to exhaust the plant by cutting the foliage back, keep flowers off of it so it can't seed, then cover the soil so everything there dies back. It will try and move on you! You've got the right idea, but yeah, it's exhausting.
Reply:only way is to move your azalias and blueberries. basically because you can't kill morning Glories manly because they are only anuals. but they produce so many seeds that its impossible to kill them all without them coming back. its a plant often used to piss off the nighbors and kill trees and stuff, my dad used it to kill my nighbors trees I didn't particulaly care for it but as soon as you see a bloom cut it off and cut the vines down you going to be doing it for years but if you stop it from blooming or growing at all eventually there won't be no seeds, but it might take a few years.
Reply:round up will kill it. If you don't want to use a poison. I have read vinegar will kills plants.
Reply:There is no organic way to get rid of moring glory vines. Weed spray is your only option.
Reply:Hi. Consider surrendering. I have about 900 ft of fence and it's absolutely inundated with this stuff. After years of trying EVERYTHING to make it go away i just gave up. Now, in the spring, i pull down last years 80 bushels of dead vines and just let it grow (cutting it off my sacred goose berry bush when necessary) and just let it have the fence. Honestly...it really looks a lot better then the fence AND it's attracting the now endangered wild honey bee.
Reply:Nope. You have two choices, Roundup or ripping them out. I'm fighting battles in places where I haven't planted morning glories for two years and there are still hundreds of them coming up each week.
Get 'em while they're small, they rip out easier.

How do you filter morning glory seeds with the water and alcohol (gin, voka, etc) method?
I would like to know how to filter morning glory seeds with just water and alcohol to remove the undesirable side-effects? I cant find a web site that explains it in enough detail.
How do you filter morning glory seeds with the water and alcohol (gin, voka, etc) method?
Sounds like you are preparing a tincture.
1 ounce seeds to 16 ounces fluid. With that said, 25% of the fluid is going to be distilled water, which in this measurement would be appx. 4 ounces. The other 12 ounces fluid is vodka or everclear. These alcohols need to contain 95% alcohol for you to get the correct distilation properties.
Now in a glass jar, place the seeds (crush them), alcohol and water. Shake daily for 2 weeks. Then strain the fluid out with cheesecloth cupped over a glass jar.
You should bottle this tincture in a dark glass bottle and the self life is inebidable (no expiration).
For more information on making tinctures, purchase "The Complete Guide to Herbal Medicines" from borders for $7. In the front it gives complete instructions.
PS: You should never try tinctures on herbs without through research or practice with herbs that you know their constitutions or under a herbalist. If you are practicing to be an herbalist---YOU NEED THIS BOOK! Don't make anything without it. It will tell you want herbs can be used in this form and side effects and what drugs should not be used with certain herbs and ect.
Use caution, do your research, then act.

For more information on making tinctures, purchase "The Complete Guide to Herbal Medicines" from borders for $7. In the front it gives complete instructions.
PS: You should never try tinctures on herbs without through research or practice with herbs that you know their constitutions or under a herbalist. If you are practicing to be an herbalist---YOU NEED THIS BOOK! Don't make anything without it. It will tell you want herbs can be used in this form and side effects and what drugs should not be used with certain herbs and ect.
Use caution, do your research, then act.

Well I guess it depend on where you are going?
Reply:morning glory seeds are not the best choice for household trips. the seeds you get from a store are coated in chemicals to keep funguses and bacterias from growing on them and not meant for injestion. if you harvested them you need to shell them as the black coats contain toxins that will strongly disagree with your stomach. shelling morning glory seeds is as you have proabably guessed not the most fun way to spend your next 2 days.

Oasis - (Whats The Story) morning glory? fav songs?
Hello:*****-Great opening track, especially sing hello, hello, it's good to be back.
Roll With It:****- This song is good. Good second track but not as good as the opening track.
Wonderwall:*****- Classic Oasis. Everyone on the planet knows how good this song it so I don't need to expand on it.
Don't Look Back in Anger:*****- Another Classic Oasis tune and one of my all time personal favorites.
Hey Now:***1/4- I don't hate this song but if you ask me what are my favorite Oasis songs this one doesn't come close.
Swamp Song (Interludes 1 %26amp; 2):**- This was just a clip and in the long run I wished they would have put the entire song instead because that was a ***** song with great guitar riffs.
Some Might Say:*****- Another classic and their first #1 single in England.
Cast No Shadows:*****- Another personal favorite of mine.
She's Electric:***- I always liked this one for the simplicity of it's lyrics and it's Beatlesque sound.
Morning Glory:*****- This song was just a great one to rock out to.
Champagne Supernova:*****- Classic song and at almost 7 minutes it was an awesome way to close out the album.
All in all I rate the whole album a ****1/2. Now looking back and listening to the b-sides that didn't make the album I would have included the whole Swamp song instead of 2 clips. I would have removed Hey Now and put in Acquiesce. I would have also included The Msterplan as well so the album would look like:
1. Hello
2. Acquiesce
3. Roll With It
4. Wonderwall
5. Don't Look Back in Anger
6. The Swamp Song (in its entirity)
7. Some Might Say

I have light brown morning glory seeds. Does this mean that they weren't fertilized or something?
I have been harvesting morning glory seeds off and on for several years and have never come across light brown ones. I saved them, just in case it was some cool cross-pollination thing, but I was wondering if it was something else.

i don't think so it it just becuase of the lack of sunlight

I need to know more about growing morning glory and moonflower?
I need to know more about growing moonflowers and morning glory. Should I buy then in packets/seeds or in pots? Are they perrenial and how do I plant them? Is it too late to plant them this summer season?I would love waking up seeing those morning glories and would love the scent the moonflower encompassed the evenings.
I need to know more about growing morning glory and moonflower?
I just moved from zone 5 and I can tell you from experience that morning glories like poor, well drained soil.I don't know about moon flowers though.
Don't fertilize morning glories after they are established or you will get a ton of leaves and no blossom. I have found that they don't do well in pots.
Prepare your seed bed by cleaning out the weeds and slightly tilling the soil. Make sure Morning glories have something to climb on like a trellis or they will rot just sitting on the ground. So after you till your soil, stick a trellis in it. Morning Glories have a hard seed pod so you will need to soak them overnight in water before planting. Just distribute the soaked seeds in the prepared bed and using the flat part of a hoe or the palm of your hand, push them in the ground. Keep the dirt moist until they are about 6" tall, after that allow the dirt to dry out before watering. Try getting pink and blue seeds and plant them together for a stunning display! I like to plant 4 o'clocks with morning glories...they can be planted just like the MG's.
Good luck!

Reply:Morning glory is best started from seed in the spring after the frost date. It is not a perennial, except in very warm climates where it doesn't get below freezing during the winter. In Bermuda and other islands it is considered a weed because it never goes away and spreads like crazy.
I wouldn't plant it right now, as it may not overwinter in your zone (here in the south, seed comes up readily from last year's seed), so I would wait until next spring. Morning glory likes to climb things, so be prepared to give it a trellis or something else to climb. It's really easy to grow with seed.
I've never grown moonflower before, though I may do so in the future, so I can't offer any advice on it, except to wait till the spring to grow it from seed.
Reply:Don't know about moon flower, here is a link that should help. Morning glory can be a nightmare even in colder climates.
Visit your local nursery and consider other climbers like clematis, varieties of rose ramblers require v little to no care...
Drive around your neighborhood and see what others have climbing in their yards. Notice how much sunlight the plant gets. If you plant a clematis in a shady area, it will grow like crazy but won't flower for lack of light.
Check the gardenweb forums under vines or perennials; or better yet, start in your region of the country!
Good luck!
Reply:I would give it a try. Get a pack of seeds. If the plants bloom, each flower will dry into a little seed pod and you'll have hundreds of seeds for next season.

How do I collect Morning Glory seeds?
I need to get the seeds from my morning glory plants but I do not know how or what the seed pods look like.
How do I collect Morning Glory seeds?
Morning Glories won't start to seed until late Aug. - Sept. and they seed everywhere. Wherever there was a flower you will find a seed pod they look like small basketballs about the size to the eraser end of a pencil. Let them dry on the stem and then you can pick them. Inside the pod are all the seeds you can either leave them or break them open I don't think it really matters. You can also leave it till the spring when all the growth has died off before picking the pods. Hope this helps
Reply:you buy it from a salesman
Reply:Morning glory seedpods don't usually develop until early fall. Look at this site http://www.craftygardener.ca/infoglory.h... for pictures of seedpods and seeds.
I plant morning glories all over my property and last fall I collected a gallon jar of seeds. Morning glories will also self-seed (you will discover this next spring!).
Reply:You will see little brown/black berry like seeds after the vines die and winter sets in. You have to keep the ugly vines until then. Sorry 'bout that. :o)
I have one vine I will be collectiong from this fall too.

Why does my dog's eyes frequently has "morning glory"?
Morning glory is that sticky whitish discharge of a person's eyes when one wakes up in the morning.
Why does my dog's eyes frequently has "morning glory"?
It could be caused by allergies or dry eyes. One of my dogs has dry eyes and we have to put artificial tears in his eyes a couple of times a day. You could try that but if it doesn't help I would see a vet. Dogs can also get painful eye ulcers that will cause discharge.
Reply:i thought morning glory is when you wake up with an erection?!
the early morning gunk is because your eyes are constantly producing tears with contain a diluted amount of it. as you sleep, the water produced evaporates but the gunk does not, so it concentrates and leaves a residue.
If your dog produces allot it could be that its tear ducts are over active, they are might sense that the eyes need more help than normal. It could be an early sighn of blindness.
Check if you can see a glassy effect in the dogs eyes as this is another sign.

Reply:We all have it- humans and dogs. If it annoys you so much just rub it off your dogs eyes. Try not to tough the eye ball though.

How to harvest morning glory seeds?
I recently planted a couple morning glory's about 1-2 months ago... one has bloomed a few flowers and the fine is climbing up a post... its about a foot long right now but the acutaul plant itself is small... only has about 4 heartshaped leaves. Anyways i was woundering how to collect and keep the seeds of this plant? whats the best way and where are they located on the plant?
How to harvest morning glory seeds?
Pull or clip the seed heads from the plant, holding a bowl or paper bag underneath (if you're saving more than one variety, mark the container to avoid mix-ups). Indoors, open the seed heads over newspaper, discarding the chaff (the seed coverings and other debris). Let the seeds dry on the newspaper in a cool, well-ventilated space for two to three weeks. (We've sometimes skipped this step, and most of our seeds sprouted anyway.)
Meanwhile, decorate your envelopes with photographs of the mature flowers, noting the flower's name and the year grown. Pour in the seeds, seal the envelopes and place them in a plastic container with a lid. Store your seeds in a cool, dry place like your refrigerator or the basement.
Reply:The seeds can simply be picked up off the ground. I have had some that I saved for 5 years in a plastic bag and they still grew when I planted them. They actually re-seed themselves very well and you'll have a bunch coming up around your plant without having to re-seed.
Reply:My mother has morning glory all over her yard. We help her "harvest the seeds" then throw them away because the vine has a tendency to take over everything!!!! And they attract bees.....
Trust me, you don't need to do anything to the plant. The seeds will fall off and it will reseed itself.
Reply:Morning glory seeds contain alkaloids and are very poisonous. The seeds form when the flower falls off. They're will be a small bulb on the flower stem with 6 -8 seeds in it.
Reply:When the flowers turn brown and dry up then pick the dried flower heads and put them in an envelope that you can seal . I then put the sealed envelope in a ziploc bag and put it in a nice cool dry area until spring.
Reply:The fridge is the best place to store your seeds. They need to be soaked
in a paper towel for a day or two before you plant them. I have had great
success with harvesting and replanting. It is a good way to save money
and it feels good to give Mother Nature a helping hand.
Reply:I'd tell you but first I want to know what you're using these seeds for. I suspect you're up to no good if you're wanting to harvest morning glory seeds.

Why is some morning glory considered a weed?
We have been unsuccessful getting ground cover to grow in our rock wall. Suddenly this morning glory is taking over, weaving in and out of the rocks, doing exactly what we want. Everyone says they are weeds. We think they look great. Is there a problem we are unaware of?
Why is some morning glory considered a weed?
this plant is well known as the noxious and extremely invasive weed commonly known as "bindweed" (Convolvulus arvensis -field bindweed, or Convolvulus sepium -hedge bindweed).
it's very prolific, spreads by rhisomes (underground roots) and will wrap around and climb anything that it encounters.
it produces luminous white flowers (some with shades of pink and purple) that are actually quite pretty when you take a good look at them. the flowers blooms last only one day.
if you love them, and they are "doing exactly what [you] want" then enjoy! just hope your neighbours love them just as much!

Reply:If the morning glory is doing what you want it to do, then leave it! I love morning glories and wish I had brought some with me the last time we moved. They can be controlled fairly easily, if need be, but otherwise are beautiful "weeds" when watered and allowed to climb.
When they start to die out this fall, you'll want to remove the dead vines and unless you are really careful, you'll have seeds all over your yard, so I would suggest bagging the dead plants in the area it's growing. I always saved a few seeds, just in case they came up early the next spring and we had a late freeze, I could just plant my seeds after the danger of a freeze was over.
Reply:I learned this a long time ago...
Definition: A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted.
Obviously, if you like it there, it isn't a weed!
There!
Reply:Morning glory is an invasive species. It will choke out other plants. It spreads easily and is difficult to control. It sounds like you are getting what you need from such a plant, so don't worry about it. perfect
Reply:They are considered both a weed and a flower, depending who you are. Farmers don't like them, but some gardeners have them in their garden. If they are growing where you want them, let 'em grow.
Reply:It grows along the road and reseeds itself. Some think of it as a nuisance.
Reply:Weed is a relative term. If you are growing certain types of plants or crops for a certain purpose (i.e. profit, aesthetic value ) and another plant is competing with your crops for water,nutrients, space, and sunshine then that competing plant is a weed. If you enjoy looking at a certain plant and want to propagate it then it is not a weed, because it has aesthetic value for you.
Reply:You probably have "wild morning glory" or bindweed, which is not the same as the pretty morning glories on the seed packets. In my experience, morning glory climbs by curling around structures; bindweed just sticks. I have carefully planted morning glories all over my property, but I uproot the bindweed. But my definition of a weed is "a plant you don't want growing there". If you like 'em, keep 'em. Just keep them thinned out or they WILL take over.

There!
Reply:Morning glory is an invasive species. It will choke out other plants. It spreads easily and is difficult to control. It sounds like you are getting what you need from such a plant, so don't worry about it. perfect
Reply:They are considered both a weed and a flower, depending who you are. Farmers don't like them, but some gardeners have them in their garden. If they are growing where you want them, let 'em grow.
Reply:It grows along the road and reseeds itself. Some think of it as a nuisance.
Reply:Weed is a relative term. If you are growing certain types of plants or crops for a certain purpose (i.e. profit, aesthetic value ) and another plant is competing with your crops for water,nutrients, space, and sunshine then that competing plant is a weed. If you enjoy looking at a certain plant and want to propagate it then it is not a weed, because it has aesthetic value for you.
Reply:You probably have "wild morning glory" or bindweed, which is not the same as the pretty morning glories on the seed packets. In my experience, morning glory climbs by curling around structures; bindweed just sticks. I have carefully planted morning glories all over my property, but I uproot the bindweed. But my definition of a weed is "a plant you don't want growing there". If you like 'em, keep 'em. Just keep them thinned out or they WILL take over.
When to Pick Morning Glory Seeds/Pods?
there are tons of morning glory growing and i was just wondern when do the pods apear with seeds or where do pods grow at on the plant.
When to Pick Morning Glory Seeds/Pods?
Wait until fall, after the flowers die off. They have a brown pod that is easy to pick off. If you have tons, then you'll definately get a lot of seeds. Be careful because sometimes morning glories tend to go crazy and over take everything in the area. Thats what happened to me.
Reply:After the bloom dries up there will be seeds underneath. Pick them in the fall.

Does anyone know how to get rid of morning glory?
I have a large garden and it is being overrun by morning glory. When I put the garden in I was healthy but since then I have developed fibromyalgia. I am limited in what I can now do. Last summer, I didn't do much and in back of our fence there is a green space that has morning glory and blackberries bushes. Because I didn't cut them back as I usually did they have encroached on the yard, both the morning glory and the blackberries grew through the fence and rooted where they touched the ground. So really I need help with both of these problem plants. Did I mention the ivy that is also finding its way into my garden?
Does anyone know how to get rid of morning glory?
All 3 of your problems can be eliminated by using "Brush-B-Gone" or "Brush Killer"...which contains the active ingredient called "TRICLOPYR". It is a selective herbicide that controls broadleaved plants without harming grassy types (including turf).
Triclopyr works very similar to Roundup by killing the roots after spraying the foliage. I've found it to do an excellent job on brush and vine species. When spraying, you should make sure not to spray when the temperatures exceed 80 degrees and to avoid any sprays to get onto ornamental plants and vegetables.
To achieve better results, try mixing a tablespoon of dishsoap into your sprayer AFTER mixing the Triclopyr and water. The dishsoap helps allow more of the mixture to stay on the leaves and the herbicide to move into the plants.
You should begin to see the morning glory, blackberries and ivy turning yellow/wilting 7 days after application.
I wish you the best in your battle against fibromyalgia.
Hope this information helps the problem in your backyard.

Reply:I assume that you are talking about Convolvulus..it is a really nasty weed that only appears in cultivation. It is unknown in the wild. I'm also guessing that maybe you live somewhere near the Pacific Northwest?.. morning glory and ivy and blackberries(himalayan?) are all difficult to control without using chemicals...With your fibromyalgia that may be your only option. good luck.
Reply:Pull the whole thing out. If you cannot. Then use bleach. Water the plant with bleach and it will be dead the following day.
Reply:yikes.... do you have anything in the garden that you want to keep? anything that will come back next year.. my suggestion is repot or replant everything that you want and then spray weed remover and dig all the dirt up destroying all roots... pull everything you want out and then till the whole area.. next year start over.. hopefully you will have gotten rid of everything you dont want.... i have to replant my morning glories every year :( if you dont want to get rid of them try adding more things for the morning glories to climb up on good luck!

What is the best way to prepare morning glory seeds to be injested without using chemicals?
im a stoner, and a fan of natural drugs. i havent used morning glory yet beacuase im looking for a quick easy way to prepare the seeds without using a bunch of crazy chemicals to extract the LSA. so i need a method thats quick, easy, and somewhat hides the taste kuz ive heard they taste awful. and be very specific.

Is there a tolerance factor to ingesting Morning Glory seeds?
The first time I had Morning Glory seeds (90 Heavenly Blues), I ate them on an empty stomach and chewed them well. I was pretty nauseous for a few hours. But once they kicked in, I had a great experience full of hallucinations and euphoria that gradually took about an hour to peak, and lasted roughly 3 hours. I still felt very weird afterwards, but slept it off. The next day I felt a little burnt out but fine.
Ten days later I had the seeds again, in the same manner, but this time I had 30 Heavenly Blues, and about 80 Pearly Gates. I got really sick for the whole day and could not think straight at all. It was very confusing and I had no sense of time. My trip did not peak, but varied from time to time over about 8 hours. The next day I had a fever and was very nauseous, had to stay in bed for most of the day. But I think it's all out of my system now.
I suspect there may be a tolerance factor to these seeds as I had slightly more the second time and experienced less intense effects.
Is there a tolerance factor to ingesting Morning Glory seeds?
This may or may not help you, because I do not know for certain if there is a tolerance factor, but I do know what may have caused your unpleasant second experience. If you purchased the seeds from a hardware store or garden shop, they most likely contain a chemical coating on the outside of the seed. While it is not necessarily harmful, it does cause nausea. The companies producing the seeds have done this as an effort to prevent ingestion of the seeds for recreational purposes.
The first time you ate the seeds, you may have been lucky and bought some without the chemical coating on them, or didnt ingest enough to cause unbearable nausea. The second time, the nausea could be from simply the quantity of seeds you ate, or they may have had the chemical coating whereas your others hadn't.
I doubt that there is a "tolerance" factor to the seeds. The active chemical responsible for the desired effects is LSA, very similar in composition to LSD, although a good deal milder. If you took the seeds on consecutive days, tolerance may be more of an issue.
More than anything, I'd say it has to do with frame of mind, contents of your stomach, and type of seeds (including chemical coating or lack thereof)
Hope this helped

Morning glory question please?
it is getting out of control...with nowhere to vine....if i cut the top of it...will the rest still grow? or will it die?
Morning glory question please?
You can cutt back morning glories all you want to...The yellowing can simply be from the heat of the sun, or watering from above instead from the bottom or a calcium defiency..Sprinkle epsom salt at the base of the plants and then slightly water it in..it will brighten the leaves up...use about a cup for every 4 feet of ground that the morning glories are planted in..
Reply:cutting back your vine will not effect its growth in any negative way-it will help to thicken it up if anything.
The yellowing may be a deficiency, are the older leaves are yellowing first? If so, try fertilizing it with a nitrogen rich fertilizer, one for lawns/palms etc would be fine. Use a soluble product (one that is a powder that you mix with water) so as the plant can absorb it immediately.
Reply:Hi,
I dont think it will hurt your vine to trim it back some I have trimmed mine back for years and it dont hurt them ,its hard to kill a morning glory, if you have leaves yellowing it may be the runners are wrapping to tight around the branch and chocking it, if so cut the runner and remove it
Reply:don't fertilize a morning glory...you'll get lotsa leaves and little if any flowers......glories are plants of the field, where there's rarely anything like fertilzers!!!....they do best with less fussin'....
Reply:yes. in fact if you cut the top a bit it will grow much thicker with many more flowers also it will grow a bit shorter, but wider

Morning glory grinding?
I have no machine i can use to grind them and i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to grind them i tried smashing them with a hammer but they just shoot off
Morning glory grinding?
Maybe the seeds are trying to tell you something. First check out www.EROWID.com. Then use a coffee grinder or soak them overnite and chew, chew, chew. I knew a guy that used the coffee grinder in the grocery store, just don't get caught. When I tried them I got nothing out of it. RScott
Reply:I soak mine for a couple of days, then put them between 2 layers of sandpaper and rub the sheets together. It must work, or I wouldn't have Morning Glory crawling all the way up the staircase outside my apartment every Summer.
I have also had success just planting the seeds in the late fall, before the ground freezes. They have all winter to soften up, and when Spring comes, they start popping out of the ground. I discovered this about 5 years ago. I didn't plant any seeds at all, and they came up where I had planted them the year before and didn't pull out the old plants or remove the flowers from the fence--they reseeded themselves. Now I just dig in a few seeds here and there in November and I have a great crop of Morning Glories come Summer Be sure to mix in some Moonflowers, they look awesome together, since the Morning Glories open during the day, and the Moonflowers at night.

Whats the difference between an Acid Trip and a Trip on Morning Glory seeds?
What is the difference? A story my father told me of a friend of his back in the 60's took acid. After about a half an hour his buddy stood in front of his bathroom mirror and removed all his skin, muscles, circulatory system, organs, till there was nothing but some flesh hanging off his bones. He set all of himself on the top of the toilet bowl and when he came to put his body back together he couldn't. He was eventually caught by the police at 2:00 in the morning barking at traffic on Sunset Blvd. Is one safer than the other and which one is more dangerous if used improperly?

Reply:Acid Trip is wayyy more powerfull than a Trip on Morning Glory seeds. Its farrrr more expensive but gives a greater experience. Morning Glory seeds are legal and you can buy them at a hardware store, so they are cheep but not as effective when you smoke them. With all drugs come danger and you can die if you use any drug improperly. Acid will most likley do more damage. I dont see how you can use them "improperly" because its not legal but its your choice. You have the information but just be careful dude. You see what happened to your dad's friend. It really doesn't pay to be arrested or far worse, killed from a substance that will give you a small time of pleasure. it really can f*ck up your life.

"Morning erections are a normal part of male physiology. In fact, when doctors are trying to determine whether or not a man's erectile dysfunction is physiological or psychological, they will often apply a nocturnal tumescence monitor, which monitors the presence and duration of erections during the night. Several things can cause morning erections. One, as the bladder fills during the night, it tends to trigger a spinal reflex that can cause erection. Also, the congestion caused by the full bladder can decrease the outflow of blood from the penis. There are aspects of normal sleep cycling that tend to induce erection as well.
Dr Tim: Erections are mostly controlled by the autonomic nervous system. The parasympathetic part functions during relaxed states. Erections actually occur when men are in relaxed states (you don't need blood going to your penis when you are running from a lion) and early morning is simply one of the most relaxed states."

Will goats get sick if they eat morning glory [ Ipomoea sp.] or passion flower vines [Passiflora]?
We need to plant some fast growing vines against a wired -screened area and are considering Passion flowers and the Morning glories ... we have two pet dwarf Nigerian goats who could reach the vines and possibly nibble on them. Are they poisonous/ at risks??!!
Will goats get sick if they eat morning glory [ Ipomoea sp.] or passion flower vines [Passiflora]?
no problem in the poison department. the morning glory is in the sweet potato family and the passion flower often can put out small eatable fruit.
the real problem is the goats. my ex mother-in-law had several dwarf nigerian goats. the ate everything that grew within reach as fast as it came out of the ground. i don't think your vines stand a chance.
Reply:no..they might jst be mournin 4 the rest of their glory life
Reply:no they will be ok!my horses,cows and goats eat mine when they grow to the other side of my fence into the pasture and they have been fine!
Reply:ask a vet
Reply:Ipomoea seeds are very toxic %26amp; they produce lots of seeds. Passiflore have an edible fruit but most are not hardy below 40 degrees. Check out clematis with 200 species %26amp; 400 cultivars , growing in zones 4-9. I have a local variety that was started from seed, is evergreen %26amp;very hardy,with small white flowers. Find out what your neighbors have. Good Luck

Morning glory plants have beetles. Help What will keep them away?
I did some research and can't find info on this particular beetle. Lots of sites told how many different beetles like these plants, but none said how to stop them from coming to my plants.I've never seen beetles like this before and I've grown Mor Glory for 3 years. Any suggestions? At this point I'm even open to insecticide although it would be my last choice.

There is a spray called Sevin. It works pretty well and you can find it at Lowe's, Home Depot, or similar stores.

Do you have to plant moonflower seeds with Morning glory seeds?
I just started planting MG seeds and i notice people talking about both and not just one. do you have to plant them together?Is it possible to plant morning glories in a condo apartment?
Do you have to plant moonflower seeds with Morning glory seeds?
absolutely not. Plant your MF seeds where you'll be watching them at night. Plant your MG's where you can see them in the mornings. For instance, by your patio for you to admire during late cookouts for MF's and outside your breakfast nook for MG's.
Reply:You can definitely plant them separately, but once you plant morning glories, you will have them forever!!! They can get way out of control and invade other plants with their vines. Just be careful. Moonflowers on the other hand are beautiful and less invasive. They are self seeders which die off at the end of the season and return in the spring. I love the moonflowers, not so much the morning glories, or four-o-clocks.

Moonvine Morning Glory?
I planted moonvine morning glories in a long narrow planter and its climbing up a trellis however it really hasnt started branching at all. Its one long vine. I have read articles of pinching back the vine to promote branching. Does anyone have any expierence from this? Or is it a myth?
Moonvine Morning Glory?
Mine grow without much help at all. Plenty of water with well drained soil. I don't pick up any dropped flowers, I let them stay and it reseeds itself. It should grow on it's own. As for pinching, I've not seen it help nor hinder. I cut mine back to the ground every winter as it dies off and each spring, it's all over and doubled up.
You may want to clip a starter and root it in a vase then plant it among the other. Takes about a week to get it started.

How to get rid of Morning Glory Flowers?
I planted them a couple years along a wooden fence at the back of a cutting garden at my fathers house. Now he can't grow anything because the morning glories choke and smother everything....
How do I get rid of them without harming the ability to plant flowers for cutting?
I've tried weeding with a frenzy every couple of days - but there seems to be no end in sight.

I have the same problem. I refuse to use weed spray so I just go out everyday and rip them up. I'm finding fewer and fewer. Arrrgh, they're so pretty but so freakin' obnoxious!
Reply:I live in the east, and love Morning glories. They're an annual here. I didn't know they were so invasive. They seem pretty easy to rip up.
Reply:I had the same problem with wild berries in my yard. The only thing I found that worked was digging them up. Every bit of root that I could get ahold of. Each spring they were fewer and fewer, but now they're gone forever. Fight a persistant weed with persistance.
Reply:weed killer such as "Round-Up" once temps have reached 80* will do it. Just wait at least 2 wks. before planting anything %26amp; be sure to do on a NON_WINDY day-so as to not have over-spray harm any plants or grasses you do want to keep.
Check manuf. link below for any further info.
Reply:the roundup idea is a good answer. you may want to use something like 2-4-D in the summer to keep them from going to seed and then use roundup after a good frost. the white ones you mentioned are a bad weed and it goes by several names with morning glory being just one of them. they are either field (small flowers) or hedge (larger flowers) bindweed and ate on most states obnoxious weed list
Reply:Dig them up, thin them out, rototill them every year. Do not let them go to seed for the next season. Weed killer, although I don't like pesticides so I just use the elbow grease with persistence.

Are morning glory [blue flowers/vine] easy2grow? will they climb a fence nicely?
and HOW MANY blooms within a foot space do you get?
never have grown them, am starting them from seed indoors 1st.
Live in NY and now's the time to start seedlings.
Today was the 1st warm day of this spring 2008!! :o)
Most of my variety of flowers are warmer colors [some reds, yellows,ect] and pinks too.\need blue in there!
anyway, am hoping the blue morning glories cover a large amount of space up all over the fence--to cover quite nicely w/lots of BLOOMS { :--D
pls advise.

Are morning glory [blue flowers/vine] easy2grow? will they climb a fence nicely?
Morning Glories are great for covering a large space. I've heard people say that you can never get rid of them after planting but I've never had them come back, always have to replant. I grew some under a cedar tree that had been trimmed of branches until about 10 feet off the ground. Last year the morning glories climbed the tree and went up into the branches. I had no idea they'd go that far, it was pretty spectacular and they were covered with blooms every morning. I think if you spaced them every 6-8' along the fence they'll cover nicely. I started mine inside in the little peat pots. Then I put those directly in terra cotta pots (probably 10" diameter) that I busted the bottoms out of and filled in around them with potting soil. That got the seedlings off to a nice start without competing with weeds/grass, but as they grew the roots could go down into the yard. Turn the soil over underneath the pot then place them at least four inches down into the soil. Mine were covered with blooms, more blooms than leaves.
Reply:plant them a couple inches apart and it will fill in great
I plant them around my back deck, and they go crazy there, just make sure they get enough sun and you may need to train them to climb in the begining, but once they start going, they won't stop.
remember to collect the seeds in the fall
good luck and happy planting, these are my favorite!

Morning glories don't transplant well, so you would be better off soaking them for 24 hours, nick them with a blade, and then either use peat pellets or directly sow them in the ground.
Good Luck
Reply:just throw them down wherever you want them.....they're impossible to kill though..we had them and we mowed them over millions of times...ALWAYS came back
Reply:As long as the threat of frost has passed in your area, you're fine. Morning glories are very easy to grow. Just get the variety you like (I love the "Heavenly Blue" hybrid), soak the seed overnight (they have a VERY hard seed coat), and plant. I like to plant morning glories as early as possible; they close up during the day when it's warm out, so the sooner they grow, the more time I will have to actually SEE them blooming, as it will stay cooler longer during the day.
Be sure to give them a place to climb, as they are vining plants, of course. I have some lattice that I got at Home Depot, but even string will work :-)
Enjoy!
Reply:It should say on the packet which months you can plant them.
Plant them in really big pots, and place the pots by your balcony. The pots will provide the soil and ground, and since Morning Glory is a vine, it will grow on anything that you put it near.
P.S. - that will look BEAUTIFUL!
Reply:fall asleep after makig love to a moose, then realize that you forgot to dampen the soil before you planted the seeds, morning glories are best grown in damp, super fertile soil
Reply:You need to soak the seeds overnight and then plant one or two seeds per cup (plastic cup with a hole in bottom). Keep it inside in a sunny window, (on a tray or plate) watering when needed. Then when they come up, thin to only one plant per cup. When they get to be about 6 or more inches long, you can transplant them outside (in a pot) in a sunny location. I love this time of year!!! It's still cold (40 degrees) where I live, so I have to wait a bit. Actually, I probably could start now...if I keep all my seeds inside. Have fun!

I don't know if anyone would know this without making an experiment to test all of these. Morning glories are really easy to grow and I bet they wouldn't care what type of water they had, as long as they have enough and reasonably good soil.

I bought 4 ounces of Morning Glory seeds and I am unsure if I bought chemically treated seeds. Is there a way to see if the seeds have been contaminated? I purchased them from www.bouncingbearbotanicals.com if anyone is familiar with their seeds.
Is there a way to see if a Morning Glory seed has been chemically treated?
Morning Glory seeds have to be chemically treated or they won't germinate. In the wild, they have to go through the intestines of birds or other animals before they will be able to germinate. In order to duplicate that process, it has to go through a chemical treatment.
Reply:Morning glory seeds that have been chemically treated will be coated with a powdery substance, usually pink which is an antifungal agent. If it is just dark brown or black, chances are that it is untreated.
In answer to the first responder to your question, morning glory seeds DO NOT have to be chemically treated in order to sprout. Seeds that have fallen to the ground from the previous season's vine will automatically sprout when the weather warms up. It DOES NOT need scarification - either physical or chemical by way of animal intestines in order to sprout.
Reply:As far as I know, there is no way to tell. If that site said they were organic or untreated, then that probably means they weren't treated with dyes or other chemicals. If seeds have been treated, there is no way to wash off the chemicals.

Reply:As far as I know, there is no way to tell. If that site said they were organic or untreated, then that probably means they weren't treated with dyes or other chemicals. If seeds have been treated, there is no way to wash off the chemicals.
Does the cocoa shell mulch prevent flowers on morning glory vines?
my morning glory vine looks great but no flowers. The only differance this year is the addition of cocoa shell mulch.
Does the cocoa shell mulch prevent flowers on morning glory vines?
it is deffinately not the mulch. I would have to say that the cocoa mulch is useless as it washes away with rain, blows away with wind, and doesn't even smell very much.
It does have its place in the small sheltered perennial garden because it decomposes faster than bark does.
Ipomea species tend to need 6-8 hours of sun and like moist but well drained conditions. If it is not getting those condidtions it could have enough energy to get through the first year with flowers but not enough to come back the second with flowers.
Have you fertilized it? It could have depleted the soils phosphorus levels last year and need another shot to get it flowering again.
Reply:First, beware of that mulch, dogs find it delicious and it instantly kills them. As for the flowers, I'd say it was too cool and too dark.
Reply:was the mulch well rotted? if it was fresh the mulch will be taking nitrogen out of the soil to compose feed up the vines with some slow release fert

How can I get rid of wild morning glory or is this an immposibility?
I am working on a garden of native plants. all are doing great but I also have wild morning glory that I weed out everyday to prevent it from strangling everybody else. Any way to get rid of it?
How can I get rid of wild morning glory or is this an immposibility?
Not sure how much wild morning glory you currently have in your garden but... if it's among the plants you want to keep, you'll have to make a mixture of Roundup and water.... then use a narrow/thin paintbrush to apply this mix to the proper target and avoid killing your landscape plants. Make sure you apply as much of the herbicide solution to the leaves as you can to insure adequate wetting.
Here's another helpful hint; try mixing the Roundup and water WITH a foliar fertilizer (such as Miracle Gro). The Miracle Gro (fertilier) actually tricks the leaves (stomata) into accepting more of the solution than normal.
GOOD LUCK!
Reply:Try digging deeper to get the whole root out...or maybe spray weedkiller on it.
Reply:Follow these steps:
1. Pull all the large M.G. plants.
2. Squirt left over and new weeds with premixed Roundup spray. You can find this at any hardware store.
3. If you find that it is to difficult to spray the Roundup because other plants are to close use a piece of cardboard to protect other plants while you spray the weeds. Roundup can also be brushed on with a small paint brush.
In time you should be able to rid yourself of morning glory but it will take time, patients, and perseverance.
Reply:Roundup works best in these situations, spray it at the base.
Reply:When they die off you have to remove the vine and spray weed killer. Do this after everything else has died for the winter.
Reply:morning Glory's are one of Those plants just like ivy you have to kill them at the roots and make sure that the seeds remaining do not germinate you can try weed killers and digging them up but this may take several times they are not prone to grow in acidic soil try a weed killer that has less of a base ingredient listed first on the label. good luck
Reply:Morning glory roots can go as deep as 6 feet, We use a product in this state called Curtail, it is a broad leaf selective. I would call your local Soil extension Office, they will be able to tell you what is available and effective in your area. In Colorado it is one of the those weeds we all fight. The SOC will help you and give you all kinds of info, it is there job and they take weeds like morning glory( called bindweed here)
very seriously. You can not ever pull all the roots up you can stop it with the proper selective spray. There is also a mite that you Can get from the SCO that attacks and kills the bindweed. I have not used it but I hear it is very effective and environmentally friendly. You do have to battle it for a very long time the seeds can stay in the soil for many years.
Good luck

Reply:Your wild morning glory is probably what is called bind weed. It vines all over the place with a tiny white morning glory like flower and is very hard to get rid of. If you try to pull them up you only get a very small piece and the majority of the root is left underground to multiply. The best way to get rid of them is with round out, being very careful not to get it on your other plants. It will go to the root and kill the plant.
Reply:Roundup!
Reply:I had this problem too....it was actually killing the tree it was climbing....I had to dig it up and then use root killer
Reply:Not only do the roots go deep (I've read up to ten feet), the seed can remain viable for several years. Try a combination of spraying with Roundup, then pulling a few days later. Don't even bother trying to get the roots when you pull, even if you just break them off, you will weaken the plant. You have to keep at it and if you live in a climate like we have here in Western Washington, you will probably never be completely rid of it.
