How to fertilize Wild Cotton Plant
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Wild Cotton Plant after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Im growing a morning glory plant , how many times of day should I water it !?

Are these aphid eggs #aphids #sweetpotatovine My sweet potato plant has been recovering from a green aphid infestation that caused him to lose all his leaves over winter (or maybe he was just hibernating lol). I ended up treating it with a pyrethrin solution at the start of spring, and he's doing great now, growing super fast. I have, however, noticed these odd protruding dots on some of his leaves. I read that aphids only lay eggs in winter, but I am not sure what else these could be. Does anyone know if these are actually eggs, and how I should help my plant out with this?

Hi friends! I noticed these little white grain-y things on most of my sweet potato vines' leaves, and I was just wondering what they were. They don't appear to be on the younger/newer leaves, so is this an okay/common thing for sweet potatos?! Thanks! #SweetPotatoVine

Why are the leaves brown Hello, I’m needing some help with figuring out what’s going on with my Doja Cat. She’s an oriental sweet potato vine that I propagated from a cutting. I had her outdoors for the most part since I started propagating her but moved her inside because her leaves kept getting brown and falling off. Was the sun the cause? I’ve only had her inside for a few days but she’s a lot perkier and doesn’t require as much water. Thanks a lot. #SweetPotatoVine #HappyPlants

Wilting? ive been growing morning glories from seed and they’ve been trying to bloom for about a month or two but every time they do they open for 1 day, close the next, and then shrivel up the next. ive even changed how much i fertilize because ive read that it could be that, but it hasnt helped at all.
