I need to know which type of water grows the plant morning glory(ipomoea amnicola) the fastest..rain water,tap water,distilled water,and mineral water.
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
Reply:Idont know but it does kill dogs like chocolate

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.

The difference between this plant and a morning glory plant is that the leaves on this are longer and narrower, and the notch of the leaf, where the stem attaches, is a U-shape instead of a V-shape.

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.

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

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"?
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.
Reply:it's normal, just get a damp towel and wipe it off. But if it is real bad, ask your vet
Reply: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.

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.

Reply:This looks like a Giant Dahlia variation, with some applique added. Check the first link for some examples of Giant Dahlia quilts. You need to either buy templates or create your own. Marti Michell sells a set of acrylic templates (second link).

Will 3 grams of morning glory seeds give me a good solid trip?
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.
your best bet is doing further research on erowid.com
Reply:do you mean the morning glory that is the flower
or is this some new drug that i have not heard of???
Reply:dude please dont do that to yourself, ive heard its a kinda painful trip. there are better ways man, just be patient.
Reply:I've taken considerably more with little effect but when I took them with an equal amount of harmala seed (aka Syrian rue) presto a trip! Check out a site called EROWID for the real dope! I'm an old hippie 55 that still likes to trip every year or two on either mushrooms or San Pedro cactus. Would like to try XTC but unable to find any, you kids seem to keep them to yourselves. I'm telling you all of this to keep you as safe as I can because I know your going to do it anyway. RScott

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 have light brown morning glory seeds. Does this mean that they weren't fertilized or something?
i don't think so it it just becuase of the lack of sunlight

Oasis - (Whats The Story) morning glory? fav songs?
rate the songs from (Whats The Story) morning glory?
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
8. Cast No Shadow
9. She's Electric
10. Morning Glory
11. Champagne Supernova
12. The Masterplan

JackAss or Rover's Morning Glory Dare Dieter who do you prefer?
Who listens to Dare Dieter Fridays? Who is better Dieter or JackAss?
Dare Dieter is what caught my ear and I have been listening ever since to Rovers Morning Glory. He won me over with the tongue on the bug zapper!
He freighted the heck out of me this week with the bear trap this week, here is the link to the video of it http://www.roverradio.com/index.php?opti...
Go to the Dare Dieter's link to see some of his dares. This guy is unreal.

Dieter is stupid! Yes his dares are somewhat interesting. But you were right when you said this guy is unreal. You cant belive ANYTHING that comes out of his stupid mouth!

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.

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:it depends on where you live, but it's a little late to plant them outdoors. i would just get a pot. it will tell you how to plant and take care of them on the packet of seeds.
Reply:Morning glory look nice at first BUT they come back worse than weeds years later. The neighbor planted then along the fence a few years ago and now I have them all over the garden. They can grow and choke out other plants you have growing. They looked nice at first but now they are a pain.

This should give you all the information you need for both
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.
