Morning Glory Sprouting but dying?

My morning glory seeds are all sprouting, they were doing so well, they had a nice green healthy color, and were standing upright and just 3 days after they began to sprout thety started laying in the soil, the stems are still greensih purple, but they seem to be closing up.





Are they dying?





It has been raining for 3 days and so there was no sun, could that be the problem? What should I do, I want these seeds to turn into a flower for my baby girl,





just today she said mommy they are dying.





Any help please.

It sounds like they might have damping-off disease. See: http://tomclothier.hort.net/page13.html


Usually this is a problem with seeds started indoors and watered too much. Probably they have been killed by the cool wet weather. If you are in the north east, it has been cold this past few days. You should wait until at least mid-May in Massachusetts to plant morning glories.





I suggest you just plant some more seeds and hope the weather is better for them. Gardening often has gotchas like this and we just have to try again.
Reply:Most people wait until after Mother's Day to plant seeds. The night temps need to be between 68 and 70 degrees for seeds to do well. Start over again later.
