Morning glory grows beautifully on the balcony

Morning glory is an exquisite plant, its flowers are surprisingly delicate and beautiful. In most cases, morning glory is grown in open ground. Considering the fact that the plant likes to weave, clinging to the walls of the gazebo or simply to the fence, morning glory is planted in places where it can easily find support for growth.

I really like morning glory, it’s a beautiful flower, and it doesn’t require any special conditions for growing. The only thing she doesn’t like is being under the scorching rays of the summer sun all day long. The plant prefers partial shade.

I once tried to grow morning glory in an apartment. I took regular seeds, the same ones I sow outside. I bought the soil at the store and made good drainage. I sown the seeds one at a time in a pot, the small plants were in the apartment for some time. I doubted for a long time whether morning glory would grow on the balcony, but then I finally took the risk and brought it out when it was already quite warm outside.

The balcony in our apartment is located very well for growing flowers - on the eastern side, the sun shines on it only in the morning, before 11 o'clock. To create support for the plant, I used a net, which the plant wrapped itself very beautifully as it grew.

For more active growth, the plant was watered once every ten days with the addition of saltpeter (at the rate of 1 teaspoon per 3 liters of water). When I noticed that buds appeared, I switched to fertilizing with NPK complex fertilizer.

My morning glory on the balcony bloomed amazingly beautifully, flowering continued until frost.It’s a shame that the plant is an annual plant, although I’ve seen in comments on forums that morning glory in an apartment continues to grow in winter as if nothing had happened.
My experience of growing morning glory in an apartment in winter ended in failure - most likely the plant experienced a lack of lighting.
