There is nothing quite as satisfying as planting a few seeds and watching them take off and cover a large area in just a month s time. You can sow your vines a week to ten days after your last frost date directly where they are to grow, or you can give them a head start by sowing them indoors in six packs. Start indoor plants just before the frost-free date and transplant them to the garden once they have their second set of true leaves. Be careful not to disturb the roots during transplanting. Whether you are planting them indoors or out make sure to keep the seeds evenly moist until germination and then provide about an inch of water a week once they are a foot tall.
Annual vines thrive in full sun with well-drained soil.
2- 3 times throughout the growing season. Your plants will need to have support as soon as they begin to grow. If your plants cannot be planted right next to the structure that will hold them when they are grown, you will need to provide a ladder for the vine to reach the structure. Take a large twig and put it into the ground right beside the plant the wrap some twine around the tip of the twig and connect it to the structure. This will allow the plant to bridge the gap between the two and cover the structure more rapidly.
