00:0010 signs your vining plants need some love. They're not climbing like they should. If vines

00:07sprawl or stall, supports are unsuitable, so provide thin, grippable structures and gently

00:13train tendrils upward. Leaves are turning yellow. Yellowing often signals over-watering, poor

00:20drainage, or nutrient deficiency, so adjust watering, improve drainage, and feed with

00:25balanced organic fertilizer. No flowers or flowers that fizzle fast. Sparse or aborted blooms

00:34indicate inadequate light, excess nitrogen, or mistimed pruning, so provide six hours of sun

00:41and no bloom wood. Tendrils are wilting or browning. Wilting or browning tendrils suggest dehydration

00:50or sun scorch, especially in containers, so water deeply during heat and mulch to retain moisture.

00:57The stem looks spindly or weak. Spindly, weak stems indicate low light or unsupported rapid growth,

01:05so improve light, add sturdy guides, and pinch tips for branching. Pests are nesting in the foliage.

01:12Dense foliage hides aphids, mites, or caterpillars, so inspect undersides and use water sprays, neem,

01:20predators, improve airflow, and avoid evening watering. The vine is root-bound in its pot.

01:27Stalled growth, dull leaves, and quick drying indicate root binding, so check circling roots

01:33and repot larger with fresh soil, teasing roots outward. They are not attracting pollinators.

01:40Few pollinators suggest insufficient sun, blooms, or plant diversity, so choose native vines and add

01:47companion flowers to create consistent nectar. New growth looks twisted or deformed. Twisted,

01:54stunted tips indicate stress, pests, or herbicide drift, so inspect carefully, adjust the site, prune

02:01damaged growth, mulch, and water consistently. The base of the vine is browning or rotting. Browning

02:10mushy bases signal rot from over-watering or poor drainage, so prune damaged areas, improve drainage,

02:16treat fungus, or propagate.
