Well, that's a new one on me! I would post ASAP on the Vines Forum. There are very nice people there who know everything there is to know about vines including vinegar and transplant questions. Good luck and let us know what happens.

Thanks for getting back to me.

My boyfriend helped me transplant them. Three more were dead, so there's only two left. :( I'm very upset about this.

Thankfully, the biotch is moving in a month or so, but I still have plants to worry about. Isn't it sad how a woman who's supposed to be my step-mother is so sick and twisted? I could talk all day about the bad things she's done, but I'd like to do my best to try to move on.

You mean the vinegar was on PURPOSE? Good lord. Well, a month will fly by. If I harvest any seeds from mine, I would be happy to send them to you. Ipomoea is all over the seed exchange in the fall.

People do the oddest things.

I would think vinegar would too be harmful, after all it is an acidic!! Check that dirts PH and see. Bet that's the sourest dirt in town! I hope that she thought it was water, if it was apple cider vinegar, that's brown, no mistake there and besides the smell, mabe her sniffer just doesn't work anymore and she can't read labels. I'd hate to think she did that on purpose, if she did, keep yer ole eye open for the next 30 days sister, imagine what she could do with Clorox!!!
