Did I hurt my morning glories?

Question

I am an amateur gardener and I was growing morning glories in pots. I put two in the same pots and nowI wanted to separate them because they were getting long, and when I was separating them, I accidentally ripped some roots. Are they gonna be okay? Will they die cos of the lack of roots?

Answer 1

It may have been best to wait until they were dormant to divide the plants.

Morning Glories can be very hardy, so they likely will recover with some time. Avoid over soggy soil.
