The buds are falling off my hibiscus plants. What am I doing wrong?
You are not doing anything wrong. You likely have thrips. The are tiny insects that can attack the base of flowers and they are particularly attracted to hibiscus. This article will help:

In 110 temperatures, my two hibiscus plants' leaves are withering. Am I over watering daily? Should they be put in some shade? They are potted.
In that kind of heat, you are likely underwatering. They will need to be watered twice a day at least. They will use water quickly. Placing them in a shaded location will help reduce the heat stress on them.
I want to grow my own hibiscus and I have several seeds off the plants I already have.

I have several Hibiscus bushes but one has recently started looking like the leaves are wilting. I dug down into the soil and found hundreds of tiny blue bead looking things all through the soil. What can it be? Maybe something from the bag of potting soil I put in my large container in the spring? It has done very well since March until just the past week or so. Could this be my problem? Help. . . I don't want to lose this one. It's my only yellow one. Thank you so very much for your assistance.
The blue beads are fertilizer capsules in the potting soil. They dissolve over time and are what makes the soil "time released" with fertilizer.
Potting soil can sometimes dry out to the point where it actually repels water. I would try flooding the container to make sure that the soil is properly hydrated and ready to take water in.
I planted my hibiscus in the spring and it has done beautifully all summer. What about getting it through the winter?
Hardy hibiscus can usually survive winter outdoors but in cooler regions (up to zone 5) will need additional protection, such as mulch and wrapping. As long as you can give it added protection during extreme freezing conditions (and as long as you don't have the tropical type-which need to be inside over winter), it should be ok. The tropical varieties are the ones that require growth indoors over winter.
What is the best soil type to plant Hibiscus in please?
Hibiscus usually prefers a soil pH between 6.0 and 7.0.
Hibiscus plants need fertile, well-draining soil, preferably with a bit of organic matter (like compost) mixed in.
Hi Nikkie - do Hibiscus prefer sweet soil or acid? what balance is best?
Where do seeds from a hibiscus plant come on, if you want the seed?
They are in the seedpods that form from the dead flowers. This article will help with growing them from seed (at bottom): https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/hibiscus/hibiscus-propagation.htm
