How to fertilize Mexican Morning Glory

Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Mexican Morning Glory after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

put a cutting of this morning glory in water three days ago. no sign of rooting yet but one of the buds bloomed this morning. I'm excited to see it of course, but does that bode well for the plant? in terms of growth, I mean.
