My jicama sprouted before I could eat it and my curiosity and love of plants took over so I let it grow. I know it's a vine and is supposed to have showy flowers but I have no idea if I can keep it growing to the point of blooming. It has some big 3-part leaves and it's vining away (hope I have room) but the tuber/bulb is shrinking. I water it cautiously. Now what?

It has red petals on it if it ever grows big enough. Should I be fertilizing it or will it burn it up. I thought it was going to die at 1st, but it has rallied and now is showing green leaves. The sun is about 4 feet away. I don't know what to do with it to protect it and make it grow up beautiful. Any suggestions. I live in east central Illinois and it was about 96 degrees here today.

We have cocoa shell mulch in our front garden and there are gnats (or some other very tiny insect) all over the windows near the garden. I am trying to identify the source so that I can get rid of the insects. Thanks!

I noticed tiny black dots on the undersides of my basil plants, there's a bit of a webby stuff on some of the plants as well... not sure if its from the bugs or from a spider. What are these tiny bugs, they crawl, haven't seen them fly yet and how do i get rid of them? preferably organically ?

There is a yellow substance in my garden in the morning. This substance is quite a large mass, smells like plant material but looks like some sort of animal threw it up. Any idea's what it could be? It has been there a few times a week all month. Years ago, at another home, had the same thing.
