I have some moonflower plants growing outside. For the first six weeks indoors they did great.

But since they've been outside most of the larger leaves have gotten progressively limper and paler and thinner.

I hardened them off appropriately alongside scarlet runners, tomatoes, marigolds, and Clitoria (all of whom are doing great) so I don't think it's over-exposure to the sun.

I'm guessing it might be cold damage as it has hovered around 50ºF some nights and once or twice has gotten down to 48º.

Can anybody confirm this or provide your own feedback?

This is my first year attempting moonflower so I'm pretty much sailing unknown seas here.
Keep going!
