Plant morning glory 8 to 12 inches apart. Propagating morning glory vine: Start new vines from seed. Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours before planting to speed germination. In the North, earlier bloom can be achieved by starting indoors in peat pots 4 to 6 weeks before planting out. Germination takes 5 to 7 days at 70 to 80 degrees Fahrenheit.
Purchase or gather morning glory seeds. Buy packaged seeds, or collect the seedpods from a friend's morning glory plant. As morning glory flowers die, they leave behind round seed pods at the base of the flower stem. The pods are ready to pick when they turn papery and brown, and contain dark brown or black seeds. Morning glories cross-pollinate, meaning that the seeds will not necessarily look much like the parent once they grow.
