Garden Pests and Diseases: I need to find out what is happening to my morning glories!!, 1 by aehumphrey

I have a huge pot that has a very big and vibrant morning glory vine growing from it. However, the bottom most leaves on the vine are always eaten away with holes. I live in central Louisiana, and the sun is very hot so I water the plant twice a day (early morning, and early evening). If I don't water it this often then the leaves start to wilt. The problem I'm most concerned with is why are the leaves getting holes? Is there some kind of insect eating them? When I inspect the leaves, I never see any kind of insect. Is it a fungus? Today I bought some Sevin brand insecticide that is supposed to be safe for plants, but I wanted to do some research first. Any help would be appreciated greatly!! :-)
