Hi everyone:

My sweet potato plant is looking very sick.

It was heavily infested with aphids and mites. They have been exterminated. At least the aphids are completely gone, and I cannot see the webs of the mites anymore.

On the process of cleaning it, it lost all its leaves. New leaves came out and I was very happy, but as soon as they grow a little they start curling very tightly. The surface starts getting shiny. The borders get soft and then they wither and die.

I notice that their colour is lighter than what it should.

I know it is probably a virus transmitted by the aphids, but could it be any of the following?

- temperature (it is winter in here now. I keep my place warm but it is colder than before

- lack of sun (there is no sun on this time of the year)

- irrigation (I watter until the watter comes from the bottom. I notice, though, that the ground rarely gets dry. It is always moist)

- lack of food (I just fertilized it two weeks ago)

Thanks in advance.
