Not enough filtered light - over or under watering...
The holes in the sweet potato gone are likely from slugs. Sprinkle a small amount let on the soil, or buy slug bait at your garden center.
Make sure you are providing the environment each individual plant needs. Group all plants that need shade or filtered sun together. They may need to be placed under small decorative garden decor. Remember that morning sun is less intense than afternoon sun. Watering deeply but less often is better than just a quick sprinkle every day. Watering deeply but less often causes the plant to be deep rooted, and it can handle stress better.
It sounds like 9/11 changed your lighting. If you went from filtered light to full light, you can only change the type of plant that will grow there.
