For pots placed outside, it is important to drill holes in the bottom, so the excess water can drain and the planter does not break during frost. Drill several holes in the bottom of the pot. Use an 8-10 mm drill bit. The number of holes depends on the size of the item. To prevent the drill from slipping, you can put duct tape on the place where you want to drill. Tip: Cover the holes with gauze or old pot shards so they cannot get clogged.
Pot feet will keep your plants healthy by limiting overwatering, shielding them from harmful frosts, and keeping insects and hungry gastropods at bay. Pot feet may also help protect your outdoor surfaces from rot and molds, such as decking. Make sure that planters without feet are placed slightly from the ground. This can be achieved by placing loose pot feet or a saucer under the planter.
If you do place the planter directly on the surface, it is recommended to drill the holes in the side of the planter, about 5 to 10 centimeters above the surface.
