FAQs

What type of wood is used for these planters?

The planters are made from solid pine wood, known for its natural beauty and rustic appearance.

Do I need to assemble the planters?

Yes, assembly is required for these garden planters.

Is the wood treated or untreated?

The wood is untreated, meaning it's in its natural state and requires protection from the elements for durability.

What are the dimensions of each planter?

Each planter measures 31 cm in width, 31 cm in depth, and 31 cm in height (W x D x H).

How can I protect the wood from weathering?

You can protect the wood by applying a suitable outdoor wood sealant, stain, or paint before use and reapplying as needed.

Can these planters be used indoors?

While they can be used indoors, their primary design is for outdoor use. If used indoors, ensure proper protection against water leakage and consider using a waterproof liner.

What is the warranty period for these planters?

These garden planters come with a 2-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Planter wobbles after assembly

Ensure all screws and connectors are tightened securely. Check that all wooden pieces are aligned correctly before final tightening.

Wood appears to be weathering or rotting quickly

The planter is untreated and requires a protective coating (sealant, stain, or paint) to prevent water damage and rot. Reapply protective coatings as needed, at least annually.

Difficulty assembling the planter

Review the assembly instructions carefully. Ensure you are using the correct parts and hardware for each step. Contact customer support if specific parts are missing or damaged.

Poor drainage leading to plant root rot

Ensure the planter has adequate drainage holes at the bottom. If drainage holes are insufficient, consider drilling additional holes or placing the planter on a slightly elevated surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Assembly: These garden planters require assembly. Ensure you have the necessary tools and follow the provided instructions carefully to put each planter together securely.

Compatibility: Suitable for use with a wide range of soil types and plants, including flowers, vegetables, and herbs. The untreated nature of the wood makes it compatible with most paints, stains, and sealants for customization.

Care:

  • Protection: As the wood is untreated, it is highly recommended to protect it from moisture and UV exposure. Apply a suitable wood sealant, stain, or paint before or shortly after assembly.
  • Maintenance: Regularly inspect the planters for any signs of wear, rot, or insect damage. Reapply protective coatings as needed, typically once or twice a year depending on climate.
  • Drainage: Ensure adequate drainage by placing the planters on a permeable surface or by ensuring the drainage holes (if any are pre-drilled or created during assembly) are clear.
  • Waterproofing: For extended lifespan, consider using a waterproof liner inside the planter to create a barrier between the soil and the wood.
  • Storage: During harsh winter months or prolonged periods of wet weather, consider covering the planters with a waterproof tarp or storing them in a dry, sheltered location.
