Troubleshooting

Planter is wobbly after assembly

Ensure all interlocking parts are fully secured and that the planter is placed on a level surface. Double-check assembly steps.

Plants are not growing well

Verify that the planter has adequate drainage. Consider adding a layer of gravel at the bottom or drilling small drainage holes. Ensure you are using good quality soil and appropriate watering/feeding for your plants.

Material appears faded or brittle over time

While polypropylene is UV resistant, prolonged extreme sun exposure can eventually degrade the material. Consider placing it in a location with partial shade or covering it during peak summer months for extended longevity.
