Troubleshooting

Pot feels unstable after drilling holes

Ensure holes are drilled cleanly and not excessively large. If the base is uneven, consider adding a slightly larger drainage saucer to stabilize it.

Color fading or degradation over time

While designed to be UV resistant, extreme prolonged direct sunlight may eventually impact color. Rotating the pot occasionally can help ensure even exposure.

Water pooling on the surface (indoor use)

Ensure adequate drainage holes have been added and that the pot is not sitting in excess water. Use a saucer to catch any drips.
