Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Hortus Porto Pot, determine whether your plant requires drainage. Because the pot features a solid base, you may want to place a layer of leca (lightweight expanded clay aggregate) at the bottom to act as a drainage reservoir if you intend to plant directly into the vessel.
Compatibility: This pot is compatible with standard 12cm or 13cm nursery pots.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust or debris.
- Avoid using abrasive sponges that could scratch the smooth finish.
- If using outdoors, ensure the pot is placed on a stable, flat surface to prevent tipping in high winds.
