FAQs
Does this pot have drainage holes?
No, the Sandglaze Pot - 16.5cm does not come with pre-drilled drainage holes.
How should I water plants in this pot?
Water sparingly and only when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch. It's advisable to use a well-draining soil mix and consider adding a drainage layer or an inner pot with drainage.
What types of plants are best suited for this pot?
Plants that prefer to dry out between waterings, such as succulents, cacti, or ZZ plants, are good choices. It can also be used for plants that require precise watering control.
Can I use this pot outdoors?
This pot is designed for indoor use only. Exposure to outdoor elements may damage the glazed finish and the ceramic material.
How do I clean the glazed surface?
Wipe the pot with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a mild soap solution and rinse carefully. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
What are the dimensions of this pot?
The Sandglaze Pot - 16.5cm has a diameter of approximately 16.5cm.
Is the glaze durable?
The lustrous glazed finish is designed to be durable for indoor use, but it can be scratched by abrasive materials or sharp objects.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling at the bottom of the pot
Reduce watering frequency. Ensure you are using a well-draining soil mix and consider adding a layer of gravel or horticultural charcoal at the base.
White residue on the exterior surface
This is likely mineral deposits from water. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Ensure the pot is thoroughly dried after cleaning.
Plants appearing unhealthy or roots showing signs of rot
This indicates overwatering due to the lack of drainage. Allow the soil to dry out completely before watering again. Repotting with fresh, well-draining soil or using an inner pot with drainage is recommended.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This pot is ready to use straight out of the box. If you intend to plant directly into it, ensure you have appropriate potting mix for your chosen plant. Due to the lack of drainage holes, consider adding a layer of pebbles or horticultural charcoal at the base for improved drainage and aeration, or use a plastic liner with drainage holes inside the pot.
Compatibility: The Sandglaze Pot - 16.5cm is compatible with most indoor plants. It is particularly well-suited for plants that prefer slightly drier conditions or for those who are experienced in managing watering for non-draining pots. It is designed for indoor environments only.
Care: To maintain its lustrous finish, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the glaze. If water stains appear, a mild detergent mixed with water can be used, followed by a thorough rinse and drying.
