Troubleshooting
Pot appears to be leaking
Ensure the pot is placed on a saucer or tray if used indoors to catch excess water. Check that the base is not cracked; if so, discontinue use.
Surface appears dull or dirty
Gently wipe the pot with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a rinse and wipe dry.
Plant roots seem cramped
The 16cm size is best for smaller plants. If your plant has outgrown the pot, it is time to repot it into a larger container.
