Troubleshooting
Planter cracking or becoming brittle
While designed for durability, extreme temperature fluctuations or prolonged, intense UV exposure could impact the plastic over many years. Consider bringing planters indoors during harsh winters or if placed in constant direct, harsh sunlight for extended periods.
Water pooling despite drainage holes
Ensure the drainage holes are not blocked by soil or debris. If necessary, gently clear them with a small tool. Consider elevating the planter slightly with small risers or pot feet to improve airflow and drainage, especially on flat surfaces.
Design fading or dulling
Clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Fading is more likely with prolonged, direct sun exposure. While the Athens design is integral, surface dirt can be removed to refresh the appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These planters require no assembly. They are ready to be filled with soil and plants immediately upon unboxing. Ensure the pierce drainage holes at the bottom are clear before adding soil.
Compatibility: Compatible with a wide range of potting soils and plant types. The 40cm length is designed to fit standard window sills and ledges. For outdoor use, ensure placement is secure, especially in windy conditions.
Care: Clean the planters with a damp cloth and mild soap as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the plastic surface. For prolonged outdoor use, occasional rotation may help ensure even exposure to sunlight and weather.
