Planter Care Guide
Tips to keep your fiber planters strong and beautiful for years.
Placement & Handling
- Place on flat, stable surfaces to avoid cracks.
- Use pot stands/risers for airflow and drainage.
- Lift instead of dragging to prevent scratches.
- Keep outdoor pots slightly shaded to reduce UV impact.
Planting & Soil
- Use a well-draining mix (soil + compost + sand/perlite).
- Add pebbles/clay balls at the bottom for drainage.
- Leave 1–2 inches space at the top.
- Avoid large trees with invasive roots.
Watering
- Keep drainage holes open at all times.
- Water moderately — fiber pots are non-porous.
- Use trays indoors to protect floors.
- Drain excess water after heavy rains.
Cleaning & Care
- Wipe with a damp cloth weekly.
- For stains, use mild soap water (no harsh chemicals).
- Remove moss/algae with gentle brushing.
- Apply fiber-safe polish occasionally for shine.
Weather Protection
- Summer (35°C+): Move to shade, use liners, water plants more often.
- Monsoon: Raise pots on stands, ensure holes are clear.
- Winter (<10°C): Avoid frost exposure, reduce watering.
- Normal climate (20–30°C): Regular care is enough.
Indoor Care
- Rotate pots for even growth and fading prevention.
- Keep away from heaters or radiators.
- Use trays/mats to avoid stains or scratches.
Repotting & Long-Term Use
- Repot every 12–18 months with fresh soil.
- Clean pots before reuse.
- Seal minor cracks with waterproof epoxy.
- Store unused pots indoors or under shade.
