Proper drainage is crucial for the health of your plants
Inadequate drainage can lead to root rot and other issues
Drainage holes allow excess water to escape
Without drainage holes, water can accumulate and drown the roots
Root rot occurs when roots are constantly saturated
To prevent root rot, ensure your planters have adequate drainage
Use a drill to create drainage holes if necessary
Place a layer of gravel or pebbles at the bottom of the planter to improve drainage
Choose planters with drainage holes already built in
Regularly check the drainage holes to ensure they are not clogged
Healthy roots need oxygen as well as water
Proper drainage helps to maintain a well-balanced environment for your plants
Remember, a happy plant starts with good drainage!
