Thank you.
Any tips you can give on how you maintain your area
Putting those bits in at the bottom can also stop drainage, so be cause of how much you’re putting in
Good point
Thank you❤ x

I always wonder if I should take out the flower from these little pots they sell them in. My mom says they need a pot with holes so the water can evaporate. Is this truth? Do I always need a pot with holes ? I see your not having any wholes in the big brown pot
There are holes in the big pot
Whats the name of the stuff u put on the bottom of the pot to help water drain ?
Any cracked terracota pots/ pebbles
I like her
Your growing in ONLY compost? I think talking more about flower type and soil type would help much better
Leave her alone

Don't be so fragile.
@@LoveandMisses it’s a plant video. Don’t be a cunt
Hi, Rocks or other chunks of debris in the bottom of containers do not contribute to better draining soils and healthier plants. Instead plant roots encounter saturated soils that don't drain efficiently. It all has to do with something called a perched water table
Yes, aggregate does help drainage. It is used in commercial drainage systems and under pavers all the time.
its just waste of space. the perched water table exists with or without gravel. the plant uses this oversaturated soil zone when the top 2/3rd of the soil dries up, basically like a water reserve and the roots will bring that moisture upwards and stay hydrated. that's why you shouldn't water the plant every time the top of the soil dries. lifting the pot when the soil is dry is a good indicator on when you should be watering it. if it is lighter than usual it need water
Would recommend using gloves as well as breaking the roots of the potted plant before actual planting 👍
Thank you for the explanation, you have some great points, but I'd like to put out some advice.
Do NOT mix sharp objects (like shards of terracotta or glass) into your soil.
A garden pot of that size will dry out daily in 90F weather if in a place of full sun, so I would not recommend a pot with holes. Rather, a holding well of standing water at the bottom will be absorbed upwards through the organic soil medium throughout the day. Organic soil structure can be damaged by over-drying and over-saturation of water can aid with that. A reduction of watering should be made in cooler seasons or after a rain event to prevent long-term pooling. The holes at the bottom will allow leakage of nutrients onto the ground, which is not only a loss for the health of your plants, but can build up on surfaces spilled onto. It also allows mold to grow easier and ants tend to enjoy the access in.
Un-compacted soil will have greater porosity and allow for greater hold of water than rocks at the bottom of a pot. The roots of those plants should not be going deeper than 1' unless seeking water, so root rot caused by standing water should not be an issue.
Also, consider putting a few handfuls of mulch around the top to aid in balancing moisture levels, which will create less stress on the plant.
