Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your Athens Planter, identify the indentation points on the base. Use a standard power drill or a hand drill with a suitable bit size to open the drainage markers. If you intend to use the planter as a reservoir system, ensure you drill only the designated overflow markers. For ongoing care, simply wipe the exterior with a damp cloth to remove dirt or debris. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, as these may affect the finish of the recycled plastic. During extreme winter conditions, bringing planters into a shed or garage can further extend the life of the material.
