Troubleshooting
Planter feels unstable
Ensure all locking mechanisms are fully engaged. Utilize the four wheels with brakes for added stability, especially on uneven surfaces. Do not exceed the weight capacity.
Self-watering system not working effectively
Check if the reservoir is filled correctly and if the wicking material (if applicable, not explicitly detailed) is properly seated. Ensure drainage holes are not blocked, as this can affect water flow.
Water pooling or not draining
Confirm that the drainage holes are clear of soil or debris. Use the provided plugs to control drainage if needed, but ensure proper drainage is maintained to prevent root rot.
Wheels are difficult to lock or unlock
Inspect the wheel mechanisms for any obstructions. Ensure the planter is on a level surface when attempting to lock the brakes.
