Troubleshooting
Planter seems unstable
Ensure the planter is placed on a perfectly level and firm surface. Check that all panels are securely interlocked.
Water pooling in the planter
Confirm the soil is not compacted. The open base should allow for drainage, but overly dense soil can still impede water flow. Ensure no debris is blocking the base.
Plastic panels appear discolored
This can occur with prolonged UV exposure. Clean with a mild detergent. While the material is durable, some fading is normal over time. Consider placement in partial shade if discoloration is a major concern.
