Care Tips for Pots and Fountains
Pots:
- Proper Drainage: Ensure your pots have adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Consider adding a layer of gravel or potting shards at the bottom of the pot to improve drainage.
- Soil Choice: Use high-quality potting soil specifically designed for container plants. Regular garden soil may compact in pots, making it harder for roots to grow.
- Watering: Potted plants may need more frequent watering than those planted in the ground, especially in hot weather. Be sure to check the moisture levels regularly and adjust watering based on the plant’s needs.
- Fertilizing: Container plants often need additional nutrients. Use a slow-release fertilizer or liquid feed to ensure healthy growth throughout the growing season.
- Protecting Terra Cotta in Winter: Terra cotta pots are porous and can crack in freezing temperatures. If you experience frost, consider moving terra cotta pots indoors or covering them with frost cloth to protect them from the elements.
Fountains:
- Regular Cleaning: Fountains should be cleaned regularly to prevent algae buildup and ensure water flows smoothly. Empty the fountain and scrub any surfaces with mild soap and a soft brush before refilling with fresh water.
- Water Levels: Keep your fountain topped off with water, especially during hot weather, to avoid damaging the pump. Running a fountain with low water levels can cause the pump to burn out.
- Winter Protection: If temperatures drop below freezing, protect your fountain by draining it and covering it with a protective cover to prevent cracks or damage from expanding ice.
- Pump Maintenance: Regularly check the fountain pump to ensure it’s clear of debris, such as leaves or twigs, that could impede water flow. Clean the pump as needed to maintain efficiency.
