Unless the pot is a self water design like mine and you do not. Did a wick come included with the pot?

Umm yes it did but I ain’t gonna lie I threw that thing out lol 😂 I didn’t know what it was I should’ve looked it up

Yes, but it’s still higher than the bottom so water will still be retained in the bottom circle part.

Do I drill holes?

If you pull the middle piece out it should still allow the water to come out.

This looks like one of those self watering pots. I have one that came with a plant I bought at Lowe’s. It should have come with a inner pot and wick like in the photo.
