Oh, why I ask you, do they make so many beautiful, decorative pots, specifically smaller succulent pots, that have no drainage?!? As a new plant owner, I didn't know better, and now, I have several super-cute pots around with succulents that have great succulent soil, but no drainage hols in the pots ... do I need to repot and get rid of them? ![3개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/XAgYVCVDHn7nPhOWGUtKcuwCr03fdgP_r9DYwh7VP0M/n0eA28GcREeXfL-3upkCVQ.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/XAgYVCVDHn7nPhOWGUtKcuwCr03fdgP_r9DYwh7VP0M/oxYc_ETyTUWHA43Vw3tvxQ.webp?size=large) ![3개 중 3번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/XAgYVCVDHn7nPhOWGUtKcuwCr03fdgP_r9DYwh7VP0M/CJWcaVscQSqHLgBj01XTxw.webp?size=large) ## 14개의 댓글 ### eatyacarbs님이 2024-12-12에 댓글을 남겼어요. plants with krystal on YT has a video about how to drill holes in ANY type of pot. you can also use them as cover pots instead if you don’t want to break out the drill #### Sonja님이 2024-12-12에 답변했습니다. Well, heck! That's easy-peesy!! I can do that!! Thanks for the tip! Why didn't I think of that! Thanks so much! #### Jillian Champ님이 2024-12-13에 답변했습니다.

When I get them home I have my husband drill a bunch of holes right in those beauties! ### Phil님이 2024-12-12에 댓글을 남겼어요. Hold on. You may need special drill bits that your husband may not have. But easy to get from Amazon. I’ve been drilling holes in pots and non-pots for quite a while. He will need a diamond drill bits for ceramics. Sounds expensive but a set is about $15 from Amazon. Originally I tried bits for brick and concrete, but didn’t work. There is a simple technique to learn also. And wear eye protection. Pieces often fly. Some materials are still difficult to drill thru, especially stoneware. Drilling holes opens up a whole new world of possibilities. I get many “pots” from Goodwill. Some beautiful decorative planters people probably gave up on because of no drainage as well as decorative baking dishes. I only use items that won’t look like their original intended use. The photo are a few pieces I have turned into planters. ![1개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OWAkyZxcZtwxk-v_HG7sG7i-GaZeWOFpvbl_VkIbhkY/QQih_QZET3WQQLncPFNP5A.webp?size=large) #### Sonja님이 2024-12-12에 답변했습니다. Thanks for the tip, so does Jim! ### Phil님이 2024-12-12에 댓글을 남겼어요. I think these were originally both baking dishes. I have done so many that I forget. My favorite display pots are the simple terracotta from D’vinci at Amazon ![2개 중 1번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OWAkyZxcZtwxk-v_HG7sG7i-GaZeWOFpvbl_VkIbhkY/qlttCD1cTNWiGSm1LoS3fw.webp?size=large) ![2개 중 2번째 첨부 파일](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/OWAkyZxcZtwxk-v_HG7sG7i-GaZeWOFpvbl_VkIbhkY/_7LPDTATQV6Rb-3KcToHlA.webp?size=large) ### Me님이 2024-12-12에 댓글을 남겼어요. I know it’s been said but I bought bits to drill drainage holes in my ceramic pots, they work like a dream and were cheap. Search 6 PCs Diamond Drill Bits Set on Amazon, $13.99 ### Amber님이 2024-12-12에 댓글을 남겼어요. Just always use a nursery pot. #### Phil님이 2024-12-12에 답변했습니다. Often times it is difficult to find an appropriately sized nursery pot. I have a few that are double potted. But especially difficult for shallow succulent planters. ### Sonja님이 2024-12-13에 댓글을 남겼어요. I am so excited!! This is a game changer!! EVERYTHING JUST BECAME A POT!!! #### Sonja님이 2024-12-13에 답변했습니다. (I'm not so sure my husband is going to share my enthusiasm 😆) #### StormLover님이 2024-12-16에 답변했습니다. 🤣 --- _Planta 커뮤니티 (https://getplanta.com). 누구나 읽을 수 있습니다. 게시물을 올리고, 댓글을 달고, 좋아요를 누르려면 Planta 앱을 다운로드하세요: https://getplanta.com/download_
