I have this beautiful pot I got recently travelling. It has ZERO drainage and I’d love to pot numerous succulents into it. What do you recommend I do for drainage so they can thrive?

    You can use a smaller pot inside of it or drill holes in the bottom. Google how to do it without cracking the pot!

    I would recommend planting the succulents in a slightly smaller pot that has holes for drainage. Then you can have that pot sit inside of your pot that doesn’t have any drainage to allow water to drain into it. It would look like the plants are in the beautiful gnome pot while allowing drainage for your plant babies! Hope I helped!🌱❤️

      I would be careful potting multiple succs though as they all generally need slightly different conditions. I’d suggest sticking to a group like, a few different types of stonecrops for example, that all require the same conditions

    Drilling a hole. Place masking tape on spot to bd drilled to keep drill bit from sliding around.

    you can also put rocks in the bottom of the pot, beneath the dirt (I use lava rocks, because preferably you should use smaller rocks with a bit of airage or holes in them) and this will act as a drainage.
