How do the planters drain?

There is a drain hole in the bottom center of each of the plastic planter boxes. There is a removable cap included where you can either use the "holed" end to allow for drainage or the "solid" end to prevent water from draining out.

Put a chop stick or tooth pick in the soil. leave for at least a half an hour. Pull it out and touch the part that was in the dirt. If it cool and moist, no water. otherwise, water till water comes out the drain hole in the bottom.

Not drainage holes but slats. I had to put some plastic in the bottom to keep the soil from washing through. I love these planter and have received so many compliments on them.

It's funny, my wife and I were on the fence about getting this because we also couldn't find that info! Anyway, there is an outlet valve to which you can hook up another garden hose. Then the hose can drain wherever you like. We have it leading into a large bucket/pail which we periodically empty. Hope that helps!

There is nothing on the bottom. It is dirt or whatever you're installing the planter on. The planter has sides only.

There isn't a tank. You fill the bowl manually with the foot pedal, and a harder push with the foot pedal opens the drain to flush

All the Ella square planters have a watertight plug. It can be removed for drainage - or left in to hold water.

this pot has an interior well into which water drains from the plant section(above the line shown opposite).

Put in a layer of coarse gravel on the bottom so soil won't plug drain holes and water can move from soil through the gravel to drain holes. Tom

Yes, there is one drain hole not quite centered in the bottom of the planter. The plug is packed in a plastic bag inside one of the legs. You need to screw it in from the underside of the bottom of the planter to plug the drainage hole.

There are 3 additional holes on the bottom to help with drainage. Mine doesn't have a water issue but is somewhat protected in my garden.

I just drilled several holes along the bottom for drainage. These planters are high quality and look beautiful...

Good way to do it is to drain most of the water, and leave a little at the bottom for the cut flower stems. This way they look great and plants also stay hydrated.

No there are no drain wholes, but if you put a little rock/foam peanuts in nylon in bottom will help.

They are in the outer, most narrow portion of planter. There are removable (4) plugs though so you can decide inner or outer side of deck

The drain attaches to a fixture at the side of the unit. From there you can attach an old garden hose and drain any where.

You connect the half inch line to the seperater after the water pump then connect the quarter inch lines to the seperator & put them where you water to be delivered to the plants . Its really simple . Let me know if you need advice . Good luck my friend & grow them BIG !
