FAQs
Are wood planters good for plants?
Wooden pots are crafted from natural materials, posing no risk to plant health. However, they do require extra care to prevent rot! This means applying a protective polyurethane, wood varnish, or lacquer coat to shield the wood from moisture and weathering while enhancing its aesthetic appeal.
Should I line a wooden planter?
Yes, wooden planters should have liners to protect them from rotting. This helps reduce the risk of the planter getting soggy and rotting inside. However, remember the soil will need proper drainage, so remember to poke holes in the liner to help with this.
How do you keep wooden planters from rotting?
The inner liners are the answer to keeping precious wood surfaces safe from water and fungi. Consider giving the surfaces a chemical-free wood treatment to protect them from the effects of exposure to wind and water. For an added boost of protection, consider coating them with beeswax or linseed oil to keep them looking fresh and fabulous.
What is the best wood for garden planters?
If you want something that will stand the test of time, go for wood types that don’t decay quickly. These include hemlock, cedar, redwood, Douglas fir, juniper, pine, and cypress. They’ll keep your plants healthy and thriving for years!
What do you put in the bottom of a wooden planter?
You can use broken plant pot pieces or twigs as the foundation. These create a safety net that reduces the chances of the compost falling off and blocking the drainage holes. The secret at the bottom is maintaining the planter’s drainage.
How long do wood planters last?
With a bit of love and care, wood planters can last as long as 10 to 20 years. Keep them in top shape by regularly cleaning and oiling them to fend off pesky algae. If you're worried about water damage, consider investing in self-watering containers to keep leaks at bay. And remember, don't wait too long to address any signs of wear and tear.
