How to care for a glossy white pot with a slanted side
Watering the Glossy White Pot with Slanted Side
Good drainage is essential in your Glossy White pot with a slanted edge. Ideally, pour water until you see a slight runoff at the bottom of the pot to prevent root rot. Use a watering can like the elho 1.5L watering can for controlled watering. After each watering, check that excess water can escape through the drainage holes.
Light for the Glossy white pot with slanted side
Place your Glossy White pot with a slanted edge in bright, indirect sunlight for optimal results. Direct sunlight combined with the glossy pot can cause light reflections, which can damage the plant's leaves. A spot near an east- or west-facing window is ideal. This way, your plant will receive sufficient light without the pot overheating and the substrate drying out.
Common problems with the Glossy white pot with a slanted side
Yellow leaves
Yellow leaves often indicate overwatering or overly wet potting soil. Remove the pot from its stand and let it dry in a slightly sheltered spot. Reduce watering and, if necessary, use sticky traps to control fungus gnats . Check after a few days to see if the new leaves remain a healthy green.
Plant is dripping
If your plant continues to leak water, the potting soil may be saturated. Check whether the water depth in the Glossy White pot with a slanted side requires a drainage layer with hydro grains. Consider adding a layer of Leca balls at the bottom to better regulate moisture. This prevents the pot from remaining wet for extended periods and causing root rot.
Pests
Spider mites and mealybugs like to settle on damp pot rims. Clean your shiny pot with a soft cloth or use our microfiber dusting glove to remove dust and pests. A mild spray of water or an organic pesticide will keep unwanted creatures at bay. Regularly inspect the undersides of leaves for early detection.
Roots emerge from the bottom
When roots become visible at the drainage holes, it's time to repot. Move your plant to a slightly larger pot, for example, the Basic White Gloss Slanted Pot for extra growing space. Use fresh potting soil and a lighter vermiculite mix to keep the new potting soil aerated. This will give your plant room to grow healthily again.
Brown edges on the leaf margins
Brown edges can be caused by air that's too dry or insufficient water in the topsoil. Increase the humidity by using a plant mister and lightly mist the surrounding area. Give a little more water, but avoid soggy soil. This will prevent leaf edge burn and give your plant a fresh new look.
