Hi everyone,

I have two HUGE ceramic pots that I want to turn into water gardens but I don't know how to plug the drainage holes in the bottom. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

TIA.

There are several ways to do it. The two easiest ways are to use plumbers putty or a small dollop of Great Stuff. To avoid problems with the Great Stuff, after I place it on the underside of the pot, I put a piece of wax paper or aluminum foil down and set the pot, right side up on it so the bottom stays flat.Then I let it set for two or three hours.
