Seasonal Maintenance
Caring for your plants throughout the year means adapting your routine to match the changing seasons. This not only keeps your plants healthy but also ensures they thrive in their Ecopots no matter the conditions.
Take seasons into account:
-
Spring/Summer: Water frequently and fertilize every 4–6 weeks to support active growth.
-
Autumn: Prune back dead or excess growth and reduce watering as temperatures drop.
-
Winter: Add mulch (e.g., straw or bark) around the base of your plants to insulate roots. Move frost-sensitive plants to sheltered areas for protection.
Cleaning your Ecopots
Over time, exposure to storms, changing seasons, and daily use can cause your Ecopots to accumulate dirt, watermarks, or even light scratches. Regular care will help maintain their original look and ensure they last for years to come.
Here’s how to keep them in great shape:
-
Start by wiping the surface with a damp cloth to remove dirt and stains.
-
For more stubborn marks or light scratches, our Ecopots Cleaning and Repair Kit can help. It includes a cleaning spray for stains and a special sanding pad for light scratches.
Finish with a quick rinse of clean water, and your Ecopots will be refreshed and ready to face the elements again!
Repairing scratches or heavy stains
To maintain the unique look and feel of your Ecopots, it’s essential to use the Ecopots Repair Sponge. This sponge is specifically designed to work with the material of Ecopots, ensuring effective care without causing additional damage. Other sponges might alter the surface texture or finish, so we strongly recommend using this one.
How to use:
-
Wet the sponge lightly and gently scrub the affected area to remove scratches or tough stains.
-
Buff the surface with a dry cloth to restore its original finish.
Remember, proper care not only keeps your Ecopots looking great but also helps protect their longevity. Plus, they’re covered by a 10-year warranty for extra peace of mind. Learn more here.
