PSA: I almost lost my balcony peppers to a dumb error

My containers didn't drain right and the roots started to rot. Double check your pots have enough holes, it's an easy fix.

Old blog post I read said to add way more holes than you think. Like double the factory amount. Fixed my herb pots last year.

Seriously? That seems like overkill. My pots from the store drain fine as they are. How wet was your dirt to need that many holes?

Drill a few more holes just in case.
