Plant Pot Care

Here are some tips for caring for your indoor Jesmonite plant pots:

  1. Watering: Make sure to water your plants properly, taking into account the specific needs of the plant species and the size of the pot. Over-watering or under-watering can cause damage to the plant and the pot, so it's important to find the right balance.

  2. Light: Place your Jesmonite plant pot in an area that receives the right amount of light for the specific plant species. Most indoor plants prefer bright, indirect light, so avoid placing them in direct sunlight.

  3. Humidity: Some indoor plants thrive in high humidity, while others prefer drier conditions. Make sure to research the specific needs of your plant and adjust the humidity level accordingly.

  4. Cleaning: To keep your Jesmonite plant pot looking its best, wipe it down regularly with a damp cloth. If the surface becomes scratched or stained, you can gently sand it down and reapply a coat of sealant, if desired.

  5. Repotting: When your plant outgrows its pot, it's time to repot it into a larger container. Make sure to choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one, and use fresh potting soil to ensure the plant has enough room to grow.

By following these simple care tips, you can help your indoor Jesmonite plant pots and the plants they contain thrive and flourish.

Watering

It's important to avoid letting water sit in the bottom of a Jesmonite plant pot as it can cause damage to the material. When water sits in the bottom of the pot, it can seep into the Jesmonite and cause it to expand, which can weaken the structure of the pot and make it more susceptible to cracking or breaking.

To prevent this from happening, it's important to allow the pot to fully drain after watering, either by tilting it to one side or by lifting it up and allowing the water to escape from the bottom. This will help prevent water from accumulating in the bottom of the pot and causing damage to the Jesmonite.

It's also important to be mindful of the type of plants you are putting in the Jesmonite pot. Some plants require more frequent watering than others, and it's important to take this into account when choosing the right pot for your plants. By taking these simple steps, you can help protect your Jesmonite plant pot and ensure that it remains in good condition for years to come.

Candle Holder Care

Here are some tips for caring for your Jesmonite candle holder:

  1. Cleaning: To keep your Jesmonite candle holder looking its best, wipe it down regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning products, as these can damage the surface of the holder.

  2. Heat protection: When using the candle holder, make sure to place it on a heat-resistant surface, such as a trivet or a plate, to protect the Jesmonite from heat damage.

  3. Wax residue: After burning a candle, there may be wax residue left on the holder. To remove this, simply wait until the wax has hardened and then use a dull knife or spatula to gently scrape it off. If there is any stubborn residue, you can use a cloth dampened with warm soapy water to remove it.

  4. Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight: Jesmonite is resistant to UV light, but prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause the material to fade over time. To help protect your candle holder, place it in an area that does not receive direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

By following these simple care tips, you can help your Jesmonite candle holder maintain its beauty and functionality for many years to come.
