About a month ago I tried an experiment I found a metal pot that I thought would be perfect for my idea. I took 3 Amaryllis bulb and planted them in this container. I was so happy that the dirt I got with all three was just the right amount I needed for the pot. The first plant was planted probably 3 weeks before I planted the other two. So the one in the middle is already tall the other two are coming up and growing quickly. I have two questions. I have had them under flourescent lights till now. I want to put them on my table now. Only light would be coming from my sliding glass doors which is quiet bright during the day. But it will be about 6 ft away from door. So far the plants look like they are doing good. But I have read tonight that it says it is important that there be holes in the bottom of pot. Mine does not have holes. I have been very careful not to overwater since I know I didn't put holes in bottom. Should I leave things alone or should I try to put holes in the bottom of pot. I don't have anything that would fit right under this pot though.
It looks so nice now. Me and my grandkids decorated the pot and I don't want to hurt my plants. So anyone know more than me here. It seems that there is not a lot of feedback here lately. I sure would like to talk to people who enjoy plants like I do.
