The fabric pot I use doesn't seem to drain well it also says online to make holes for drainage https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08R5R96PS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_glt_fabc_JD8Z9B62J5Z363JJBFX4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

Where does it say to make holes for drainage? I've used fabric pots for years and have never made drainage holes. The whole point of fabric pots is that they breathe. If anything they'll dry out faster than other hard material pots. If you overwater a plant in any pot you could run into issues. Don't overwater. If you have small plants they don't need to be watered everyday. I have fabric pots made out of that same material and never got root rot.

It doesn't In this this is just the bags i use ... But I I have read online of people cutting drainage holes
When you water does runoff come out at all, or does it hold all of it?

You’re watering too much and probably too often. I’ve used bags exclusively for about 6 years. Multiple brands and materials.

My bad there I'd run off just holds some in the bottom but not alot. With soil though I think I decided it needed more drainage and read others online cutting holes

Something is not right if it’s not using most of that.

Yea think I fucked up
If there is some runoff, but you don't like the buildup at the bottom try a pot riser?

hey man, yeah you shouldn't need to make holes in your fabric pots. What are your humidity and temperature conditions? And also your medium? How did you prepare it?

well looks alright, and if you added enough perlite then air is going through the pots. Do your plants look ok? Are they droopy?
