Answer This Question

A:  One I was able to do by hand. The other two I used plyers and a screw driver so I could drain the extra rain water. I grow greens and strawberries in mine. Excellent raised beds.

    A:  There's a white plug on the bottom, unscrew this white plug using a tool and take the white plastic piece out and then insert your hose, if you like.

                A:  I am not sure what size spigot you would need. I kept the bottom drain plug so I can drain it for the winter. I just installed a drain pipe for overflow for a wicking bed. See it on Youtube. Wonderus Water-Saving Wicking Gardens.

                        A:  I was able to peel it off when I purchased 4 of them, its just a heavy duty sticker. Leaves a little gunk, but not too bad.

                          A:  It was a nightmare trying to remove the manufacturer’s label. Once I got the sticker off, the glue/goo left behind is impossible to remove. I’ve tried for weeks with the best chemicals I can find. Very frustrating!! And you can’t turn it around because there is a seam in the back.
