Frequently Asked Questions about Crescent Garden Dot TruDrop Planter:

What are the dots? Is it braille? What does it say?

The blue raindrops on the planter are water level indicators. Each drop represents 1/3 of the reservoir being full. As you fill the reservoir with water, blue dots appear in the window. Three blue dots indicate that the reservoir is full. However, some users have reported issues with the dots not functioning properly, resulting in dry plants.

Can the planter be left outside in northern subzero temperatures filled with water?

No, it is recommended to empty the water cavity for the TruDrop planters during winter use. After draining the pot and emptying the water cavity, you can leave the pot filled with soil and plants outdoors. The durable material and double wall design will protect the planter from moisture damage.

What happens if rain fills up the planter? Does the excess water drain out?

Yes, the planter is designed with a hidden drainflow tube. This tube drains out any excess liquid or moisture, whether it's from rain or sprinklers. You can find visual demonstrations of this self-watering feature on the product page.

Can the dot system be repaired? Only 1 of my dots worked.

If you experience issues with the dot system, it is recommended to contact Crescent Garden's customer service for assistance. Some users have reported their dots getting stuck, and lightly tapping the side of the planter helped free them.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the dots? is it braille? what does it say?

The blue rain drops are water level indicators. Each represents 1/3 of the reservoir being full so as you fill the reservoir up with water a blue dot will appear in the window until all 3 dots show which indicates the reservoir is full. I returned mine because I must have had a faulty pot and my plants were dry and I had to water anyway and my plants were dry and one died. Perhaps it would work if you had plants with very large and deep roots but I did not. I've tried another reservoir pot years ago with the same issues but perhaps they will work for you. Good luck. I was so hoping it would work for me.

Can the planter be left outside in northern subzero temperatures filled with water?

For winter use, you need to empty the water cavity for the TruDrop planters. After draining the pot completely and emptying the water cavity, you can leave the pot filled with soil and your plants outdoors during the winter. The durable material and double wall feature will ensure the moisture in your soil from snow and rain will not damage the planter.

What happens if rain fills up the planter? Does that excess water have a way to drain out?

Yes it does! The planter's patented design contains a hidden drainflow tube which will drain out any excess liquid/moisture (whether its from rain or sprinklers). Please see the video or photos on the product page to see the inside of this pot. It will give you a visual understanding of how this self-watering feature works!

Can the dot system be repaired? Only 1 of my dots worked.

Customer service at crescent garden has always been helpful for me. One question- sometimes my teardrops get stuck. I have to hit the side of the planter a few times to get them unstuck.
