How to waterproof a pine wood outdoor flower pot using eco-friendly products?

Pine wood outdoor flower pots add a natural charm to gardens but require protection from moisture to prevent rot. Here’s how to waterproof them using eco-friendly products:

1. Choose the Right Sealant: Opt for plant-based oils like linseed or tung oil, or beeswax-based wood sealants. These are non-toxic and biodegradable.

2. Prepare the Pot: Sand the surface lightly to remove rough spots and ensure even absorption. Clean off dust with a damp cloth.

3. Apply the Sealant: Use a brush to coat the pot evenly, including the interior and base. Let the first layer dry completely before adding a second coat for extra protection.

4. Reapply as Needed: Eco-friendly sealants may wear faster than synthetic ones, so reapply every 6–12 months, depending on weather exposure.

By following these steps, your pine wood flower pot will stay durable and eco-friendly for years!
