i take wooden chopsticks and stick 3-4 in the middle of each pot. you could use twigs too, i just had a drawer full of those sticks.
oh, i’m sorry to hear that! i won’t be too upset if i lose the marigolds. these birdies are just about ready to fly the coop. i don’t know how they all fit in there, as big as they! thanks for stopping by, and good luck with any future nests!
