There’s no overflow hole so I’m going to drill one before I fill the bed with soil.
I was thinking along those lines too, it’s definitely not watertight. Maybe I’ll leave it that way and try it out first, I can add a bunch of perlite to the soil I put in there, especially toward the bottom.As I look at your pictures, you might not need to drill an overflow hole into it. I suspect that the water would overflow the top of the pan and drain out the bottom OK. The walls of the container are bolted together and don't look watertight. Other than the pan in the bottom, I don't think that container was built to be watertight.
I might suggest you just overflow that pan with water and see how fast it drains out. In my planters, the bottom 8 inches were watertight, so I needed to drill in an overflow hole at 3 inches for the 4 inch drainpipe I used in my planter. If not, I would have drown out my plants.

Just leave them in a dry place, if you can put them on a net that’ll be best, but if you can’t, just rotate them every few days. It will take about a month for them to dry enough for you to clean them. They’re supposed to make a children toy’s noice when they’re readyThanks!! I cut 2 off & then left some others on just to experiment. How should I dry them inside? In the dark? Should I rotate them every day?
Awesome, thank you for the tips!Just leave them in a dry place, if you can put them on a net that’ll be best, but if you can’t, just rotate them every few days.
