Just pressing the pot wouldn't work unless it was weighted and then you'd have to support the fingers in some way to get them to stay up around the pot. Easier to just let gravity work for you. outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6598416695566325151.post-23818919214838486332017-07-06T11:53:54.602-07:002017-07-06T11:53:54.602-07:00Well done!
