DIY drainage question???

[dtown]

I have the XL DIY screen cage and love it!! Although I want to somehow get a drainage system going. Does anyone have any clever ideas on how to implement a drain.

well first things first, where do you have it set up and what is your space situation?

I really just want to know how to get the corners of the floor to angle into the middle and drain.

I am not personally familiar with DIY cages, but they look very similar to my cages in pictures. I drill about 3 holes in the center of my cages and then use a plant to weigh down the center. Depending on the surface you have your cage on, the plant in the middle can be enough.

Put your plants in the cage as they will be set up, pour in some water and see where it tends to pool up at. Then drill some small drainage holes in the area the water is going to end up and place a container under the cage to catch all the water. With the weight of the plants the cage bottom will naturally curve and give you a location the water will head to. Hope this help
