The butt looks great. The tap is high quality. It's working well, but I am confused by the planter. There is a hole with a plastic cap in the middle of the planter. If you keep the plug in the planter fills with water when it rains, not good for plants. I f the plastic plug was removed the water would flow into the butt but so would plant matter, compost etc etc. I am not sure how to make the planter drain without this happening. I am thinking of possibly replacing the plug with a fine metal gauze. If anyone has an answer I would love to know.
