We have a tremendously large plant that requests to be repotted because its becoming root bound and it keeps wanting to spill out over because the pot is not strong enough to hold it up.
We live surrounded by a VERY smal town with no city close by so our shopping option are limited. I did find a nice earthenware planter at the local gardening/hardware store . The only problem is its for outdoor planting and within is no drain hole. I thought about trying to so if one could be drilled into it but consequently I would have to find something to sit underneath to stop the water and I dont really approaching how that looks unless it matches the planter and at hand is nothing similar to this at the store that matches, also its a deeply very brawny planter so it would have to be something severely durable to sit underneath that .
We do have planters in a minute that have something built into the bottom of them..a sort of elevated blind at the bottom to let the river drain so I'm wondering if theres some ideas almost how to make something approaching that.
Answers: You'll eventually need to bring back a planter with a drain hole. The solid one is for showy purposes. The drainage is necessary so the roots don't sit within water. A puddle within the pot only leaves a place for putrefaction and build up of mineral salts that will become hurtful to the plant.

well you can drill holes surrounded by too it or you can just hand down it how it is. you it does not have drain holes within does not matter too much it lately holdes the water surrounded by the bottom untill it is all used up
