If water drips into the stand, does it stagnate in the stand or are there any holes for water to run out?

The middle of the stand has a hole where the water goes down into the bottom of the base, which can be removed and cleaned regularly.

Yes, it has a hole and on the bottom has a cap that hold the water that fall into the hole. hope helps

No. It's fine with a little water missing. Actually, the water will evaporate a little over time anyway. We usually fill it back up, but it's fine without it.

The flat lower area behind the plant holders will over fill . That is where the drain holes are that flow down to the bottom . I drilled a hole in mine on the back side to the level I wanted and ran a clear poly tube next to the wall to drain off the patio just in case .

I bought a connector hose, and it works very well. You can control the water flow by the spigot. The connector hose also helps to provide stability so the unit doesn't fall over. The stand is a nice addition to my garden. Janice

There are holes in mine. Also, the tray doesn't really collect water because the water drains from around the tray due to the way it's constructed. However, it you have a heavy rain, and particularly if it's blowing, then that little roof isn't enough to keep the seed dry.

If the rain barrel fills before you use the water and is going to overflow then lay the hose down on the ground in the direction you could use the water or put the hose in buckets to carry to water other areas/plants. Probably you would be using the water as it fills and it doesn't get a chance to overflow. I keep water in the top for birds to drink & bathe.

If you are referring to the air hose, no. As for any accumulated water I have never a problem with that, it has evaporated .

Ours has yet to drip. Only flaw is rather small opening in which to fill without some spillage but then I'm a shaky dude.

The one I purchased did not come with a stand. i don't know if Castlecreek has one that they sell with a stand. Just a tip that I got from another buyer, I used a half cinder block, put a piece of sprinkler pipe in it and use that as my stand, however, mine is on dirt, not a hard surface, and I set it down in the ground a little. Much cheaper than a stand if you're able to do something like that.

There is a drain hole in the bottom center of each of the plastic planter boxes. There is a removable cap included where you can either use the "holed" end to allow for drainage or the "solid" end to prevent water from draining out.

the shelves are flat and water can run off of them on all sides. If you overflow the pots the water will run off or drip off any of the sides, front or back. but I have not been troubled by this issue. To me its just water. We love our shelves, despite occationally overfilling the plants with water. If the shelves caught the water, it could lead to mildew and bugs moving in.

We have had our dispenser and stand for 7 years now and love it. When I was first learning to clean it, I accidentally put the rubber washer on the outside which caused a leak, but I quickly learned that it goes on the inside. No drips now. I suggest you disassemble the spigot and reassemble it. That should solve your issues.

I haven't noticed if that tells you something...it never overflows and it would not be something I could see without popping the green bottom part off. The bottles and parts mostly air dry from my experience and there wouldn't be a need in my opinion to fuss with water build up in the bottom except maybe every few months-- if you wanted to, at that. This is a great rack for our needs and low maintenance.

Hi, my stand is a natural wood with a beautiful finish and it does not leak at all, as a matter of fact I am ordering another one, the first one I got was for my vacation home and my next one is for my primary residence.

Yes the emitter line has holes at 18 inch intervals for plant rows. The rate of drip is just under 1 gallon per hour. It is only on the Brown tubing though. I did find that you can poke in more emitters if your plants are closer together. I added the mini sprinklers to my emitter line and it's working great!

I've put lawn ornaments and hand gardening tools in mine. It has been through a summer, fall, winter, and spring in the north east... there wasn't any obvious water. As long as you don't over stuff it to the point that the middle is bulging out water does not get in. It does not have a seal but it does close tight enough to keep water out if used correctly.

It humidifies by running water down a mesh filter while air is being blown through the filter and some of the water evaporates. Any water that doesn't evaporate collects at the bottom and drains away. And yes you end up wasting a lot of water.
