My planters will probably not last as long because of it. However they have stood up great so far! I would recommend an exterior grade plywood or MDO ("MDO, or medium density overlay, it's engineered plywood with a resin treated fiber applied to both faces. This gives an extremely smooth finish that is easy to paint. In addition it's rated for exterior use, which means it is safe from the elements, insects, or other outdoor hazards, making it a perfect choice for the new deck or porch").<br />The glue in normal plywood is not exterior grade and will not hold up as long. Hopefully that helps, and I am glad you asked I will make sure to include this in the post!Mindi@MyLove2Createhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13436447612989747237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4516834809117209450.post-41622964430320254792016-09-08T09:39:24.124-06:002016-09-08T09:39:24.124-06:00will the plywood hold up in the weather conditions...will the plywood hold up in the weather conditions outside?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03083948620970068380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4516834809117209450.post-32125890676837281062016-05-11T20:40:23.112-06:002016-05-11T20:40:23.112-06:00These are awesome!
