No,it is attached. There are 3 cups that can have plants in them or they can be left empty.

The cutouts for the 5 plants are molded into the top of the planter . The top portion is screwed down to the bottom which holds the water supply and supports the wrought iron faucet assembly which supports the wrought iron faucet. I placed 5 artificial plants in mine as the minor splashing of the water tended to soak the real plants that I previously used Hope this was helpful

You can leave it on... but you might need to make changes every now then... it's a bit annoying cuz mine is really high and my wife can't reach it

I guess you can leave the back off. My husband put it together. Sorry for the mistake.

Surely what this person wants is a way to disable it while working in the garden, for instance, so it doesn't drain the batteries as it goes off constantly. I wish it had an on/off switch for just that reason. I can't imagine any reason that it would harm it to temporarily disable it by putting a bucket over it.

There is no way to turn it off, but after a short time it powers off by itself. However, if you barely touch it, it will come back on again. I just put mine in a place where I won't bump it when I'm done.

I did not remove it. I have a glass desk so it worked fine leaving it on. If you want to stay in place you might have to remove the plastic. I was worried about the dust catching to the bottom.

Possibly, you may need to hire a handy man as do I...in the long run the $25 hour most handy men charge will be a huge savings of your time and money spent on researching the best option. The hardware that came with planter is incredibly strong and of the best quality available.

You can turn it off! Or adjust the pressure to make it very subtle. But yes, you can turn it off separately.

The screen is a nice one but since I don't have anything planted in the planter, water collects there. I will probably drill holes in the planter so water doesn't collect there but I would imagine mosquitoes will prosper there if I don't do something about it.

You have the option to NOT put them on in the first place. I left mine OFF.

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 back poles are continuous, so you cannot leave them off. You could leave the shelf off, but the poles will remain really tall.

No way to turn it off that I know of. It is probably a good safety feature.

It doesn't say you need to turn off lights. Just leave enclosed for 24 hours and have plants 4' away. I put it on an overturned container to raise it up.

Mine fit tight, when filled it is almost impossible to knock it off. My friend put a towel under the planter to make hers fit tighter.

You can turn it off however it is really a piece of junk and don't recommend you to buy it. It is made in China if that tells you anything.

You don't need to do anything but place it on the rail and add your planting stuff. I've had mine sitting on my deck rail for over a year now.We've had some bad weather in Boston during the past year and the planter is just fine. I just planted a new geranium in it last week!
