Those are super cool! Would you be willing to share the print files?

The blue one is super cute but I love the look of the cactus one! So thematic.

For anyone thinking of doing similar, you can get pretty sturdy planters/pots/vases using vase mode but with really thick extrusions, like in PrusaSlicer setting the extrusion width to something like 0.8mm (using .4mm nozzle). Takes a lot of the fragility and flexing out of vase-mode prints, and it’s surprising how thick extrusions you can make with a regular .4 nozzle.

I use higher temps, 2mm layer height, 0.6mm line width, and 0.4mm nozzle. I find that going higher than 150% has an effect on my surface quality.

True, it does affect surface quality a bit, but I found that for some uses, it’s was actually desirable or at least tolerable

Yes, 200% is definitely water tight.
