Most baskets don't do well getting wet. I recommend once a week bringing the planter basket to your sink, remove the green plants and give then a good soak on the top of the soil. This seems to be the best way to give them enough water while allowing them to drain. Then fill the sink to cover the bottom of plastic African violet pots to allow them to soak up the water. Remove plants from the sink and place them on a towel or paper towel to catch water drips. Then reassemble in the basket.
