This accomplished, sit and watch it for any annomalous motion. Play close attention, though. With its buddy already pushing up -- whatever it was you were going to plant in it -- you might have to place the unbroken pot on a suicide watch.

It is stronger some days than others. Second, a big bird landing on the edge, or a cat jumping on it.
