Budget Watertight Bottom Tray
The Essential Multi-Purpose Base for Clean and Efficient Propagation.
The Budget Bottom Tray is a fundamental component for any nursery setup, providing a reliable, leak-proof foundation for seed raising and plant maintenance. Crafted from rigid, BPA-free black plastic, this tray is designed to act as a secure reservoir, ensuring that benches and indoor surfaces remain dry while providing a stable platform for various containers.
Versatile Modular Design
This tray has been engineered for maximum flexibility in the potting shed. Its sealed construction makes it the perfect companion for perforated seedling trays, allowing for “bottom watering”—a technique that encourages deep root growth and prevents the displacement of delicate seeds. It is also sized to accommodate a wide range of individual pots and punnets, keeping the growing area tidy and organised.
Key Features and Benefits
Watertight Integrity: The solid, non-perforated base ensures total water containment, making it ideal for use in greenhouses, on windowsills, or within indoor grow stations.
System Compatibility: This tray integrates seamlessly with the entire budget range. It can be paired with a greenhouse lid to create a high-humidity environment or used as a catchment for the budget perforated seedling tray.
Safe and Sustainable: Made from BPA-free polypropylene (PP or “5”), the tray is safe for food-producing plants and is easily recyclable, offering an eco-friendly solution for the conscious gardener.
Durable Performance
Despite its affordable price point, the tray’s rigid build is designed for repeated use across multiple seasons. It is a practical, hard-wearing investment for the home horticulturalist looking to build a professional-standard propagation system.
