With self-watering trays for plants, prized flowers and herbs can fill themselves up whenever they need a drink. In essence, this is a mini capillary table which will keep potted plants watered for up to 14 days. The surface area of roughly 2.4 square feet can hold one large plant container or several smaller ones for use on grow tables, countertops or large windowsills.
Our self-watering trays feature a base reservoir tray which contains a "stilted" inner support platform which is covered in capillary matting. The base tray provides a reservoir of eight liters (about 2 gallons) of water. By ensuring that compost exposed at the bottom of plant pots is in contact with the capillary matting, the plants will water themselves! A self-watering tray is invaluable for keeping plants watered for those going away on vacation. The size of the unit also makes it particularly useful for use in greenhouses.
The base tray and inner support platform are manufactured from recycled polypropylene and polystyrene, respectively.
