The Garland Standard Seed Tray Black with Holes is a practical, reusable propagation tray for sowing seeds, raising seedlings and growing young plants. Measuring 37.5 x 23 x 6cm, it combines a useful growing depth with a perforated base that allows excess irrigation water to drain away.

This classic Garland seed tray is suitable for greenhouse, nursery and general garden propagation. It can be filled directly with a suitable seed or propagation compost, or used to organise compatible pots and other small growing containers.

Unlike a solid-base garden tray designed to retain water, this version incorporates multiple drainage holes across the base. These allow excess water to escape, making the tray particularly useful where free drainage is required during germination and early plant development.

Why choose the Garland Standard Seed Tray?

  • 37.5 x 23cm standard format - a practical size for everyday propagation and seed sowing.
  • 6cm tray depth - provides useful depth for propagation compost and developing young roots.
  • Perforated base - multiple holes allow excess irrigation water to drain away.
  • Ideal for seed sowing - suitable for raising a wide range of compatible plants from seed.
  • Useful for young plants - provides a convenient growing and handling area during early development.
  • Versatile open tray - can be used with growing medium or to hold compatible pots and propagation containers.
  • Compact footprint - easy to arrange on greenhouse shelves, benches and propagation areas.
  • Compatible with several Garland lids - can form the base of different Garland propagator configurations.
  • Black finish - practical colour for greenhouse, nursery and garden use.

Perforated base for free drainage

The base of the Garland Standard Seed Tray contains numerous drainage holes. These provide a route for excess irrigation water to move out of the growing medium rather than remaining trapped in the bottom of the tray.

This is particularly useful during propagation, when careful moisture management is important. Growing media should be kept at an appropriate moisture level for the crop while still allowing sufficient drainage and aeration around developing roots.

Because this is the perforated version, water can pass directly through the tray. When using it indoors or on a bench or surface that needs protection, place a suitable solid collection tray underneath.

For seed sowing & young plant production

With a depth of 6cm, the tray provides useful growing-medium volume for conventional seed sowing. Simply fill it with a suitable propagation compost, level the surface and sow according to the requirements of the chosen crop.

Once seedlings have developed sufficiently, they can be pricked out or transplanted into individual cells or pots. The appropriate timing will depend on the plant species, root development and growing conditions.

The tray can also be used as a carrier for compatible pots. Grouping young plants together in a tray makes batches easier to organise, move and manage while still allowing water to drain through the perforated base.

Compatible with Garland propagator lids

Garland's standard seed tray format is compatible with several matching propagator lids, allowing growers to configure the tray for different propagation requirements.

Garland Large Budget Propagator Lid GA0014
Garland Large Budget Vented Propagator Lid GA0015
Garland Large High Dome Propagator Lid GA0018
Garland Large High Dome Propagator with Holes Lid GA0020

These compatible lids are available separately. The tray can therefore be used on its own for open propagation or combined with a suitable Garland lid to create a covered propagator.

Versatile greenhouse & nursery tray

Although designed primarily for propagation, the simple open format makes this Garland tray useful for several everyday growing tasks.

Seed sowing Fill with an appropriate seed or propagation compost for conventional sowing.
Seedling production Provides a contained growing area for seedlings before transplanting or potting on.
Young plant handling Useful for organising and moving compatible small pots and young plants together.
Covered propagation Combine with a compatible Garland propagator lid where a covered propagation environment is required.
Greenhouse & nursery use Compact dimensions allow multiple trays to be arranged efficiently across shelving and propagation benches.

Does this Garland seed tray have drainage holes?

Yes. This is the perforated version, with multiple drainage holes across the base to allow excess irrigation water to escape.

Yes. Fill the tray with an appropriate seed or propagation compost and sow according to the depth, spacing and growing requirements of the chosen crop.

Can I use the tray to hold plant pots?

Yes. The tray can also be used to organise and carry compatible small pots and young plants while allowing irrigation water to drain through the base.

Can the tray be used indoors?

Yes, but water can pass through the drainage holes. Place a suitable solid collection tray underneath when using it on a surface that needs protection.

What is the benefit of the 6cm tray depth?

The 6cm depth provides useful space for propagation compost and developing young roots while retaining a compact, easy-to-handle seed tray format.

What is the difference between a perforated and solid seed tray?

A perforated tray allows excess water to drain away. A solid-base tray retains water and is more appropriate where run-off collection or bottom watering is required.
