Unit price perThe 2L Square Round Plant Pot is a compact black horticultural grow pot designed for potting-on young plants, nursery production and efficient greenhouse growing. Measuring approximately 13.5cm across the upper rim, 11cm across the base and 14.5cm high, it combines the space-saving advantages of a square pot with a tapered lower profile.
A 2 litre container provides a useful step between small propagation pots and larger nursery or finishing containers. It gives developing roots additional growing-medium volume while keeping plants compact, lightweight and easy to handle.
The square upper profile allows neighbouring pots to sit closely together, helping maximise available bench, greenhouse and nursery space. This makes the format particularly useful where larger numbers of young plants are being grown simultaneously.
The tapered lower section creates a practical root zone, assists removal of established root balls during potting-on and allows empty pots to nest together for efficient storage.
Suitable for peat-based and peat-free compost, soil, coco coir and other horticultural growing media, this versatile 2L pot can be used for a wide range of edible, ornamental and nursery crops.
Why choose the 2L Square Round Plant Pot?
Space-efficient square round design
Square round pots combine features of both square and conventional round horticultural containers.
The predominantly square upper profile allows pots to be positioned efficiently alongside one another. Compared with rows of conventional round pots, this can reduce the unused space between containers and help growers make better use of nursery and greenhouse benches.
The lower section tapers towards the base, creating a practical growing profile while allowing empty containers to nest together for compact storage.
This combination makes the format particularly useful for professional growing-on applications where plant density, handling and storage efficiency are important.
A practical 2 litre growing-on pot
Two litres provides a useful intermediate root volume for plants that have outgrown smaller propagation or nursery pots.
Potting-on into a 2L container gives developing roots access to additional growing medium without immediately placing a young plant into an unnecessarily large volume of substrate.
This makes the size particularly useful for progressive potting, where plants are moved through increasingly larger containers as their root systems develop.
For compact plants and shorter production cycles, a 2L container may also be suitable as a final growing or retail pot.
What can you grow in a 2L pot?
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot is suitable for growing-on a broad range of plants, including:
Whether 2L is suitable as the final container depends on the crop, mature plant size and growing period. Vigorous plants will generally require additional root volume as they develop.
Ideal for progressive potting-on
Progressive potting allows the container volume to increase alongside development of the root system.
A 2L pot is particularly useful after smaller propagation and growing-on containers. Once roots have established throughout the existing medium, moving into 2 litres provides fresh substrate and additional space for continued growth.
Avoid potting very small plants into excessively large containers unnecessarily. A large volume of wet, unrooted growing medium can take longer to dry and may make irrigation more difficult to manage.
Suitable growing media
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide variety of horticultural growing media, including:
Choose a substrate appropriate for the crop and growing method. Moisture retention, drainage and irrigation frequency can vary considerably between different growing media.
Watering plants in 2L pots
Smaller containers respond relatively quickly to changes in temperature, light levels and plant water demand, so substrate moisture should be checked regularly.
Immediately after potting-on, roots may occupy only part of the fresh growing medium. Water according to the needs of the developing root system rather than automatically saturating the entire pot on a fixed schedule.
As the plant becomes established, increased root mass and foliage will normally increase water demand.
The pot can be used with hand watering and compatible nursery, greenhouse and drip irrigation systems.
Fits the 14cm Pot Saucer
The 2L Square Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 14cm saucer, product code P00047.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 17cm across the rim, 14cm across the base and 2cm high.
A saucer can help collect irrigation runoff when plants are grown indoors, on greenhouse benches or on surfaces that need protection from excess water.
Avoid leaving the pot permanently standing in stagnant runoff unless this forms part of the intended irrigation method.
Ideal for nursery & greenhouse production
The compact 2L format provides professional growers with a useful balance between root volume and production footprint.
Its square upper profile allows plants to be arranged efficiently while young. As the canopy develops, containers can be spaced further apart where required to improve airflow and light distribution.
The manageable size also makes plants straightforward to move, grade, irrigate and prepare for sale or further potting-on.
Practical & reusable
Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent crops.
Remove old roots and growing-medium residue before cleaning. Appropriate hygiene between crops can help reduce the risk of transferring pests or plant pathogens.
The tapered profile allows empty pots to nest together, reducing the storage space required between growing cycles.

Unit price perThe 20L Round Plant Pot is a large black horticultural grow pot designed for established plants, shrubs, larger ornamentals and productive edible crops. Measuring approximately 35.5cm across the upper rim, 27.5cm across the base and 29cm high, it provides generous root volume while retaining the practical tapered shape of a professional nursery container.
With approximately 20 litres of growing-medium capacity, this pot is well suited to plants that have progressed beyond smaller nursery containers and need substantially more room for continued root and canopy development.
The wide upper opening makes potting, top-dressing and checking the growing medium straightforward, while the tapered profile helps established root balls release from the container when plants need repotting or transplanting.
Suitable for peat-based and peat-free compost, soil mixes, coco coir and other appropriate horticultural substrates, the 20L Round Pot is a versatile choice for professional nurseries, greenhouses, polytunnels, indoor growing and home gardens.
Why choose the 20L Round Plant Pot?
Generous 20 litre root volume
Moving a plant into a 20L container gives its root system substantially more growing-medium volume than smaller nursery pots. This can support larger plants, longer growing periods and crops with greater water and nutrient demand.
The additional substrate also creates a larger moisture and nutrient reserve. This can make a well-established 20L container less prone to the rapid drying associated with very small pots, although irrigation requirements will still depend heavily on crop size, substrate and growing conditions.
For many ornamental and edible crops, 20L can serve as a substantial final container. Particularly vigorous or long-lived plants may eventually benefit from an even larger pot or permanent planting position.
What can you grow in a 20L pot?
A 20L plant pot provides enough root volume for a broad range of established plants and container-grown crops, including:
Final pot size should always be selected according to the mature size, vigour and expected growing period of the individual plant.
Ideal for potting-on established plants
The 20L Round Pot is particularly useful when plants have developed substantial root systems in smaller containers and require additional space to continue growing.
Signs that a plant may need potting-on include roots extensively occupying the existing container, increasingly rapid drying after irrigation, restricted growth or a plant becoming disproportionately large compared with its current pot.
When potting-on, use an appropriate fresh growing medium and position the existing root ball at a suitable depth before filling around it. Water appropriately after transplanting to settle the new substrate around the root zone.
Suitable growing media
The 20L Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide range of horticultural growing media, including:
Growing-medium structure becomes increasingly important in larger containers. Choose a substrate that provides an appropriate balance between moisture retention, aeration and drainage for the crop being grown.
Watering plants in 20L containers
Larger pots contain considerably more growing medium than small propagation containers, so irrigation should be matched to both the size of the plant and how extensively roots have colonised the substrate.
A newly transplanted plant may not immediately use moisture from the entire 20L volume. Avoid repeatedly saturating a large volume of unrooted substrate simply because the surface appears dry.
Once a large plant becomes fully established, water demand can increase considerably, particularly during warm weather or periods of rapid vegetative, flowering or fruit development.
The container is suitable for hand watering and compatible nursery, greenhouse and drip irrigation systems.
Fits the 40cm Pot Saucer
The 20L Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 40cm saucer, product code P00082.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 41cm across the rim, 37.5cm across the base and 6cm high.
A saucer is particularly useful where large container plants are grown on greenhouse benches, patios, indoor surfaces or other areas where irrigation runoff needs to be collected.
Unless using an irrigation method specifically designed around standing water, avoid leaving the root zone permanently sitting in stagnant runoff.
Suitable for nursery & greenhouse production
The 20L format provides professional growers with a substantial container for finishing larger nursery plants or holding established stock before sale or transplanting.
Its conventional round, tapered profile makes it straightforward to arrange, handle and reposition plants as crop spacing requirements change.
As plants develop larger canopies, adequate spacing between pots can help improve airflow, light interception and access for irrigation and crop maintenance.
Reusable horticultural grow pot
Pots that remain in sound condition can be reused for subsequent crops, making them a practical choice for nurseries and growers with repeat production cycles.
Remove old roots and substrate residue before cleaning. Where pots are transferred between different crops, suitable hygiene procedures can help minimise the transfer of pests or plant pathogens.
The tapered shape also allows empty pots to nest together, reducing the storage space required when they are not in use.

Unit price perThe 11cm Square Plant Pot is a compact 1 litre black horticultural pot designed for propagation, potting-on and nursery production. Its square footprint allows plants to be positioned efficiently on benches and growing areas, making it particularly useful when larger numbers of young plants need to be accommodated in a limited space.
With a nominal capacity of 1 litre, this pot provides a practical step up from smaller seedling and propagation containers. It gives developing root systems additional growing-medium volume without moving young plants directly into an unnecessarily large container.
The tapered sides help established root balls release from the container when plants are ready for potting-on, while the square upper profile reduces the unused gaps normally created between conventional round pots.
Suitable for peat-based and peat-free compost, soil mixes, coco coir and other horticultural growing media, the 11cm Square Pot is suitable for professional nurseries, greenhouses, propagation areas, indoor growing and home horticulture.
Why choose the 11cm Square Plant Pot?
Space-saving square plant pot
One of the main advantages of a square plant pot is efficient use of growing space. Square containers can sit closely alongside one another, reducing the gaps that naturally occur between rows of round pots.
This can be particularly valuable in propagation units, nurseries and greenhouses where hundreds or thousands of young plants may occupy the same production area.
As plants develop larger canopies, pots can then be spaced further apart where required to improve airflow, light distribution and access for irrigation.
The tapered sides also allow empty pots to nest together, reducing the amount of storage space required between growing cycles.
A practical 1 litre growing-on pot
A 1L plant pot is a useful intermediate container for plants that have established in smaller propagation cells, plug trays or starter pots.
Moving a young plant into approximately one litre of growing medium provides fresh substrate and additional root space while keeping the container volume manageable during early development.
For many nursery crops, the 1L stage provides an effective bridge between propagation and larger 2L, 3L or finishing containers.
Compact plants and short-cycle crops may also be grown to sale or maturity in a 1L container where the available root volume is appropriate.
What can you grow in a 1L square pot?
The 11cm Square Plant Pot is suitable for a wide variety of young and compact plants, including:
Whether 1L is suitable as a final container depends on the mature size and vigour of the crop. Larger plants will normally require potting-on as their root systems develop.
Suitable growing media
The 11cm Square Plant Pot can be used with a broad range of horticultural substrates, including:
Select a growing medium appropriate for the crop and irrigation system. Different substrates vary considerably in water-holding capacity, drainage and air-filled porosity.
When should you pot on into a 1L container?
Potting-on should generally be based on plant and root development rather than following a fixed timetable.
Young plants may be ready for a 1L pot when roots have established throughout their existing propagation medium, the smaller container is drying increasingly quickly or additional root volume is needed to support continued growth.
Progressive potting can make irrigation easier to manage because the amount of growing medium remains reasonably proportionate to the developing root system.
Watering plants in 1L pots
One litre containers hold substantially less growing medium than large finishing pots, so moisture levels can change relatively quickly as plants become established.
Check the substrate regularly rather than watering solely according to a fixed timetable. Temperature, light levels, plant size, root development and the chosen growing medium can all significantly affect irrigation frequency.
Immediately after potting-on, avoid repeatedly saturating fresh substrate that has not yet been fully colonised by roots. Water demand will normally increase as the plant develops.
Ideal for propagation & nursery production
The combination of compact volume and square footprint makes the 11cm 1L pot particularly useful for professional growing-on applications.
Plants can initially be positioned closely together to maximise production space before being progressively spaced as their canopies increase in size.
The manageable container size also makes young plants straightforward to move, grade, irrigate and prepare for potting-on or retail.
Compatible 25cm Pot Saucer
The existing product specification lists the 25cm saucer, product code P00110, for use with this pot.
The saucer measures approximately 25.5cm across the rim, 21.5cm across the base and 4cm high.

Why choose the 15L Round Plant Pot?
Substantial 15 litre root volume
A 15L plant pot provides considerably more growing-medium volume than small propagation and intermediate nursery containers, giving established plants room to develop larger root systems and support increased above-ground growth.
The additional substrate volume also creates a greater reserve of moisture and nutrients. Once fully rooted, this can make moisture management more forgiving than in smaller pots, although irrigation requirements will still vary according to plant size, growing medium and environmental conditions.
Fifteen litres is a particularly useful size for plants that need significant root space while still remaining relatively easy to handle and reposition.
What can you grow in a 15L pot?
The 15L Round Plant Pot is suitable for a wide range of established edible and ornamental plants, including:
Whether 15L is appropriate as the final container depends on the mature size, vigour and expected growing period of the individual crop. Larger plants may eventually benefit from additional root volume.
Ideal for potting-on established plants
The 15L Round Pot provides a useful next stage for established plants that have thoroughly rooted through smaller containers.
Signs that a plant may be ready for a larger pot include roots extensively occupying the existing growing medium, increasingly rapid drying after irrigation or the plant becoming disproportionately large relative to its current container.
When potting-on, use a suitable fresh growing medium and position the existing root ball at an appropriate depth before filling around it. Water appropriately after transplanting to settle the new substrate around the root zone.
Suitable growing media
The 15L Round Plant Pot can be used with a broad range of horticultural substrates, including:
Choose a growing medium appropriate for the crop and cultivation method. In larger containers, a good balance between moisture retention, drainage and air-filled porosity is particularly important for maintaining a healthy root environment.
Watering plants in 15L containers
Irrigation should be matched to the size of the plant, development of the root system and moisture-holding characteristics of the chosen substrate.
Immediately after potting-on, a plant's existing roots may occupy only part of the fresh 15L volume. Avoid repeatedly saturating a large volume of unrooted growing medium simply because the upper surface appears dry.
Once the plant becomes well established, water demand can increase considerably, particularly during warm weather and periods of rapid vegetative growth, flowering or fruit development.
The pot is suitable for hand watering and compatible nursery, greenhouse and drip irrigation systems.
Fits the 30cm Pot Saucer
The 15L Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 30cm saucer, product code P00019.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 31cm across the rim, 28cm across the base and 5cm high.
Using a saucer can help collect irrigation runoff and protect greenhouse benches, patios, shelving, floors and other surfaces from excess water.
Unless using a cultivation method specifically designed around standing water, avoid leaving the pot permanently sitting in stagnant runoff.
Professional nursery & greenhouse grow pot
The 15L size provides commercial growers with a practical container for finishing larger plants and holding established nursery stock.
Its conventional round shape and tapered profile make plants straightforward to arrange and reposition as spacing requirements change throughout production.
As plant canopies develop, increasing the spacing between pots where necessary can help improve airflow, light interception and access for irrigation and crop maintenance.
Reusable horticultural plant pot
Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent plants.
Remove old roots and growing-medium residue before cleaning. Where containers are reused between different crops, suitable hygiene procedures can help reduce the risk of transferring pests or plant pathogens.
The tapered profile also allows empty pots to nest together, helping minimise storage requirements between production cycles.

Ideal for potting-on established plants
A 7.5 litre container provides a useful step up for plants that have developed a healthy root system in smaller pots.
Increasing the available growing-medium volume gives roots additional space to develop and provides a larger reserve of moisture and nutrients. Avoid moving very small plants into unnecessarily large volumes of wet substrate, as their limited root systems may initially use water relatively slowly.
When potting-on, position the existing root ball at an appropriate depth, fill around it with fresh growing medium and water sufficiently to settle the new substrate.
Suitable growing media
The 7.5L Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide range of horticultural substrates, including:
Choose the growing medium according to the crop and cultivation method. Good drainage, moisture retention and root-zone aeration should all be considered when selecting a substrate.
Watering plants in 7.5L containers
Watering frequency depends on plant size, root development, substrate, temperature, airflow and light levels.
Recently transplanted plants may initially occupy only part of the available growing medium. Irrigation should therefore be matched to the developing root system rather than repeatedly saturating the entire pot unnecessarily.
Once fully established, plants can use water considerably faster, particularly during warm weather and periods of rapid growth, flowering or fruit development.
The pot is suitable for hand watering as well as compatible drip and automated irrigation systems.
Fits the 30cm Pot Saucer
The 7.5L Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 30cm saucer, product code P00019.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 31cm across the rim, 28cm across the base and 5cm high.
A saucer can help collect excess irrigation water and protect greenhouse benches, floors, shelving, patios and other surfaces from runoff.
Unless the chosen growing method specifically requires standing water, avoid leaving the root zone permanently sitting in stagnant runoff.
Professional nursery & greenhouse grow pot
The 7.5L size combines useful growing volume with a relatively compact footprint, making it suitable for commercial nursery production and growing-on established stock.
Its round format makes plants straightforward to arrange and reposition as crops develop. Increasing spacing where necessary as foliage expands can improve airflow, light interception and access for watering and maintenance.
The tapered profile also allows empty pots to nest together, reducing the amount of storage space required between production cycles.
Reusable horticultural plant pot
Pots that remain in sound condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent crops.
Remove old growing medium and root debris before cleaning. Where pots are reused between different plants or production cycles, appropriate hygiene procedures can help reduce the transfer of pests and plant pathogens.

Yes. Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for subsequent plants. Is a 7.5L pot a good intermediate growing size?
Yes. It provides a useful step between smaller propagation or nursery pots and larger finishing containers, allowing plants additional root space without immediately moving into a very large pot.
The 5L Round Plant Pot is a versatile black horticultural grow pot for growing-on established plants, vegetables, herbs, ornamentals and nursery stock. Measuring approximately 23cm across the upper rim, 17cm across the base and 18cm high, it offers a useful balance between root volume and growing-space efficiency.
With a nominal capacity of 5 litres, this is a practical intermediate container for plants that have outgrown smaller propagation and nursery pots but do not yet require a large finishing container.
The traditional tapered round profile is suitable for professional nursery production, greenhouse and polytunnel growing, indoor cultivation and general garden use. It can be filled with peat-free compost, conventional potting substrates, coco coir, living soil and other suitable horticultural growing media.
Its broad upper opening provides convenient access for planting, watering and top-dressing, while the tapered profile makes established root balls easier to remove when plants are ready to be potted-on.
Why choose the 5L Round Plant Pot?
What can you grow in a 5L pot?
Five-litre plant pots are widely used for growing-on established plants and can accommodate a broad range of edible and ornamental crops.
Whether 5L is suitable as the final container depends on the species, cultivar and mature plant size. More vigorous crops can use it as an intermediate stage before being moved into a larger pot.
A practical potting-on size
The 5L Round Plant Pot provides a useful next step for plants that have established a healthy root system in smaller containers.
Potting-on increases the available volume of growing medium, giving developing roots additional space while increasing the reservoir of available moisture and nutrients.
When transplanting, position the existing root ball at an appropriate depth, fill around it with fresh substrate and water sufficiently to settle the growing medium around the roots.
Avoid moving very small plants into excessively wet growing media. Newly transplanted plants may initially use water slowly until their roots begin colonising the additional substrate.
Suitable growing media
The 5L Round Plant Pot can be used with a wide range of horticultural substrates, including:
Select the substrate according to the plant and cultivation method. The correct balance of moisture retention, drainage and root-zone aeration is important for healthy container-grown plants.
Watering plants in 5L pots
Water requirements vary considerably according to crop size, substrate, root development, temperature, airflow and light intensity.
Newly potted plants may not immediately use the full volume of moisture held within the container. Watering should therefore be matched to the developing root system rather than keeping the entire pot continuously saturated.
As plants become established, their water demand can increase significantly, particularly during warm conditions and periods of vigorous vegetative growth, flowering or fruit development.
The pot can be used with hand watering or suitable drip and automated irrigation systems.
Fits the 30cm Pot Saucer
The 5L Round Plant Pot is listed for use with the 30cm saucer, product code P00019.
The compatible saucer measures approximately 31cm across the rim, 28cm across the base and 5cm high.
Using a saucer can help contain irrigation runoff and protect greenhouse benches, grow-room floors, shelving, patios and other surfaces.
Unless the chosen cultivation method specifically requires it, avoid leaving the plant permanently standing in stagnant runoff.
Professional nursery & greenhouse plant pot
The 5L size is particularly useful for commercial growing because it provides meaningful root volume without taking up the space required by larger finishing containers.
Plants can be positioned efficiently during earlier growth and then spaced further apart as their canopy develops. This can improve access, airflow and light distribution through the crop.
The tapered profile also allows empty pots to nest together for more efficient storage between production cycles.
Reusable horticultural grow pot
Pots that remain in good condition can be emptied, cleaned and reused for future plants.
Remove old growing medium and root debris before cleaning. Appropriate hygiene procedures are recommended when containers are reused between different crops or production cycles.

Unit price perThe Modiform 2320 Transplant 40 is a professional 40-cell propagation tray designed for the efficient production of young plants, seedlings and rooted cuttings in commercial nurseries and propagation facilities.
Arranged in a practical 5 x 8 configuration, the tray provides 40 individual growing cells, each with an 83cc volume. This provides useful root volume for young plants while maintaining an efficient plant density across the tray.
The tray measures 52.5 x 30.5cm and is manufactured from polystyrene (PS). Its rigid construction provides the stability required during filling, planting, watering, handling and movement through a professional propagation operation.
Modiform specifically designs the 2320 for young plant propagation. It can be used with different growing media, including conventional loose substrate and compatible Growcoon propagation systems, making it a versatile option for nurseries producing a wide range of crops.
Why choose the Modiform 2320 Transplant Tray?
Designed specifically for young plant propagation
The Modiform Transplant range is designed around the requirements of professional young plant production. With 40 defined cells, the 2320 keeps individual root systems separated while allowing a substantial number of plants to be managed as a single tray.
This makes the format useful for both seed-raised and vegetatively propagated material. Plants can establish within their individual cells before being transplanted into larger pots, containers or their final production system.
The consistent cell format also helps growers standardise substrate volume, irrigation and crop handling across each propagation batch.
40 cells with 83cc of growing volume
Each of the 40 cells provides approximately 83cc of growing volume. The tray therefore offers a useful balance between propagation density and individual root-zone volume.
Compared with very high-density plug trays, the larger individual cells give young plants additional space for root development before transplanting. This can be particularly useful where crops need to remain in the propagation tray for longer or where a more developed transplant is required.
Modiform specifies a density of approximately 250 cells per square metre for the 2320 format.
Suitable for loose substrate & Growcoon systems
Modiform confirms that the 2320 Transplant Tray can be used with several growing-media systems, including conventional loose growing media and compatible Growcoon propagation products.
With loose substrate, the individual cells can be filled with an appropriate propagation mix selected for the crop and irrigation system. The defined cell volume makes it easier to maintain consistent filling across a production batch.
Compatibility with alternative propagation systems also makes the 2320 useful for growers looking to integrate the tray into more specialised young plant production methods.
Built for commercial nursery workflows
At 52.5 x 30.5cm, the 2320 is designed as a professional production tray rather than a small domestic seed tray. Its rigid PS construction helps it maintain shape during routine handling and movement around the nursery.
The regular 5 x 8 layout also makes visual crop assessment straightforward. Individual cells can be inspected systematically for germination, rooting, irrigation consistency and general plant development.
Modiform's 2320 tray is also used within automated commercial propagation environments, making it suitable for growers developing efficient, repeatable young plant production systems.
From propagation to potting-on
Once the young plants have developed an adequately established root system, they can be transplanted from the 2320 into their next production stage.
Avoid leaving vigorous crops in the tray substantially beyond the point at which the available root volume is fully occupied. The correct transplanting stage will depend on the crop, propagation method, growing medium, temperature, irrigation and intended next container size.
For best results, transplant while the root ball is sufficiently established to hold the growing medium together but before plants become excessively root-bound.

Unit price perThe Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Thermoformed Pot in Black is a professional nursery pot designed for bedding plants, young ornamentals, propagation and high-volume commercial plant production.
Its 10.5cm low-profile format provides useful growing space while avoiding the additional depth and growing-media requirement of a taller container. This makes it particularly well suited to compact and relatively short-cycle crops where efficient use of substrate and growing space is important.
The thermoformed construction produces a lightweight, consistent pot that is easy to handle throughout potting, spacing, growing, order picking and retail preparation. Its traditional black finish provides the clean, understated appearance expected from a professional nursery container.
Manufactured in the West Midlands by UK horticultural manufacturer Aeroplas, this pot forms part of a range developed specifically for professional growers, nurseries and garden retailers. A full pallet contains 15,912 pots, making it an efficient option for large-scale production programmes.
Why choose the Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Pot?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer producing pots, trays and other plastic products for the professional horticultural industry.
Rather than being a general-purpose container adapted for growing, the Aeroplas horticultural range is developed around the practical requirements of commercial nurseries, plant producers and garden retailers.
Aeroplas also has a longstanding involvement in the horticultural plastics sector and the industry's move towards more practical recycling and circular use of plastic products. For professional growers, the combination of specialist horticultural design and UK production provides a strong alternative to generic imported nursery pots.
Why use a low-profile 10.5cm pot?
Container depth should suit the crop being produced. A deeper pot is not automatically better if the additional root volume is unnecessary during the intended production period.
The Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Pot provides the width of a useful nursery container while keeping the overall profile compact. For appropriate crops, this can reduce the amount of growing medium required per plant compared with moving directly into a deeper container.
Across a large commercial production run, even modest reductions in unnecessary substrate volume can become significant, particularly for bedding and seasonal crops produced in high numbers.
Ideal for bedding plants & commercial nursery production
The 10.5cm low format can be used across a broad range of professional crop programmes, including:
Crop suitability will ultimately depend on the plant's root system, growth rate, intended production period and required finished size.
Thermoformed for efficient high-volume growing
Thermoformed pots are widely used by professional growers because they combine low weight with consistent dimensions and efficient large-scale manufacture.
Lightweight containers are easier to handle in quantity, while a consistent pot format supports repeatable potting, spacing, irrigation and dispatch processes throughout the nursery.
These advantages become increasingly important where thousands of plants are being produced to the same specification.
Efficient use of professional growing media
The low-profile format makes this pot particularly useful where growers want sufficient root-zone space without filling unnecessary container depth.
Select the growing medium according to the crop and production system. A suitable professional substrate should provide the required balance of moisture retention, drainage, aeration, nutrient availability and structural stability.
Fill pots consistently without excessive compaction. Maintaining a repeatable bulk density across a production batch helps promote more uniform irrigation and root development.
Managing irrigation in low-profile pots
Smaller and shallower containers can respond relatively quickly to changes in temperature, light and plant water demand because the available growing-media volume is lower than in larger pots.
Monitor the substrate rather than watering solely to a fixed timetable. Irrigation frequency will vary according to crop type, plant size, growing medium, environmental conditions and production stage.
Water thoroughly enough to wet the active root zone while allowing excess moisture to drain. Avoid maintaining the growing medium continuously saturated, as healthy roots require both moisture and oxygen.
Built for commercial production at scale
A full pallet contains 15,912 Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Pots, making this a genuinely commercial format for nurseries producing substantial crop volumes.
Standardising production around a consistent pot can simplify substrate calculations, potting operations, bench planning, irrigation management, stock control and customer order preparation.
The black finish also means plants can progress from production through wholesale and into retail without requiring a separate decorative container for many conventional nursery applications.

Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Pot FAQs
Where are Aeroplas pots manufactured?
Aeroplas is a UK horticultural manufacturer based in the West Midlands, producing pots and other products for professional growers and nurseries. What does 10.5cm low mean?
The pot has a nominal 10.5cm size but uses a shallower, low-profile design. It is intended for crops that benefit from the width of this pot size without requiring a deeper container. What is a thermoformed nursery pot?
Thermoforming uses heated plastic to form the required pot shape. It enables lightweight and consistent nursery pots to be produced efficiently in the large quantities required by commercial horticulture. What plants suit a 10.5cm low pot?
It can suit many bedding plants, young ornamentals, herbs, rooted cuttings, seedlings and compact seasonal crops. The appropriate container depends on the individual plant and how long it will remain in the pot. Why choose a low pot instead of a standard-depth pot?
For suitable crops, a low pot can provide sufficient growing space while reducing unnecessary substrate volume. This can be particularly useful in high-volume, relatively short-cycle production. Is this pot intended for professional growers?
Yes. Its thermoformed construction, high pallet quantity and nursery-focused format make it particularly suited to commercial plant production. Can plants be retailed in the black pot?
Yes. Black nursery pots provide a familiar, neutral presentation that can move with the crop from production through wholesale and into garden centre or plant retail environments. Does a low pot need watering more frequently?
Potentially, depending on the crop and conditions. A lower growing-media volume can dry more quickly under warm, bright or windy conditions, so irrigation should be based on actual substrate moisture and plant demand. Can I use peat-free growing media in this pot?
Yes, provided the chosen growing medium is suitable for the crop and production system. Irrigation and feeding should be managed according to the physical and nutritional characteristics of that particular substrate. Is UK manufacture useful for commercial growers?
For UK businesses, domestically manufactured horticultural products can support a shorter supply chain while providing access to products developed specifically for the professional British horticultural market. How should empty pots be stored?
Keep unused pots clean, dry and protected from unnecessary crushing or damage until required for production. How many Aeroplas 10.5cm Low Pots are supplied on a pallet?
A full pallet contains 15,912 pots, making it suitable for high-volume bedding, seasonal and nursery plant production.

Why choose the Aeroplas 9cm Low Pot?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based British manufacturer producing specialist plastic products for professional horticulture. Its pot and tray ranges are developed specifically around the needs of commercial plant production, handling and retail.
For UK nurseries and growers, domestically manufactured pots can also form part of a shorter, more resilient horticultural supply chain while supporting British manufacturing.
Aeroplas has an established focus on the changing requirements surrounding horticultural plastics, including the need to make plant pots practical not only for growers but also for the wider horticultural supply and recycling chain.
Why choose a low-profile 9cm pot?
A low pot is useful where a crop requires the growing area of a 9cm container but does not need the additional depth and growing-media volume of a taller format.
This can be advantageous for compact bedding plants, young ornamentals, seasonal crops and other relatively short-cycle plants. Using a container appropriately sized for the crop can help growers avoid unnecessary substrate consumption while maintaining sufficient root volume for the intended production stage.
The lower profile can also help create a compact finished plant presentation where the container should remain visually secondary to the crop.
Suitable for propagation, bedding & young plant production
The Aeroplas 9cm Low Pot can be incorporated into a wide range of professional production programmes, including:
Thermoformed for efficient commercial production
Thermoformed pots are widely used within professional horticulture because they provide an efficient combination of low weight, consistent shape and economical high-volume production.
The reduced material weight makes large quantities easier to handle and transport through nursery operations, while the consistent pot format supports repeatable filling, potting and crop-spacing routines.
For growers producing plants by the thousand, these small efficiencies can become significant across an entire production programme.
Choosing growing media for a 9cm nursery pot
Select the growing medium according to the crop rather than the pot alone. Most young plant and bedding production requires a consistent professional substrate that provides an appropriate balance of air-filled porosity, moisture retention, nutrient availability and structural stability.
Because smaller and shallower containers contain less substrate than larger pots, moisture conditions can change relatively quickly. Irrigation frequency should therefore be based on crop demand, environmental conditions and actual substrate moisture rather than a fixed watering schedule.
Watering plants in low-profile pots
Low-profile containers require good irrigation management. Their smaller growing-media volume means they can respond quickly to warm temperatures, high light levels and vigorous plant growth.
Check moisture regularly and irrigate sufficiently to wet the root zone evenly while allowing excess water to drain. Avoid maintaining the substrate permanently saturated, as good root development depends on an appropriate balance between moisture and oxygen.
Commercial growers should adjust irrigation according to crop type, plant size, growing medium, weather and the production environment.
Designed for high-volume nursery production
With 22,752 pots on a full pallet, this Aeroplas format is clearly designed with commercial production in mind.
The combination of compact dimensions, lightweight thermoformed construction and high pallet density makes it suitable for nurseries producing large batches of uniform young plants or seasonal crops.
Standardising around a consistent pot format can also simplify growing-media calculations, potting operations, crop spacing, stock management and order planning.

One of the main advantages of a transparent orchid pot is the ability to assess what is happening below the surface of the growing medium.
Root condition can provide useful information about both plant health and moisture status. Rather than lifting an orchid from its pot to inspect the root system, growers can observe much of the root zone directly through the transparent container.
This is particularly useful with orchids such as Phalaenopsis, where visible roots can help growers judge changes in moisture and identify developing root problems earlier.
Specialist drainage for orchid growing
Modiform describes its orchid pot range as providing perfect drainage, with a specialist base designed to allow irrigation water to move freely away from the root zone.
This is important because many orchids are naturally adapted to highly aerated root environments and perform poorly when their roots remain continually saturated.
The pot should therefore be used with an appropriate free-draining orchid growing medium and an irrigation regime suited to the particular species, crop stage and growing environment.
Ideal for young orchids & specialist plants
The compact ORC9 is particularly useful for smaller orchids and plants progressing through earlier production stages. Its 345ml volume provides a controlled root environment without unnecessarily over-potting a young plant.
Typical applications include:
Pot size should always be selected according to the actual root mass rather than simply the size of the foliage. Orchids generally benefit from an appropriately sized container rather than excessive unused growing-media volume.
Choosing growing media for the ORC9
The ORC9 is designed to work with the open, free-draining substrates commonly used for orchids. Suitable media vary according to species and production system but may include appropriately graded orchid bark and other specialist components selected to maintain air around the roots.
Avoid treating an orchid pot like a conventional soil-filled plant pot. The physical structure of the growing medium is particularly important because orchid roots require an appropriate balance of moisture and aeration.
The transparent pot makes it considerably easier to observe the condition of both the roots and growing medium as irrigation practices are adjusted.
Using a transparent pot to manage watering
A clear orchid pot gives growers another useful indicator when deciding whether irrigation is required. Root appearance, visible moisture and the condition of the growing medium can all be considered alongside the weight of the pot and the requirements of the individual orchid.
Water thoroughly when required and allow excess water to drain freely. Avoid allowing the container to remain standing in water for prolonged periods unless this forms part of a specific production method appropriate to the crop.
Irrigation frequency will vary considerably with temperature, humidity, airflow, plant size and the type of growing medium used, so a fixed watering schedule is rarely appropriate.
Professional Modiform orchid production pot
The ORC9 is part of Modiform's specialist orchid container range, developed for efficient professional production rather than simply being a standard nursery pot manufactured in clear plastic.
Its combination of transparency, drainage and consistent dimensions makes it suitable for growers producing orchids in substantial numbers while still offering the visual benefits valued by specialist retailers and consumers.
With 41,080 pots per full pallet, the ORC9 is available in the quantities required for large-scale professional orchid production.

Modiform ORC9 9cm Orchid Pot FAQs
What is the actual size of the Modiform ORC9?
The ORC9 is sold as a nominal 9cm orchid pot. Modiform specifies an upper diameter of approximately 8.8cm, a height of approximately 8.4cm and a volume of 345ml. Why are transparent pots useful for orchids?
A transparent pot allows the roots and growing medium to be inspected without removing the plant from its container, making it easier to monitor root development and moisture conditions. Is the ORC9 designed specifically for orchids?
Yes. ORC9 is part of Modiform's specialist transparent orchid pot range and incorporates a base designed around the drainage requirements of orchid production. What volume does the ORC9 hold?
The Modiform ORC9 has a specified volume of 345cc, equivalent to 345ml or 0.345 litres. Is the ORC9 suitable for Phalaenopsis orchids?
It can be suitable for appropriately sized Phalaenopsis plants, particularly where the existing root mass suits the compact 345ml container. Select the pot according to root volume rather than foliage size alone. What growing medium should I use?
Use a specialist orchid substrate appropriate to the species and growing conditions. Many orchids require a relatively open, free-draining medium that maintains air around the roots. Can I monitor watering through the clear pot?
Yes. The transparent body allows growers to observe visible moisture, the growing medium and much of the root system, providing useful additional information when deciding whether irrigation is required. Can the ORC9 be placed inside a decorative orchid planter?
Yes, provided the outer planter is appropriately sized and does not cause water to remain around the base of the growing pot after irrigation. Is this only suitable for commercial growers?
No. Although designed for professional orchid production, the same transparency and drainage characteristics make it useful for specialist orchid growers and home enthusiasts. When should I move an orchid into a larger pot?
Repot when the root system, growing medium or plant condition indicates that additional space or fresh substrate is required. Avoid automatically moving orchids into oversized containers, as an appropriately sized root zone is generally preferable. Can the clear pot help identify unhealthy roots?
Yes. Visibility makes it easier to notice changes in root condition without disturbing the plant, although root appearance varies between orchid species and with moisture status. How many Modiform ORC9 pots are supplied on a pallet?
The current commercial pallet quantity for the ORC9 is 41,080 pots. Pallet quantities can change, so large-volume customers should confirm current packing information when ordering.

Why choose this 30L bucket with lid?
Large-capacity horticultural & general storage
The 30L capacity makes this bucket particularly useful in professional growing and nursery environments where materials are often purchased, mixed or handled in larger quantities.
Potential applications include:
Always ensure the bucket is appropriate for the material being stored. Food-contact suitability, chemical resistance and hazardous-material certification should not be assumed unless separately confirmed for the intended application.

The included lid makes the 30L bucket particularly useful for materials that need to remain contained between uses. Covering the contents helps reduce contamination from dust, dirt and general workplace debris.
This can be useful when storing dry horticultural materials such as fertilisers and substrate components, although products that are sensitive to moisture should always be stored according to their own manufacturer's instructions.
Useful around the nursery, garden & warehouse
A reusable lidded bucket is one of those simple pieces of equipment that can serve numerous purposes around a professional horticultural business.
The larger 30L capacity is useful for organising bulkier items, separating different materials or keeping frequently used products together. When appropriate, the bucket can be emptied, cleaned and returned to service for another suitable application.

Unit price perThe Modiform 3661 EURODAN is a professional thermoformed transport tray designed for 15 x 10.5cm pots. Measuring 56 x 31.5cm with a height of 5.7cm, it is configured at four trays per Danish trolley shelf for efficient commercial plant handling, transport and distribution.
Each tray provides 15 positions for compatible 10.5cm pots. With four trays arranged on a Danish trolley shelf, a fully populated shelf can accommodate up to 60 pots. This provides growers and nurseries with a predictable loading format for moving container-grown plants through production, order assembly and dispatch.
Modiform product code 3661 identifies this specific 15-pot configuration. The tray is manufactured from thermoformed PS and is supplied in Modiform's PRISTINE material specification, produced from 100% recycled polystyrene without dye additives.
Why choose the Modiform 3661 Transport Tray?
Efficient handling for 10.5cm nursery pots
When plants are produced and distributed commercially, grouping individual pots into a consistent transport format can significantly simplify handling. The Modiform 3661 organises 15 compatible 10.5cm pots into a single tray that can be moved through the nursery and supply chain as one unit.
This makes the tray suitable for plant movements between production areas as well as grading, order preparation, trolley loading, dispatch and receiving at the customer or retail site.
| Commercial growers | Groups 15 compatible 10.5cm pots into a practical handling unit. |
|---|---|
| Nurseries | Useful for moving batches of plants between production, grading, order preparation and dispatch. |
| Plant wholesalers | Provides a consistent tray format for organising plants during distribution. |
| Danish trolleys | Four trays fit per shelf, providing capacity for up to 60 compatible pots. |
| Garden centres | Convenient for receiving and handling batches of 10.5cm container-grown plants. |
Modiform EURODAN transport format
The Modiform 3661 uses the manufacturer's EURODAN transport format. Its 56 x 31.5cm external footprint is designed to provide an efficient arrangement on professional horticultural trolley systems.
Product code 3661 is important when specifying replacement trays or placing repeat orders because visually similar Modiform trays can have different pot counts, pot compatibility, tray depths and other technical configurations.
Matching the correct manufacturer code helps ensure the tray is suitable for the intended pots and existing nursery handling system.
60 pots per Danish trolley shelf
The 3661 is configured at four trays per Danish trolley shelf. Each tray carries 15 compatible pots, giving a total capacity of up to 60 x 10.5cm pots per shelf when all four trays are fully populated.
Known tray and pot quantities make it easier for commercial growers and plant wholesalers to calculate trolley requirements before an order is assembled. This can also help standardise plant movements between production, dispatch and distribution.
PRISTINE recycled PS construction
This version of the Modiform 3661 is supplied in the manufacturer's PRISTINE material specification. It is manufactured from 100% recycled polystyrene without dye additives.
The thermoformed construction creates defined positions for individual pots while maintaining the lightweight format required when trays are handled in significant quantities throughout a commercial nursery or distribution operation.
Modiform's use of recycled material in its transport tray programme helps reduce the requirement for virgin raw material while retaining a practical tray format for professional horticultural logistics.

Unit price perThe Modiform 1732 is a professional high shuttle tray designed to carry 18 compatible 9cm high pots. Measuring 56 x 31.5cm with an overall height of 9cm, it provides a practical handling and transport format for commercial growers, nurseries, plant wholesalers, distributors and garden centres.
The tray groups 18 individual 9cm high pots into a single handling unit, helping plants move efficiently through production, grading, order preparation, dispatch and distribution. Each pot remains in its own container while the formed tray positions keep the batch organised during handling.
Modiform product code 1732 identifies this specific high-format 18-pot shuttle tray. It is manufactured from thermoformed PS and supplied in Modiform's PRISTINE material specification, using 100% recycled polystyrene without dye additives.
Why choose the Modiform 1732 Shuttle Tray?
Efficient handling for 18 x 9cm high pots
Shuttle trays are widely used in professional horticulture because they allow individually potted plants to be handled in organised groups. The Modiform 1732 provides 18 positions for compatible 9cm high pots, allowing an entire batch to be lifted, moved and organised together.
This can simplify plant movement throughout a nursery or growing operation. Plants can remain in their individual pots while the tray provides a convenient handling format for moving batches between growing areas, grading stations, order assembly and dispatch.
| Commercial growers | Groups 18 compatible 9cm high pots into a practical handling unit. |
|---|---|
| Nurseries | Useful for moving batches between production areas, grading, order preparation and dispatch. |
| Plant wholesalers | Provides an organised format for moving smaller container-grown plants through distribution. |
| Order preparation | Individual plants remain in removable pots while being grouped together within the tray. |
| Garden centres | Convenient for receiving and handling batches of compatible 9cm high pots. |
Professional shuttle tray for individually potted plants
The Modiform 1732 is a shuttle tray rather than a multi-cell growing tray. Each position is designed to accommodate a separate compatible pot, so individual plants remain removable while the tray provides a convenient way to handle the complete group.
This is useful throughout commercial production and distribution because individual plants can still be removed for grading, selection, replacement, merchandising or sale without disturbing the remaining plants in the tray.
High format for compatible 9cm pots
The 1732 is the high-format version of this 18-pot Modiform shuttle tray. Its overall height is 9cm and it is designed for compatible 9cm high pots.
This distinction is important when selecting a shuttle tray. Two pots can share the same nominal top diameter while having different heights and profiles, so the correct tray should be matched to the specific pot being used.
Where a lower 9cm pot format is required, Modiform product code 1731 is the corresponding low-format shuttle tray. Checking the exact Modiform product reference helps prevent compatibility problems when ordering replacement trays.
PRISTINE recycled PS construction
This Modiform 1732 is supplied in the manufacturer's PRISTINE material specification. It is manufactured from 100% recycled polystyrene without dye additives.
The thermoformed construction creates the defined pot positions required to organise individual containers while retaining a lightweight format suitable for high-volume commercial horticultural handling.
Modiform's use of recycled raw material within its horticultural packaging programme reduces the requirement for virgin plastic while providing practical tray formats for professional plant production, transport and distribution.

Unit price perThe 1m x 1m Square Plastic Garden Tray provides a large, contained area for grouping pots, planters and propagation trays while helping to control water and keep growing areas tidy. With no drainage holes, it can be used as a large drip tray or for bottom watering suitable container-grown plants.
Its generous 100cm x 100cm footprint makes it particularly useful where several pots need to be managed together. Rather than placing individual saucers beneath multiple containers, the entire group can be positioned within one large tray.
The tray can be used in greenhouses, nurseries, propagation areas and other horticultural growing spaces. It is also useful beneath groups of pots where catching irrigation run-off and protecting the surrounding growing area are the main priorities.
Why choose the 1m x 1m Square Plastic Tray?
Ideal for bottom watering groups of plants
Because the tray is manufactured without drainage holes, it can be used for bottom watering suitable container-grown plants. Water is added to the tray and taken up through drainage holes in the individual plant pots.
Bottom watering can be particularly convenient where several plants need to be watered together. Instead of applying water separately to the surface of every pot, compatible containers can be grouped within the tray and allowed to absorb water from below.
The amount of water and the length of time pots are left standing in it should always be appropriate for the crop, container and growing medium. Excess water should not be left around plants that require free-draining conditions.
Contain irrigation run-off and spills
The tray is equally useful where its primary purpose is simply to catch drainage from pots. Water draining from several containers can be retained within the tray rather than spreading immediately across the surrounding floor or growing surface.
This makes a large tray particularly useful beneath groups of plants that are regularly hand watered. It can also make the growing area easier to organise by defining a clear space for container-grown plants and their associated irrigation run-off.
Suitable for nurseries, greenhouses & propagation areas
With a full square metre of tray area, this is a useful general-purpose piece of growing equipment for both professional and domestic horticulture.
| Nurseries | Useful for grouping batches of container-grown plants within a defined watering area. |
|---|---|

1m x 1m Square Plastic Tray FAQs
What size is this plastic tray?
The tray has a 1m x 1m footprint, providing approximately one square metre of space for pots, planters and smaller plant trays. Does the tray have drainage holes?
No. This tray is designed without drainage holes, allowing it to retain irrigation water and run-off. Can I use the tray for bottom watering?
Yes. Suitable pots with drainage holes can be placed within the tray and allowed to absorb water from below. Watering should always be adjusted to the requirements of the plants and growing medium. Can it be used underneath several plant pots?
Yes. Its large 1m x 1m area makes it particularly useful for grouping several pots together rather than using a separate saucer beneath every container. Will the tray catch water draining from pots?
Yes. With no drainage holes, it can collect water draining from containers and help prevent irrigation run-off spreading immediately across the surrounding growing area. Can I use propagation trays inside it?
Yes. The large square footprint can accommodate smaller propagation trays or groups of individual propagation pots, subject to their dimensions. Is this suitable for professional nursery use?
Yes. The tray is suitable for commercial growers and nurseries as well as greenhouse and general horticultural use. Should pots be left standing in water permanently?
Not necessarily. Watering should be managed according to the crop, growing medium and container. Plants that require freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excess water for prolonged periods. Is a larger version available?
Yes. A larger 1.2m x 1.2m Square Plastic Tray is also available for growing areas requiring additional tray space.

Unit price perThe 1.2m x 1.2m Square Plastic Garden Tray provides a generous contained area for grouping pots, planters and propagation trays while helping to manage watering and irrigation run-off. Manufactured without drainage holes, it can be used as a large drip tray or for bottom watering suitable container-grown plants.
At 120cm x 120cm, this is the larger of the two square tray sizes in the range and provides approximately 1.44m² of usable tray area. The extra space is particularly useful for larger groups of pots or where a substantial contained watering area is required.
Suitable for greenhouses, nurseries, propagation areas and general horticultural use, the tray provides a straightforward way to keep multiple containers together while helping to prevent irrigation water spreading immediately across the surrounding growing surface.
Why choose the 1.2m x 1.2m Square Plastic Tray?
Large tray for bottom watering
The absence of drainage holes means the tray can retain water for bottom watering suitable container-grown plants. Pots with drainage holes can be positioned within the tray and allowed to absorb moisture from below through capillary action within the growing medium.
With its large 1.2m x 1.2m footprint, several containers can be watered within the same area. This can be useful when managing groups of plants where watering each individual pot separately would be less convenient.
Water levels should always be managed according to the crop, container and growing medium being used. Plants requiring freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excess water for prolonged periods.
Contain irrigation run-off from multiple pots
The tray can also be used simply to collect water draining from pots and planters. Instead of allowing excess irrigation water to spread directly across the surrounding surface, run-off is retained within the tray.
This is particularly useful beneath groups of plants that are regularly hand watered. The large square footprint creates a defined plant area and can reduce the need for numerous individual pot saucers.
1.44m² of tray space
At 1.2m long by 1.2m wide, this tray provides approximately 1.44 square metres of surface area. This gives around 44% more tray area than the 1m x 1m version, making it the better option where additional pot capacity or watering space is required.
Before ordering, allow sufficient space around the tray for access and plant maintenance. The number of pots that can be accommodated will depend on their individual dimensions and the spacing required between plants.
Suitable for nurseries, greenhouses & propagation
| Nurseries | Useful for grouping larger batches of container-grown plants within a defined watering area. |

No. The tray is manufactured without drainage holes, allowing it to retain irrigation water and run-off. Can the tray be used for bottom watering?
Yes. Suitable pots with drainage holes can be positioned in the tray and allowed to absorb water from below. The amount of water should be appropriate for the plants and growing medium being used. How much larger is this than the 1m x 1m tray?
The 1.2m x 1.2m tray provides approximately 1.44m² of area, compared with 1m² for the smaller version. This gives approximately 44% more tray area. Can several plant pots be placed in the tray?
Yes. Its large footprint is particularly useful for grouping multiple pots together. The exact number will depend on the diameter of the pots and the spacing required between plants. Will it catch water draining from pots?
Yes. With no drainage holes, the tray can collect water draining from pots and help contain irrigation run-off within the growing area. Can propagation trays be placed inside it?
Yes. The large square footprint can accommodate multiple smaller propagation trays or groups of individual propagation pots, subject to their dimensions. Is this suitable for commercial nursery use?
Yes. Its large size makes it suitable for professional nurseries and greenhouse growing areas as well as general horticultural use. Should plants be left standing in water?
Only where appropriate for the crop and growing medium. Plants requiring freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excess water for prolonged periods. Is a smaller version available?
Yes. A 1m x 1m Square Plastic Tray is also available where a more compact footprint is required.

Unit price perThe Garland Value Square Garden Tray Black is a tough, injection-moulded tray designed for watering, potting and general plant-growing applications. Measuring 59 x 59cm with a generous 7cm depth and 25-litre internal capacity, it is particularly well suited to greenhouse staging and grouping multiple pots together.
Manufactured in the UK by Garland, the tray is made from recycled polypropylene. Its square footprint makes efficient use of greenhouse staging and growing areas, while the deeper 7cm sides provide greater capacity than Garland's standard-depth garden trays.
The tray can be used beneath pots and seed trays to catch drainage, as a contained area for watering plants from below, or as a practical work tray during potting and plant maintenance. Its combination of useful capacity and manageable dimensions makes it a versatile addition to both commercial and domestic growing areas.
Why choose the Garland Value Square Garden Tray?
Designed for greenhouse staging
Garland specifically sizes the Value Square Garden Tray for standard greenhouse staging. Its 59 x 59cm footprint provides a substantial growing area without requiring one of the much larger metre-square trays.
Multiple pots can be grouped within the tray so they can be managed as one growing area. This is useful for seedlings, young plants, herbs, ornamentals and other container-grown crops where keeping pots together makes watering and routine maintenance easier.
The square format can also make better use of rectangular staging and bench space than arranging numerous individual saucers beneath separate pots.
Watering, drainage collection & plant care
With a 25-litre internal capacity and 7cm depth, the Garland Value Square Garden Tray provides plenty of containment for everyday plant care.
It can be positioned beneath pots to collect water draining after irrigation, helping keep greenhouse benches and surrounding growing areas tidier. Suitable pots with drainage holes can also be watered from below by adding an appropriate amount of water to the tray and allowing the growing medium to absorb moisture through the base of the containers.
The tray is equally useful during potting and maintenance work, providing a defined working area that can help contain loose growing media, water and general debris.
Tough injection-moulded recycled polypropylene
The Value Square Garden Tray is injection moulded from recycled polypropylene. Garland describes its garden trays as tough and durable, with construction intended to provide years of service under normal use.
Garland manufactures its plastic growing products in the UK using recycled material, and the polypropylene used for this tray is also recyclable. This provides a practical option for growers looking for durable horticultural equipment manufactured with recycled plastic.

Unit price perThe Garland 60cm Square Garden Tray Black is a deep, versatile tray measuring 60 x 60 x 12cm with an internal capacity of 32 litres. Manufactured in the UK from recycled polypropylene, it provides a substantial contained area for plant watering, potting, growing-media preparation and general greenhouse or nursery work.
Its 60cm square footprint and 12cm depth make this a particularly useful middle ground between a conventional shallow garden tray and Garland's larger deep trays. Multiple pots can be grouped together for watering, while the higher sides provide useful containment for irrigation run-off and loose growing media.
Garland also designs the tray for broader practical applications, including mixing and spill containment. For horticultural users, however, its combination of a square footprint, generous depth and tough injection-moulded construction makes it especially useful around greenhouses, nurseries, potting areas and propagation spaces.
Why choose the Garland 60cm Square Garden Tray?
Deep tray for plant watering & drainage
With a 32-litre capacity, the Garland 60cm Square Tray is particularly useful where more water containment is required than a conventional shallow plant tray can provide.
Multiple plant pots can be positioned inside the tray so that drainage water is collected in one place. This can help keep greenhouse benches, floors and other growing surfaces tidier while reducing the need for separate saucers beneath every container.
Suitable pots with drainage holes can also be watered from below. Water added to the tray can be absorbed through the base of the pots and distributed through the growing medium. Water levels and soaking periods should always be appropriate for the crop, container and substrate being used.
Useful for potting & growing-media preparation
The combination of a 60cm square working area and 12cm high sides makes the tray useful for potting and repotting plants. Loose compost and growing media can be contained within the tray rather than spreading across the surrounding bench or floor.
This also makes the tray suitable for preparing smaller batches of growing media. Substrate components can be handled within the tray and the high sides help keep material contained during mixing.
For commercial growers and nurseries, a deep multi-purpose tray can be useful for a range of routine jobs including potting, plant maintenance, watering and preparation work.
Versatile around the greenhouse, nursery & garden
| Plant watering | Provides a contained area for grouping and watering compatible pots. |
|---|---|
| Bottom watering | Suitable pots can take up water through their drainage holes from the tray below. |

Unit price perThe Garland 1.2 Metre Square Garden Tray Black is an exceptionally large, deep horticultural tray measuring 120 x 120 x 12cm with an internal capacity of 144 litres. It is the largest tray in Garland's range and provides a substantial contained area for plant watering, large groups of pots, irrigation run-off and a wide variety of professional growing applications.
With a footprint of 1.44m², the tray provides considerably more usable growing area than conventional plant trays. Its generous 12cm depth also gives it the capacity to handle larger volumes of water, making it particularly useful in nurseries, greenhouses and other growing areas where multiple plants need to be managed together.
Manufactured in the UK by Garland from recycled polypropylene, the tray combines a large working area with tough injection-moulded construction. Its size also makes it suitable as a base for larger growing systems or as a general-purpose containment tray where a substantial waterproof working area is required.
Why choose the Garland 1.2 Metre Square Tray?
A substantial 1.44m² growing area
At 1.2m long by 1.2m wide, this Garland tray provides approximately 1.44 square metres of usable tray area. This makes it particularly useful when numerous plant pots need to be grouped together rather than placed in separate individual saucers.
The square format can be used to create a defined watering area within a greenhouse, nursery or propagation space. The exact number of pots accommodated will depend on container diameter and the spacing required between plants.
Its substantial dimensions should be considered before installation. The tray should be positioned on a suitable level and adequately supported surface, particularly when it will contain water or a large number of plants.
Large-scale bottom watering & irrigation management
The Garland 1.2 Metre Square Tray can provide a convenient central watering area for multiple container-grown plants. Suitable pots with drainage holes can be positioned within the tray and allowed to absorb water from below.
This can simplify watering when working with larger groups of plants. Rather than watering every pot individually from above, an appropriate level of water can be introduced into the tray for compatible pots and growing media to take up as required.
Water levels should always be managed according to the crop, container and growing medium. Plants requiring freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excess water for prolonged periods.
Contain irrigation run-off from multiple plants
The combination of a 120 x 120cm footprint and 12cm high sides also makes the tray useful for collecting drainage and irrigation run-off from groups of plants.
Keeping run-off within a defined tray can help keep surrounding greenhouse or nursery surfaces tidier and provides a more organised alternative to using numerous individual saucers.
Its 144-litre internal capacity provides considerable containment, although the tray should not be overfilled and the weight of water must always be considered when selecting the supporting surface.
Designed for large growing areas
| Commercial nurseries | Provides a large contained area for grouping and watering multiple container-grown plants. |
|---|---|
| Greenhouses | Useful where a substantial central plant watering and drainage area is required. |
| Bottom watering | Compatible pots can absorb water through drainage holes in their bases. |
| Irrigation run-off | Large footprint and deep sides help contain drainage from multiple pots. |
| Propagation areas | Can accommodate multiple smaller pots or propagation trays within one contained area. |
| General horticulture | Useful wherever an extra-large, deep and contained working tray is required. |

Unit price perThe Garland Metre Square Tray Black is a huge, deep-sided horticultural tray measuring 100 x 100 x 12cm with an impressive 100-litre internal capacity. One of the largest trays in Garland's range, it provides a substantial contained area for plant irrigation, groups of pots, drainage collection and a wide variety of commercial growing applications.
The combination of a full 1m² footprint and 12cm depth makes this significantly more substantial than a conventional garden tray. It is particularly useful for growers who need to manage larger groups of container-grown plants within one watering or drainage area.
The internal base incorporates a series of shallow horizontal ridges designed to aid drainage from plant pots. Manufactured from tough injection-moulded recycled polypropylene, the tray is suitable for repeated use in nurseries, greenhouses, garden centres and other professional growing environments.
Why choose the Garland Metre Square Tray?
Large-scale plant watering & irrigation
With a full square metre of growing area, the Garland Metre Square Tray can accommodate a substantial group of pots within a single contained space. This makes it particularly useful for nursery production, greenhouse growing and garden centre plant displays.
Suitable pots with drainage holes can be watered from below by introducing an appropriate amount of water into the tray. Water can then be absorbed through the base of the containers and into the growing medium.
Alternatively, the tray can simply collect irrigation run-off from pots watered from above. Its 12cm depth and 100-litre capacity provide significantly more containment than a shallow plant tray.
Water levels should always be managed according to the crop, container and growing medium. Plants requiring freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excess water for prolonged periods.
Ridged internal base to aid pot drainage
Garland moulds a series of shallow horizontal ridges into the internal base of the Metre Square Tray. These ridges are designed to aid drainage from plant pots positioned within the tray.
Raising portions of the pot base slightly from the lowest surface of the tray gives drainage water space to move underneath the containers. This is a useful feature when the tray is used for groups of plants in commercial growing and display areas.
1m² footprint with 100-litre capacity
At 100cm long x 100cm wide x 12cm high, this is a genuinely large horticultural tray. The square footprint provides exactly 1m² of area, making it straightforward to plan into nursery, greenhouse and growing-area layouts.
Its 100-litre internal capacity gives growers considerably greater containment than Garland's shallower Value 1 Metre Square Tray, which is only 5cm deep.
When using a tray of this size, it should be positioned on a suitably level and adequately supported surface. The combined weight of the tray, plants and water can become substantial during use.
Professional & general-purpose applications
Although particularly useful for horticulture, Garland designed the Metre Square Tray as a versatile large-capacity containment tray with a range of possible applications.
| Commercial nurseries | Provides a large contained area for groups of container-grown plants. |
|---|---|
| Greenhouses | Useful for plant watering, drainage collection and organising larger groups of pots. |
| Garden centres | Suitable for creating contained plant irrigation and display areas. |
| Bottom watering | Compatible pots can absorb water through drainage holes in their bases. |
| Irrigation run-off | 12cm deep sides provide substantial containment for water draining from pots. |
| General containment | Large, deep tray format can be used wherever a substantial contained working area is required. |
Tough recycled polypropylene construction
Garland manufactures its large garden trays from tough injection-moulded polypropylene. This robust construction is intended for repeated use, with Garland stating that its trays should provide years of service under normal conditions.
The Metre Square Tray is made from 100% recycled plastic, and the polypropylene material is also recyclable. Garland manufactures its plastic growing products in the UK.

Unit price perThe Garland Giant Garden Tray Black is a large 110 x 55cm irrigation tray designed for efficiently watering groups of container-grown plants. With a 25-litre internal capacity, a ridged base and a width designed to fit most greenhouse staging, it is a practical choice for nurseries, greenhouses and other professional growing areas.
Rather than relying on individual saucers beneath every container, multiple pots can be positioned together inside the Giant Tray. Water can then be introduced into the tray for bottom watering, or the tray can be used to collect irrigation run-off from plants watered from above.
The tray can also be used with grit or capillary matting where preferred, giving growers several options for managing moisture around container-grown plants. Manufactured from recycled polypropylene, its tough injection-moulded construction is designed for repeated use.
Why choose the Garland Giant Garden Tray?
A large irrigation tray for container-grown plants
Garland designed the Giant Garden Tray as a large irrigation table for groups of potted plants. Its 110 x 55cm footprint allows numerous compatible pots to be positioned together and managed within a single contained watering area.
For bottom watering, an appropriate depth of water can be introduced into the tray. Pots with suitable drainage holes can then absorb moisture through their bases and into the growing medium.
This approach can be particularly useful in nurseries and greenhouses where a number of similar container-grown plants require watering at the same time. Watering requirements will still vary according to crop, pot size, growing medium and environmental conditions.
Compatible with grit & capillary matting
The Garland Giant Tray does not have to be used simply as an open water reservoir. Garland also recommends that it can be filled with grit or used with capillary matting if preferred.
Capillary matting can help distribute moisture beneath compatible plant pots, while grit can provide a useful moist surface beneath containers. These methods can be particularly useful where growers want a more gradual approach to water availability than simply standing pots directly in deeper water.
Ridged base to aid drainage
A series of shallow horizontal ridges is moulded into the internal base of the Giant Garden Tray. These ridges help aid drainage beneath plant pots and provide channels through which water can move across the tray.
The tray can therefore be used both for supplying water from below and for collecting drainage from plants irrigated from above. Plants that require freely drained root conditions should not be left standing in excessive water for prolonged periods.
Ideal for greenhouse & nursery growing
| Greenhouse staging | The 55cm width is designed to fit comfortably on most greenhouse staging. |
|---|---|
| Nursery production | Useful for grouping and watering multiple container-grown plants within one tray. |
| Bottom watering | Compatible pots can absorb an appropriate amount of water through drainage holes in their bases. |
| Capillary watering | The tray can be used with suitable capillary matting for moisture distribution beneath pots. |
| Grit trays | Garland also recommends filling the tray with grit where this watering method is preferred. |
| Run-off collection | Provides a large contained area for collecting water draining from groups of pots. |
Tough recycled polypropylene construction
The Garland Giant Garden Tray is made from recycled polypropylene using tough injection-moulded construction. Garland designs its trays for repeated use, making the Giant suitable for regular watering and plant-management tasks in professional and domestic growing environments.

Unit price perThe Danish Irrigation Tray Grey 1100mm x 635mm is a professional cultivation tray designed for bottom watering, irrigation run-off collection and integration into plant watering systems. Its 1100 x 635mm footprint provides a practical growing area for groups of pots and containers at either ground or table height.
The moulded tray incorporates a channelled base that directs water towards the drainage point, making it suitable for both supplying water to plants from below and collecting excess irrigation solution. It can be incorporated into a suitable drainage arrangement where run-off needs to be directed away from the growing area.
Manufactured from HIPS plastic, these Danish-style irrigation trays are designed for repeated use in growing environments. The 1100 x 635mm model sits between the narrow 1100 x 330mm tray and the larger 1100 x 1000mm version, making it a useful mid-width option for professional nursery and greenhouse layouts.
Why choose a Danish Irrigation Tray?
Bottom watering for groups of plants
Danish irrigation trays provide a practical way of watering multiple container-grown plants from below. Suitable pots with drainage holes can be positioned on the tray and supplied with an appropriate amount of water or nutrient solution.
Moisture is then taken up through the bottom of the containers into the growing medium. For nurseries and larger growing areas, this can provide a more organised approach than individually watering every container.
The amount and duration of watering should always be matched to the crop, container size and growing medium. The tray itself provides the irrigation platform, allowing the grower to configure the wider watering and drainage system to suit the application.
Designed for irrigation & drainage systems
The internal surface is formed with a network of channels that helps move water across the tray towards the drainage area. This is useful both when supplying water to the tray and when collecting run-off from top-fed plants.
In a suitable installation, collected run-off can be directed to a reservoir or waste drainage arrangement. This makes the tray suitable for both simple manual watering setups and more developed irrigation systems.
Any pipework, fittings, reservoirs, pumps or drainage components required for a particular installation should be selected separately according to the intended system.
For nurseries, greenhouses & professional growing
The rectangular 1100 x 635mm format is particularly useful where several pots need to be organised within one irrigation zone. Containers can be arranged across the tray while water and drainage are managed through a common surface.
This can make the tray useful for young plants, propagation, herbs, ornamentals and other container-grown crops, provided the watering regime is appropriate for the plants being grown.
At approximately 0.70m², this size provides substantially more growing area than the narrow 1100 x 330mm model without requiring the full footprint of the 1100 x 1000mm tray.
Typical Danish irrigation tray applications
| Bottom watering | Suitable containers can take up water or nutrient solution through drainage holes in their bases. |
|---|---|
| Top-fed irrigation | The tray can collect drainage and run-off from pots irrigated individually from above. |
| Nursery production | Provides a common watering and drainage area for groups of container-grown plants. |
| Propagation | Useful as part of a suitable watering arrangement for young plants and propagation containers. |
| Greenhouse benches | Can be installed at table height where a suitable supporting structure is provided. |

Unit price perThe Danish Irrigation Tray Grey 1100mm x 330mm is a narrow rectangular cultivation tray designed for bottom watering, irrigation and drainage management around container-grown plants. Its slim 33cm width makes it particularly useful where growing space is restricted or a long, narrow irrigation area is required.
Suitable for use at ground level or on an appropriately supported bench, the tray provides a common surface beneath multiple pots and containers. Plants can be watered from below, or the tray can collect excess irrigation solution draining from containers watered from above.
The moulded internal channels help water move across the tray towards the drainage point, allowing the tray to be incorporated into a suitable watering and drainage system. At 1100mm long and just 330mm wide, this is the narrowest format in the four-size Danish Irrigation Tray range.
Why choose the 1100mm x 330mm Danish Irrigation Tray?
Narrow irrigation tray for efficient use of space
The key advantage of this Danish tray is its 1100 x 330mm footprint. At only 33cm wide, it can be positioned in areas where the wider Danish trays would occupy too much space.
This makes it particularly useful for arranging plants in a single row or compact grouping. It can also suit narrow benches, perimeter growing areas and other layouts where maintaining access around the crop is important.
The tray provides approximately 0.36m² of surface area, allowing growers to create a relatively long irrigation zone without requiring a large overall footprint.
Bottom watering for container-grown plants
Suitable pots with drainage holes can be positioned on the tray and watered from below. Water or nutrient solution introduced into the tray can then be absorbed through the bottom of the containers and into the growing medium.
Bottom watering can be particularly useful when managing groups of similar plants because several containers can be supplied from the same irrigation area. The appropriate amount of water and watering duration will depend on the crop, container size and growing medium.
The tray can also be used in the opposite way, collecting drainage from plants that are irrigated individually from above.
Channelled base for water management
The tray has a moulded channelled internal surface. These channels help water move across the tray towards the drainage point rather than relying on a completely flat base.
Where required, the drainage point can be incorporated into a suitable run-off or recirculation arrangement. This allows collected irrigation solution to be directed away from the tray according to the design of the wider growing system.
Pumps, reservoirs, pipework and any additional irrigation or drainage fittings required for a particular installation should be selected separately to suit the system.
Suitable for professional growing areas
| Bottom watering | Provides a common watering surface beneath compatible pots and containers. |
|---|---|
| Run-off collection | Collects drainage from plants irrigated individually from above. |
| Narrow benches | The 330mm width is useful where available bench depth is limited. |

Unit price perThe Modiform 1413 PRISTINE Propagation Tray is a professional 240-cell plug tray designed for high-density seed propagation and early-stage young plant production. Featuring 240 individual cells with a volume of 7.5cc each, it provides an efficient solution for commercial nurseries and growers looking to maximise propagation capacity within a limited growing area.
Measuring 49cm long x 29cm wide x 3cm high, the Modiform 1413 combines a compact professional tray footprint with a regular 12 x 20 cell arrangement. Each cell provides a separate growing position for a seedling or young plant, allowing growers to establish large batches before transplanting into larger propagation cells or pots.
Manufactured from thermoformed polystyrene (PS), the tray incorporates 7mm bottom drainage holes to help manage excess irrigation water. Its PRISTINE designation identifies Modiform's undyed recycled material concept, which avoids adding colour solely to achieve a uniform cosmetic finish.
The 1413 is particularly suited to professional propagation programmes where efficient use of greenhouse bench space, consistent plant spacing and straightforward batch handling are important.
Why choose the Modiform 1413 Propagation Tray?
High-density propagation with 240 individual cells
The Modiform 1413 is designed for growers who need to establish large numbers of plants efficiently during the earliest stages of production.
Its 240 cells are arranged in 12 rows of 20, providing a consistent layout across the tray. This makes it straightforward to organise seed sowing, monitor germination and manage young plants as a complete production batch.
Modiform specifies a planting density of approximately 1,689 cells per square metre for this format. This is particularly useful when planning propagation capacity in commercial greenhouses and nurseries where heated bench space can be valuable.
The high cell count makes the 1413 most appropriate for crops that can be established in small propagation volumes before being transplanted into a larger growing format.
7.5cc cells for early-stage root development
Each cell provides approximately 7.5cc (7.5ml) of growing volume. This compact volume is intended for the early development of seedlings and small plugs rather than extended production of established plants.
Small propagation cells allow growers to raise a high number of plants within a relatively small area. However, the limited growing-medium volume means that irrigation, nutrition and transplant timing require careful management.
Once the developing root system has sufficiently established within the plug, plants can be moved into larger cells, pots or other suitable growing containers.
The ideal transplanting stage depends on the crop species, root development, growing medium and intended production programme.
7mm bottom drainage holes
Each propagation cell incorporates a 7mm bottom drainage opening, providing a route for excess water to leave the growing medium.
This is particularly important in small-cell propagation, where maintaining the correct balance between moisture and aeration is essential for healthy root development.
The tray can be used with an appropriate professional nursery irrigation arrangement. Watering frequency and application volume should be adjusted according to the substrate, crop requirements and environmental conditions.
Growers should avoid allowing small plugs to dry excessively while also ensuring that the growing medium does not remain unnecessarily saturated.
Choosing between 240-cell and 360-cell propagation trays
Modiform produces several high-density propagation trays, including the 1413 with 240 cells and the 1426 with 360 cells.
Although both models share a 49 x 29cm footprint, they provide different growing volumes:
| Specification | Modiform 1413 | Modiform 1426 |
|---|---|---|
| Number of cells | 240 | 360 |
| Cell volume | 7.5cc | 5cc |
| Tray height | 3cm | 2.4cm |
| Bottom drainage hole | 7mm | 6mm |
| Cells per m² | 1,689 | 2,533 |
The Modiform 1413 provides 50% more growing volume per cell than the 1426, while the 1426 accommodates 50% more plants per tray.
The most appropriate option depends on whether the priority is maximum plant density or providing additional substrate volume to each developing plug.
Modiform PRISTINE material concept
The Modiform 1413 is supplied in the manufacturer's PRISTINE format.
PRISTINE products are produced without adding colour dye purely to achieve a uniform appearance. Instead, the recycled raw material determines the finished colour of the tray.
As a result, some natural colour variation may occur between production batches. This is a characteristic of the PRISTINE material concept rather than a manufacturing defect.
Modiform's approach forms part of its wider work towards more resource-conscious horticultural packaging and growing products.

Unit price perThe Garland XL Seed Tray Black with Holes is a generously sized propagation and growing tray measuring 58 x 40.5 x 7cm. Its perforated base allows excess water to drain freely, making it ideal for seed sowing, raising young plants and holding pots or propagation containers where reliable drainage is required.
Larger than a conventional seed tray, the XL format provides approximately 0.23m² of growing area. This makes it a practical choice for gardeners, nurseries and professional growers who want to manage a larger batch of seedlings, pots or young plants within a single tray.
The numerous drainage holes across the base distinguish this model from Garland's solid-base garden trays. Water can pass through rather than being retained inside the tray, making the XL Seed Tray particularly useful for free-draining propagation and general growing applications.
Why choose the Garland XL Seed Tray?
Perforated base for free drainage
This version of the Garland XL Seed Tray features multiple drainage holes distributed across the base. These allow excess water to pass out of the tray rather than collecting around the growing medium or pots.
Good drainage is particularly useful during propagation, where maintaining an appropriate balance of moisture and air within the growing medium is important. The perforated design also makes the tray useful for holding individual pots or other propagation containers that need to drain after watering.
Because the tray is perforated, it should be placed on a suitable free-draining surface or paired with an appropriate solid tray underneath if water collection is required indoors or on protected benches.
More than just a seed tray
The generous dimensions of the Garland XL Seed Tray make it suitable for a wide range of propagation and plant-handling jobs. It can be filled with a suitable growing medium for direct sowing where appropriate, or used as a carrier tray for smaller pots and containers.
Its large footprint is particularly convenient when working with batches of plants. Instead of moving numerous small pots individually, compatible pots can be grouped together and handled within the tray.
For greenhouse and nursery use, this can help keep benches organised while providing a defined growing area for each batch or variety.
Compatible with the Garland X Large High Dome Propagator Lid
The XL Seed Tray is compatible with the Garland X Large High Dome Propagator Lid (GA0019). Pairing the tray with the matching lid creates a large propagation environment for raising seedlings and young plants.
The high-dome format is particularly useful where additional headroom is needed as young plants develop. The lid is available separately, allowing growers to use the tray either as an open growing tray or as part of a larger propagation setup.
Seed tray with holes or solid garden tray?
Garland produces trays for different watering and growing requirements. This XL Seed Tray has drainage holes and is the appropriate choice when excess water needs to escape freely.
A solid-base garden tray serves a different purpose, retaining water and containing run-off rather than allowing it to drain away. Solid trays are therefore more appropriate for applications such as water collection, bottom watering or protecting surfaces from irrigation run-off.
Choosing between the two depends primarily on whether you need free drainage or water retention.
Typical applications
| Seed propagation | Large surface area provides plenty of room for raising batches of seedlings. |
|---|---|
| Young plants | Useful for organising and handling young plants during early production stages. |
| Pot carrier tray | Can hold compatible individual pots while allowing irrigation water to drain through the perforated base. |
| Greenhouse growing | Generous dimensions provide a practical growing area for greenhouse benches and propagation spaces. |
| Propagator base | Compatible with the Garland X Large High Dome Propagator Lid for covered propagation. |

Unit price perThe Garland Standard Seed Tray Green with Holes is a practical propagation tray for seed sowing, raising seedlings and growing young plants. Measuring 37.5 x 23 x 6cm, its perforated base allows excess irrigation water to drain away while the 6cm depth provides useful space for propagation compost and developing roots.
This classic Garland seed tray is a versatile choice for greenhouse, nursery and 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 tray designed to retain water, this version incorporates multiple drainage holes across the base. These provide an escape route for excess water, helping growers manage moisture levels during germination and early plant development.
Why choose the Garland Standard Seed Tray?
Drainage holes for healthier moisture management
The base of the tray contains numerous drainage holes, allowing excess water to move out of the growing medium rather than remaining trapped at the bottom of the tray.
This is particularly useful when raising seedlings, where moisture needs to be carefully controlled. The growing medium should remain appropriately moist for the crop without being unnecessarily saturated for prolonged periods.
When the tray is being used indoors or on a surface that needs protection from water, place it over a suitable solid tray or drainage surface. This perforated version is designed to let water pass through rather than contain it.
Ideal for seed sowing & young plant propagation
At 6cm deep, the Garland Standard Seed Tray provides a useful volume for conventional seed sowing. It can be filled with an appropriate seed compost or propagation substrate, levelled and sown according to the requirements of the plant being raised.
Once seedlings have developed sufficiently, they can be pricked out or transplanted into individual cells or pots. The exact timing will depend on the crop, root development and growing conditions.
The tray can also be used as a convenient carrier for compatible small pots. This allows batches of young plants to be organised and moved together while excess irrigation water drains through the perforated base.
Compatible with Garland propagator lids
One of the advantages of Garland's standard seed tray format is its compatibility with several matching propagator lids. This allows the same tray to be configured for different propagation requirements.
| Garland Large Budget Propagator Lid | Product code GA0014 |
|---|---|
| Garland Large Budget Vented Propagator Lid | Product code GA0015 |
| Garland Large High Dome Propagator Lid | Product code GA0018 |
| Garland Large High Dome Propagator with Holes Lid | Product code GA0020 |
The compatible lids are available separately. This means the seed tray can be used on its own as an open propagation tray or combined with an appropriate lid to create a covered propagator.
Useful throughout the propagation area
Although primarily designed as a seed tray, its simple open format makes it useful for a variety of everyday nursery and greenhouse jobs.
| Seed sowing | Fill with an appropriate propagation medium for conventional seed sowing. |
|---|---|
| Seedling production | Provides a contained growing area for seedlings before they are transplanted or potted on. |
| Young plants | Useful for organising compatible young plants and small pots during early production. |
| Covered propagation | Can be combined with compatible Garland propagator lids to create a covered growing environment. |

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?
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.

Manufactured in the UK by Garland Products, this traditional green seed tray provides a convenient growing area for gardeners and professional growers who need a smaller alternative to a standard seed tray. Its compact footprint makes it particularly useful when propagating small batches of plants, trialling different varieties or working with limited bench space.
The perforated base allows excess irrigation water to escape, helping growers maintain an appropriate balance of moisture and aeration within the growing medium. The tray can be used for direct seed sowing or for holding compatible small pots and propagation containers.
Manufactured using 100% recycled and recyclable plastic, the Garland Small Seed Tray is part of the manufacturer's premium propagation range and provides a reusable alternative to disposable growing containers.
Why choose the Garland Small Seed Tray?
Compact seed propagation for smaller growing areas
The Garland Small Seed Tray is particularly useful where a full-sized seed tray would be unnecessarily large. Its 23 x 17cm footprint provides enough space for small batches of seedlings while remaining easy to position on greenhouse shelves, propagation benches and indoor growing areas.
The tray can be filled directly with a suitable seed or propagation compost. Once the surface has been prepared, seeds can be sown according to their individual requirements for depth, spacing, temperature and moisture.
As seedlings develop, they can be pricked out or transplanted into larger propagation cells or pots when appropriate. The correct timing will depend on the crop and the development of its root system.
For professional nurseries, the compact format is also useful for smaller propagation batches, variety trials and situations where different crops need to be kept separate during establishment.
Drainage holes for effective moisture management
The base of the Garland Small Seed Tray features multiple drainage holes, providing an escape route for excess irrigation water.
Good moisture management is particularly important during germination and early root development. Growing media should provide sufficient moisture for the crop while retaining the air spaces needed for healthy root function.
The drainage holes help prevent water from being trapped in the bottom of the tray. However, watering frequency should still be adjusted according to the growing medium, plant species, temperature and environmental conditions.
Important: This is the version with drainage holes. Water will pass through the base, so use a suitable solid collection tray underneath when protecting windowsills, benches or indoor surfaces.
Compatible with Garland propagator lids
The Garland Small Seed Tray can be combined with compatible Garland propagator lids to create a covered propagation environment.
Two suitable options are available:

As seedlings develop, they can be pricked out or transplanted into larger propagation cells or pots when appropriate. The correct timing will depend on the crop and the development of its root system.
For professional nurseries, the compact format is also useful for smaller propagation batches, variety trials and situations where different crops need to be kept separate during establishment.
Drainage holes for effective moisture management
The base of the Garland Small Seed Tray features multiple drainage holes, providing an escape route for excess irrigation water.
Good moisture management is particularly important during germination and early root development. Growing media should provide sufficient moisture for the crop while retaining the air spaces needed for healthy root function.
The drainage holes help prevent water from being trapped in the bottom of the tray. However, watering frequency should still be adjusted according to the growing medium, plant species, temperature and environmental conditions.
Important: This is the version with drainage holes. Water will pass through the base, so use a suitable solid collection tray underneath when protecting windowsills, benches or indoor surfaces.
Compatible with Garland propagator lids
The Garland Small Seed Tray can be combined with compatible Garland propagator lids to create a covered propagation environment.
Two suitable options are available:
| Compatible propagator lid | Product reference |
|---|---|
| Garland Small Budget Propagator Lid | Garland G142 / GA0013 |
| Garland Small High Dome Propagator Lid | Garland G138 / GA0017 |
The Small Budget Lid provides a compact covered propagation option, while the Small High Dome Lid offers additional headroom for developing seedlings and young plants.
The high-dome lid features an adjustable dial ventilator, allowing growers to manage ventilation and humidity within the propagator. This can be particularly useful as seedlings develop and their environmental requirements change.
Compatible lids are available separately and are not included with this tray.
UK manufactured using recycled plastic
Garland Products manufactures its plastic growing products in the UK, with an emphasis on recycled and recyclable materials.
The Small Seed Tray Black with Holes is manufactured using 100% recycled plastic and is also recyclable, providing a practical option for growers seeking reusable propagation equipment.
The tray belongs to Garland's premium propagation range, which is designed to provide a more substantial, longer-lasting alternative to lightweight disposable propagation products.
As with any reusable growing container, trays should be cleaned between propagation cycles using an appropriate horticultural hygiene procedure to reduce the risk of transferring pests or plant diseases between crops.
Typical applications
| Seed sowing | Suitable for sowing small batches of vegetable, herb, flower and ornamental seeds. |
|---|---|
| Seedling production | Provides a compact growing area for young plants before transplanting or potting on. |
| Greenhouse propagation | Useful for organising smaller batches of plants on greenhouse shelves and propagation benches. |
| Indoor propagation | Compact dimensions make it suitable for windowsills and indoor propagation areas when used with appropriate drainage protection. |
| Covered propagation | Compatible with Garland Small Budget and Small High Dome Propagator Lids. |

Small Seed Tray or Mini Garden Tray?
Garland also manufactures the Mini Garden Tray, which shares the same 23 x 17 x 6cm dimensions but has a solid base without drainage holes.
The Small Seed Tray with Holes is designed for free-draining propagation, allowing excess irrigation water to escape.
The Mini Garden Tray without Holes is better suited to collecting water, bottom watering compatible pots and protecting surfaces from irrigation run-off.
Choosing between the two depends on whether free drainage or water retention is required.

Unit price perThe Garland Mini Seed Tray Black with Holes is a compact propagation tray designed for seed sowing, germination and raising small batches of seedlings. Measuring just 17 x 10 x 5cm, it provides a convenient solution for windowsills, greenhouse shelves, propagation benches and other growing areas where space is limited.
The mini format is particularly useful when only a small number of plants are required, allowing different crops or varieties to be propagated separately without using a full-sized seed tray. Despite its compact dimensions, the 5cm depth provides useful space for propagation compost and developing young roots.
Integrated drainage holes in the base allow excess irrigation water to escape rather than remaining trapped beneath the growing medium. The tray can be used independently for open propagation or combined with the compatible Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid (GA0016) to create a compact covered propagator.
Why choose the Garland Mini Seed Tray?
Ideal for small-scale seed propagation
Large seed trays are useful for substantial sowings, but they can be inefficient when only a few plants of a particular variety are required. The Garland Mini Seed Tray provides a much smaller growing area, making it easier to divide propagation work into manageable batches.
The tray can be filled directly with a suitable propagation medium and used for sowing compatible vegetable, herb, flower and ornamental seeds. Seeds should be sown at the appropriate depth and spacing for the species being grown.
Its compact format also makes it useful for germination trials and staggered sowing. Several mini trays can be used independently, allowing different varieties or sowing dates to be kept separate rather than sharing one larger tray.
Once seedlings have developed sufficiently, they can be pricked out or transplanted into larger cells or pots according to their individual growing requirements.
Perforated base for effective drainage
The Garland Mini Seed Tray features drainage holes in its base, allowing excess irrigation water to move out of the growing medium.
Effective moisture management is particularly important during germination and early plant development. Growing media need sufficient moisture to support germination and growth while retaining adequate air spaces around developing roots.
The perforated base provides an escape route for excess water, helping growers manage moisture within the tray. Watering frequency and volume should still be adjusted according to the crop, growing medium, temperature and surrounding growing conditions.
This is a perforated tray rather than a water-retaining tray. If it is being used on a windowsill, worktop or other surface that needs protection, place a suitable solid tray underneath to collect drainage water.
Compatible with the Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid
The Mini Seed Tray is compatible with the Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid (GA0016), allowing the tray to form the base of a compact covered propagator.
A covered propagator can help retain humidity around seeds and young seedlings during establishment. The high-dome format provides additional vertical space as seedlings begin to develop above the growing medium.
The tray can also be used without a lid when open propagation is preferred, giving growers the flexibility to adapt the setup to different crops and stages of plant development.
The Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid is available separately and is not included with this seed tray.
Useful for growers, nurseries & home propagation
The Mini Seed Tray is suitable for far more than simply saving windowsill space. Its compact dimensions make it useful wherever growers need to organise propagation into smaller individual batches.
| Seed sowing | Suitable for starting small quantities of compatible vegetable, herb, flower and ornamental seeds. |
|---|---|
| Windowsill propagation | Compact dimensions make the tray easy to position in smaller indoor growing areas when suitable drainage protection is used. |
| Greenhouse propagation | Useful for organising small batches of seedlings across greenhouse shelving and propagation benches. |
| Variety trials | Different varieties can be kept in separate mini trays for easier identification and management. |
| Staggered sowing | Useful for keeping successive sowing dates separate rather than combining them in a larger tray. |
| Covered propagation | Compatible with the Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid (GA0016), available separately. |
Mini, Small or Standard Garland Seed Tray?
Choosing the appropriate tray size allows growers to match the amount of growing medium and bench space used to the number of plants being propagated.
| Garland tray | Dimensions | Typical use |
|---|---|---|
| Mini Seed Tray | 17 x 10 x 5cm | Small batches, variety trials and compact propagation areas |
| Small Seed Tray | 23 x 17 x 6cm | Small to medium propagation batches |
| Standard Seed Tray | 37.5 x 23 x 6cm | General seed sowing and larger propagation batches |
The Mini Seed Tray is the most compact option of these three sizes and is particularly useful where growing space is limited or where only a small number of seeds need to be started.

Garland Mini Seed Tray Black with Holes FAQs
What size is the Garland Mini Seed Tray?
The tray measures 17cm long x 10cm wide x 5cm high, making it a particularly compact option for small propagation batches. Does the Garland Mini Seed Tray have drainage holes?
Yes. The base has integrated drainage holes that allow excess irrigation water to escape from the growing medium. Can seeds be sown directly into the Mini Seed Tray?
Yes. The tray can be filled with a suitable seed or propagation compost and used for direct sowing. Follow the appropriate sowing depth, spacing and growing conditions for the chosen crop. Why use a mini seed tray instead of a standard tray?
A mini tray is useful when only a small quantity of seeds is required. It can also help keep different varieties or sowing dates separate while using less bench or windowsill space. Can I use the tray on a windowsill?
Yes. Its compact dimensions make it particularly suitable for windowsill propagation. Because the tray has drainage holes, use a suitable solid tray underneath to protect the surface from water. Which propagator lid fits the Garland Mini Seed Tray?
The tray is compatible with the Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid (GA0016). Is the propagator lid included?
No. This product is the black Mini Seed Tray with drainage holes. The compatible Garland Mini High Dome Propagator Lid is available separately. Can the tray be used without a propagator lid?
Yes. It can be used as a conventional open seed tray or combined with the compatible lid when a covered propagation environment is required. Is this tray suitable for professional propagation?
Yes. The compact format is useful for small nursery batches, germination trials, different varieties and other situations where separating propagation into smaller groups is beneficial. How many Garland Mini Seed Trays are in an outer case?
The outer case quantity is 50 trays.

Unit price perThe Garland Mini Garden Tray Green Without Holes is a compact, watertight growing tray measuring 23 x 17 x 6cm. Its solid, unperforated base makes it ideal for bottom watering, collecting irrigation run-off and protecting windowsills, greenhouse shelves and work surfaces from water and growing media.
The compact format provides a practical alternative to a full-sized garden tray when only a small group of pots or propagation containers needs to be managed. The 6cm sides provide useful depth for containing water and debris while keeping the overall footprint small enough for restricted growing spaces.
Unlike a perforated seed tray, this Garland Garden Tray has no drainage holes. Water is retained within the tray, allowing it to be used beneath pots for bottom watering or as a collection tray for drainage and irrigation run-off.
Why choose the Garland Mini Garden Tray?
Compact tray for bottom watering
The solid base makes the Garland Mini Garden Tray particularly useful for bottom watering. Compatible pots or propagation containers with drainage holes can be placed inside the tray before water is added.
Moisture can then move into the growing medium through the drainage openings in the individual containers. This provides an alternative to overhead watering and can be useful when working with young plants or growing media where disturbing the surface with a watering can is undesirable.
Watering requirements vary considerably between crops, container sizes, growing media and environmental conditions. Monitor plants carefully and avoid leaving them standing in excess water for longer than appropriate for the crop.
Collect drainage water & protect growing surfaces
The Garland Mini Garden Tray also works as a compact run-off collection tray. When plants are watered from above, drainage from the pots can be captured within the tray rather than reaching the surface underneath.
This makes the tray particularly convenient for windowsills, shelves and propagation areas where controlling irrigation run-off is important. The raised sides help keep water contained while providing room for compatible pots and small plant containers.
For greenhouse and nursery use, several trays can also be used to divide small batches of plants into manageable groups, helping growers keep different crops, varieties or watering requirements separate.
More than a plant watering tray
The combination of a solid base and 6cm sides makes this Garland tray useful for a variety of growing and potting jobs.
| Bottom watering | Use beneath compatible pots and propagation containers to provide water from below. |
|---|---|
| Run-off collection | Captures drainage water from pots and helps protect the surface underneath. |
| Windowsill growing | Compact dimensions make it useful where available growing space is limited. |
| Pot organisation | Provides a convenient way to group compatible small pots and young plants together. |
| Potting jobs | Raised sides help contain loose compost and debris during small-scale planting and transplanting work. |
| Propagation | Can be used beneath compatible propagation containers to manage watering and drainage. |
Garden Tray or Seed Tray?
The key difference between this Garland Garden Tray and the similarly sized Garland Small Seed Tray is the base.

Unit price perThe Garland Midi Garden Tray Green Without Holes is a versatile, watertight growing and watering tray measuring 37.5 x 23 x 6cm. Its solid, unperforated base makes it ideal for bottom watering plants, collecting irrigation run-off and protecting greenhouse benches, shelves and other growing surfaces.
Sharing the same practical footprint as Garland's Standard Seed Tray, the Midi Garden Tray provides a useful medium-sized platform for groups of pots, propagation containers and young plants. The important difference is the base: this version has no drainage holes, so water remains contained within the tray rather than passing through.
The 6cm high sides provide useful depth for holding irrigation water and containing loose growing media or potting debris. This makes the tray suitable for professional nurseries, greenhouse production, propagation areas and general gardening applications.
Why choose the Garland Midi Garden Tray?
Ideal for bottom watering pots & young plants
The Garland Midi Garden Tray provides a convenient way to bottom water compatible plant pots and propagation containers. Because the tray has a solid base, water can be added directly to the tray and retained around containers placed inside it.
Growing media can then absorb moisture through the drainage holes in individual pots or cells. This provides an alternative to watering from above and can be particularly useful with young plants or where growers want to avoid repeatedly disturbing the surface of the growing medium.
The amount of water and length of time containers remain in the tray should always be adjusted to suit the crop, container size, substrate and growing conditions. Unwanted standing water should be removed where appropriate.
Contain irrigation run-off
The solid base also makes the Midi Garden Tray useful as a drip and run-off collection tray. Pots can drain normally after watering while excess water is retained within the tray rather than reaching the surface underneath.
This can help keep greenhouse staging, propagation benches, shelves and other growing areas cleaner and easier to manage. It is also useful where several compatible pots need to be grouped together and watered as a batch.
With a footprint of 37.5 x 23cm, the tray offers substantially more working area than Garland's smaller garden tray while remaining compact enough to fit conveniently into many propagation and greenhouse layouts.
Compatible with Garland propagator lids
The Garland Midi Garden Tray shares its 37.5 x 23cm format with Garland's standard propagation system and can be combined with several compatible lids.
| Garland Large Budget Propagator Lid | GA0014 |

The fibrous structure provides a growing surface that can be moistened before sowing. As seeds germinate, their roots develop into the mat, helping to hold the young plants in place during growth.
Unlike loose compost, a fibre mat does not need to be measured out or spread across a tray before every sowing. This can simplify preparation and reduce the amount of loose growing medium handled during propagation.
The mats are biodegradable and compostable, providing an alternative to synthetic propagation mats. After harvesting, the used mat and remaining root material can be composted where suitable composting facilities are available.
Material note: The mats contain hemp fibre and natural latex. They should not be described as being made entirely from hemp fibre.
How to grow microgreens using hemp mats
1. Prepare the growing tray
Place a growing mat inside a clean, suitable seed tray. The Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray is designed to accommodate the mat, although other appropriately sized trays can also be used.
If necessary, trim the mat with scissors to fit the tray.
2. Moisten the mat
Thoroughly moisten the mat with clean water before sowing. The fibres should be evenly damp to provide suitable moisture for germination.
Avoid leaving excessive standing water around the mat, as prolonged waterlogging can create unsuitable conditions for developing seedlings.
3. Sow the seeds
Distribute suitable microgreen seeds evenly across the surface, following the seed supplier's recommendations for sowing density and germination conditions.
Different crops require different sowing rates. Larger seeds may need more space than smaller-seeded varieties.
4. Maintain suitable growing conditions
Keep the mat consistently moist throughout germination and early growth. Provide the temperature, ventilation and lighting appropriate to the chosen crop.
Monitor moisture regularly, particularly in warm or well-ventilated environments where the mat may dry more quickly.
5. Harvest the microgreens
Once the crop reaches the appropriate harvesting stage, cut the shoots above the growing mat using clean scissors or another suitable harvesting tool.
Because the plants are grown without loose compost, harvesting can be cleaner and easier to manage.
Which microgreens can be grown on hemp mats?
Hemp growing mats can be used for many commonly cultivated microgreen varieties, provided their germination and moisture requirements are suitable for this type of growing medium.
| Microgreen crop | Growing considerations |
|---|---|
| Radish | A popular microgreen crop with relatively rapid establishment under suitable conditions. |
| Broccoli | Small seeds suitable for producing tender young shoots. |
| Mustard | Useful for producing peppery-flavoured microgreens. |
| Rocket | Produces distinctive-flavoured young leaves and requires careful moisture management. |
| Pea shoots | Larger seeds require appropriate preparation, spacing and sufficient moisture during establishment. |
| Sunflower | Larger seeds require suitable sowing density and careful management of moisture and airflow. |
Always use seeds intended for edible sprouting or microgreen production. Not all plant species are suitable for consumption as microgreens.
Ideal for home growing & small-scale production
Microgreens Growing Mats are particularly useful where a compact, straightforward growing method is preferred.
| Windowsill growing | Produce small batches of fresh microgreens in a suitable tray where adequate light and growing conditions are available. |
|---|---|
| Greenhouse propagation | Use in protected growing environments with appropriate temperature, ventilation and moisture management. |
| Microgreen trials | Useful for testing different varieties, sowing densities and growing conditions in separate trays. |
| Small-scale production | Provides a convenient growing medium for repeat microgreen sowings. |
| Educational growing projects | Allows germination and seedling development to be observed without conventional compost. |
Hemp growing mats vs traditional compost
Both natural fibre mats and conventional propagation compost can be used to grow suitable microgreen crops. The most appropriate choice depends on the crop, growing system and preferred method of cultivation.
| Feature | Hemp Growing Mat | Propagation Compost |
|---|---|---|
| Preparation | Place the mat in a tray and moisten before sowing. | Fill the tray with a suitable depth of growing medium. |
| Growing medium | Natural hemp fibre bonded with latex. | Loose compost or other propagation substrate. |
| Harvesting | No loose compost around the harvested shoots. | Loose growing medium may require additional care during harvesting. |
| Tray compatibility | Can be cut to fit compatible trays. | Can be used in a wide range of containers. |
| Nutrition | Primarily provides physical support and moisture; crop nutrition depends on the growing method. | May provide nutrients depending on the compost formulation. |

Haxnicks Microgreens Growing Mats FAQs
What are Haxnicks Microgreens Growing Mats made from?
They are made from natural hemp fibre bonded with natural latex. The combination creates a fibrous growing surface suitable for soil-free microgreen production. Do I need compost when using these mats?
No. The mats are designed to provide a growing medium for microgreens without the need for conventional compost. What size are the growing mats?
Each mat measures approximately 33 x 18cm and can be trimmed to fit smaller compatible growing trays. Which trays are compatible with the mats?
They are designed to fit Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Trays and can also be used with other suitably sized growing trays. Can I cut the growing mats to size?
Yes. The mats can be trimmed with scissors to suit smaller trays or different propagation layouts. Do microgreens need fertiliser when grown on hemp mats?
Many microgreen crops can complete their short growing cycle using nutrients stored within the seed. However, requirements vary by species, growing duration and production method. The mat itself should not be treated as a fertiliser. Can the mats be used more than once?
They are best treated as single-crop growing media. Roots become established within the fibres during cultivation, making it difficult to remove all plant material after harvesting. Are the mats biodegradable and compostable?
Yes. Haxnicks identifies the hemp and natural latex mats as biodegradable and compostable. Can I grow microgreens indoors?
Yes. The mats are suitable for indoor microgreen growing when used in an appropriate tray with sufficient light, ventilation and temperature control. How do I prevent the growing mat from drying out?
Check moisture regularly and add clean water when required. The mat should remain appropriately moist during germination without becoming excessively waterlogged. How do I reduce the risk of mould during propagation?
Use clean trays, suitable seeds and clean water. Avoid excessive moisture, maintain appropriate airflow and follow crop-specific growing guidance. Discard crops showing signs of spoilage or contamination. Can I grow any type of seed as a microgreen?
No. Only grow plant species suitable for consumption at the microgreen stage. Use seeds intended for edible microgreen or sprouting production and follow the supplier's growing instructions. What are the advantages of using a growing mat instead of compost?
Growing mats eliminate loose compost from the propagation tray, simplify preparation and provide a cleaner growing surface for harvesting young shoots.

Unit price perThe Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray is a reusable, biodegradable propagation tray made from sustainable bamboo fibre, rice starch and resin derived from naturally occurring organic compounds. Measuring 37 x 21 x 5.5cm, it provides a practical alternative to conventional plastic seed trays for seed sowing, raising seedlings and growing microgreens.
Designed for repeated use, this sage green seed tray combines the convenience of a traditional propagation tray with materials that can be composted at the end of their useful life. Haxnicks states that its bamboo seed trays are designed to last for five years or more under normal use, making them a long-term alternative to disposable propagation products.
One of the tray's most useful features is its optional drainage system. The base is supplied without open drainage holes, allowing it to retain water for indoor growing and bottom watering. When drainage is required, the pre-marked holes can be pushed out using the tip of a garden trowel.
Suitable for indoor and outdoor growing, the Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray is particularly useful for gardeners, propagation enthusiasts and growers looking to reduce their reliance on petroleum-based plastic products.
Why choose the Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray?
Made from sustainable bamboo-based materials
The Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray forms part of the manufacturer's range of sustainable gardening products, developed to provide alternatives to conventional petroleum-based plastic pots and propagation accessories.
The tray is manufactured from a combination of:
The resulting material is free from petroleum-based plastics and BPA. Unlike disposable fibre propagation containers intended to break down quickly, the Haxnicks tray is designed to remain in use for multiple growing seasons before being composted.
This combination of durability and compostability makes it particularly appealing to growers who want to reduce single-use plastic consumption without replacing their seed trays after every crop.
Optional drainage holes for flexible watering
One of the distinguishing features of the Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray is its adaptable drainage system.
The tray is supplied without open drainage holes. This allows it to retain water when used indoors, beneath pots or with suitable growing mats.
If drainage is required, the pre-marked sections in the base can be pushed out using the tip of a garden trowel or another suitable blunt gardening tool.
Using the tray without drainage holes
Leaving the base intact is useful for:
When using the tray without drainage holes, take care not to overwater. Excess moisture can accumulate in the base and create unsuitable conditions for developing seedlings.
Using the tray with drainage holes
Opening the pre-marked drainage holes allows excess irrigation water to escape from the tray, making it more suitable for direct seed sowing into propagation compost.
This configuration is particularly useful for greenhouse propagation, where free drainage can help prevent growing media from remaining excessively wet.
Important: Once the drainage sections have been removed, the tray will no longer retain water through its base. Place a suitable collection tray underneath when using it on surfaces that require protection.
Suitable for seed sowing, seedlings & microgreens
The Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray can be used for a variety of propagation applications, depending on the growing medium and whether the drainage holes have been opened.
| Application | How the tray can be used |
|---|---|
| Seed sowing | Fill with suitable seed compost and sow vegetable, herb or flower seeds. Open the drainage holes where free drainage is required. |
| Raising seedlings | Provide a contained growing area for young plants during early development. |
| Microgreens | Use with compatible hemp growing mats or other suitable growing media for soil-free microgreen production. |
| Bottom watering | Leave the base intact and use beneath compatible pots or propagation containers with drainage openings. |
| Greenhouse propagation | Use on greenhouse benches or staging for seasonal seed sowing and young plant production. |
| Windowsill growing | Grow small batches of suitable crops indoors with appropriate light and moisture management. |
Ideal for use with Haxnicks Microgreens Growing Mats
The Bamboo Seed Tray is designed to work with Haxnicks Microgreens Growing Mats, providing a convenient setup for producing microgreens without conventional compost.
The natural hemp fibre mats measure approximately 33 x 18cm and fit within the Bamboo Seed Tray. They provide a fibrous growing surface for seed germination and early root development.
To use the two products together:
For this application, leaving the tray's drainage holes intact allows water to be retained beneath the mat. However, moisture should be monitored carefully to avoid excessive standing water.
Haxnicks Microgreens Growing Mats are available separately.
Reusable for 5+ years & compostable at end of life
Although manufactured from biodegradable materials, the Haxnicks Bamboo Seed Tray is designed to be durable enough for repeated use.
Haxnicks states that its bamboo pots and seed trays have an expected useful life of five years or more, depending on how they are used and maintained.
Between growing cycles, remove remaining compost and plant material, clean the tray appropriately and allow it to dry before storage.
When the tray eventually reaches the end of its useful life, it can be added to a suitable home composting system.
Haxnicks advises that composting may take approximately 6-12 months, depending on composting conditions. Breaking the tray into smaller pieces before adding it to an active compost heap can help speed up decomposition.
This offers an alternative end-of-life route to conventional petroleum-based plastic seed trays.

Unit price perThe Aeroplas AC Carry Tray Grey is a professional horticultural carry tray designed to make grouped plants easier to handle, organise, move and present throughout nursery production, dispatch and retail.
Measuring approximately 53.5 x 42cm, the AC Carry Tray provides a substantial platform for compatible nursery pots. Its moulded construction incorporates defined pot sections, strengthening ribs and multiple openings across the base, creating a practical tray for commercial plant handling.
For professional growers, carry trays provide an efficient way to manage plants as groups rather than repeatedly handling individual pots. This can help streamline movement between growing areas, order preparation, loading, delivery and garden centre presentation.
Finished in grey, the tray provides a neutral professional appearance suited to nursery and retail environments. Manufactured by Aeroplas in the West Midlands, it forms part of a specialist UK-manufactured horticultural plastics range developed for commercial growers, nurseries and plant retailers.
A full pallet contains 880 AC Carry Trays.
Why choose the Aeroplas AC Carry Tray?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer producing plastic products specifically for the professional horticultural industry. Its range includes nursery pots, carry trays and related products designed around the day-to-day requirements of commercial plant production and retail.
Carry trays are an important part of that system. A suitable tray allows compatible pots to be organised into consistent groups, making plants easier to handle as they move through different stages of production and distribution.
UK manufacture also provides professional growers and horticultural businesses with a domestically produced option when specifying trays and containers for larger production programmes.
Designed for efficient plant handling
Handling individual plant pots repeatedly can become a significant task in a commercial nursery. Plants may need to move between propagation and growing areas, be repositioned for spacing, assembled into customer orders and finally transferred through dispatch and delivery.
The Aeroplas AC Carry Tray allows compatible pots to be managed together as a group. This provides a more organised unit for routine plant movement and can simplify the process of keeping batches and varieties together.
Carry trays can also help maintain a more consistent layout when plants are being staged for dispatch or presented at retail. Rather than arranging loose pots individually every time they are moved, the tray provides a defined format that can remain with the plants through several handling stages.
Moulded sections & open drainage design
The AC Carry Tray features a moulded base with defined sections for compatible plant pots. Raised structural areas separate the sections and help provide support across the tray.
Multiple openings are incorporated throughout the base. These allow irrigation and drainage water from the pots to pass through the carry tray rather than collecting around the containers.
This is particularly useful in nursery environments where plants may remain in their carry trays while being irrigated. The AC Carry Tray should therefore be treated as an open transport and handling tray rather than a watertight irrigation tray.
Where run-off needs to be collected, the carry tray should be positioned on a suitable bench, irrigation system or separate collection surface.
From nursery production to garden centre
The Aeroplas AC Carry Tray can support several stages of the commercial plant supply chain.
| Nursery production | Group compatible potted crops into manageable units for routine handling and movement around the nursery. |
|---|---|
| Crop organisation | Keep compatible plants, cultivars or production batches together as they move through the growing area. |
| Irrigation areas | The open base allows drainage water to pass through when compatible potted plants are irrigated. |
| Order preparation | Use trays to organise suitable plants while customer and wholesale orders are being assembled. |
| Dispatch | Provides a consistent handling unit for compatible pots during preparation for onward transport. |
| Retail presentation | Suitable for keeping compatible nursery plants grouped together within garden centre and plant retail environments. |
Choosing compatible pots
Carry tray compatibility depends on more than the nominal litre capacity of a plant pot. The external diameter, base profile, taper and overall shape of the container all influence how securely it sits within a moulded tray.
For that reason, pot compatibility should be checked against the specific container being used rather than assuming that every pot of a similar stated volume will fit the AC Carry Tray.
This is particularly important for commercial growers standardising a production system across substantial quantities of pots and trays. Confirming the correct pot and carry tray combination before a large production run helps ensure consistent handling throughout the crop.
Built for commercial horticultural workflows
Standardised carry trays can provide benefits throughout a professional nursery. Using a consistent handling format can make crop movements more predictable, simplify order assembly and provide a practical unit for staff working across growing, picking and dispatch operations.
The 53.5 x 42cm AC Carry Tray is intended for these professional applications, providing a repeatable format that can be incorporated into nursery handling systems where compatible pots are being used.
For growers purchasing at scale, a full pallet contains 880 trays, providing stock for substantial nursery production and plant distribution programmes.

Why choose the Aeroplas 18 Pot Euro Carry Tray?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer specialising in plastic products for professional horticulture. Its range includes nursery pots, pot carry trays and related products designed around the practical requirements of commercial plant production and retail.
Carry trays play an important role in modern nursery handling systems. Once individual pots are grouped into a compatible tray, plants can remain organised as they progress through growing areas, picking, dispatch and onward distribution.
The Euro Carry Tray is designed around this commercial workflow, providing a consistent 18-pot format for growers using compatible 9cm round nursery pots.
18 individual positions for 9cm round pots
The tray contains 18 moulded round positions designed for compatible 9cm nursery pots. Each plant therefore has a defined location within the tray rather than standing loose on a flat surface.
This arrangement helps keep pots separated and organised during normal nursery handling. It can also make crop counting straightforward, as a completely filled tray represents 18 plants.
For larger production runs, working in consistent tray quantities can simplify crop organisation, stock movements and order preparation. Growers can quickly identify complete and partially filled trays rather than repeatedly counting individual pots.
Although designed around a 9cm round pot format, compatibility should always be confirmed with the specific pot being used. Pot profiles and external dimensions can vary between manufacturers even when they share the same nominal size.
Efficient handling throughout the nursery
Commercial plant production involves repeated movement. Crops may be transferred between potting areas, growing spaces, irrigation zones and holding areas before being picked and dispatched to customers.
Using a carry tray allows multiple pots to be treated as one organised handling unit. With 18 compatible pots loaded, the Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray can reduce the need to position and move each container separately.
The defined pot positions also help maintain crop organisation. Different cultivars, colours or production batches can be allocated to separate trays, making it easier to keep plants together as they progress through the nursery.
For wholesale production, the same format can continue into order assembly and dispatch, creating a consistent handling system from the growing area through to the customer.
Open design for irrigation & drainage
The moulded pot positions incorporate openings through the base of the carry tray. These allow excess irrigation water draining from compatible nursery pots to pass through rather than being retained around the containers.
This makes the tray suitable for nursery growing environments where plants may remain grouped during irrigation.
The Euro Carry Tray is not a watertight irrigation tray. Where drainage water needs to be collected or contained, the carry tray should be used over a suitable bench, irrigation system or separate collection surface.
Ideal for nursery production, dispatch & retail
| Nursery production | Organise up to 18 compatible 9cm potted plants into a consistent production unit. |
|---|---|
| Crop handling | Move groups of compatible plants between growing and working areas more efficiently. |
| Crop organisation | Keep varieties, colours or production batches grouped together throughout the nursery. |
| Irrigation | Openings beneath the pot positions allow drainage water to pass through the carry tray. |
| Order preparation | Use consistent 18-pot groups when assembling suitable wholesale or retail plant orders. |
| Dispatch | Provides an organised handling format for compatible pots during preparation for onward distribution. |
| Retail presentation | Can keep compatible plants neatly grouped for appropriate garden centre and plant retail displays. |
Designed for commercial growing at scale
Standardising pot and carry tray formats can make day-to-day nursery operations easier to manage. When a crop is produced in compatible 9cm pots and grouped into 18-pot trays, growers gain a predictable handling unit for moving and counting stock.
This can be particularly useful for high-volume crops such as herbs, bedding plants, young ornamentals and other plants commonly produced in smaller nursery containers.
The tray format can also support picking and dispatch workflows. Full trays represent a known quantity of 18 plants, while partially filled trays can be identified quickly during order assembly.
With 1,400 trays per full pallet, the Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray is suitable for substantial commercial growing programmes and wholesale plant production.
Checking pot compatibility
This Euro Carry Tray is designed for 18 compatible 9cm round pots. However, nominal pot size alone does not guarantee compatibility.
The external diameter, taper, rim and base profile of nursery pots can differ between product ranges. For commercial production, the specific pot and tray combination should therefore be checked before committing to large quantities.
Using a correctly matched pot helps the tray provide the intended level of support and ensures plants remain properly positioned during normal nursery handling.

Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray 9cm Round x 18 FAQs
How many pots does the Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray hold?
The tray contains 18 individual pot positions for compatible 9cm round nursery pots. What size pots is this tray designed for?
It is designed for compatible 9cm round nursery pots. Because pot profiles can vary between manufacturers, compatibility should be checked with the specific pot being used. What size is the tray?
The Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray measures approximately 56cm x 25cm. Does the tray have drainage openings?
Yes. The moulded pot positions have openings that allow irrigation and drainage water from compatible pots to pass through the tray. Is the Euro Carry Tray watertight?
No. This is an open carry tray rather than a water-retaining irrigation tray. Use a suitable collection surface underneath where run-off needs to be contained. Can plants remain in the tray while being watered?
Yes, where appropriate for the crop and irrigation system. Water draining from the individual pots can pass through the openings in the tray. Is the tray useful for counting nursery stock?
Yes. A completely filled tray contains 18 plants, providing growers with a convenient known quantity when organising, counting and moving compatible crops. Can the tray be used for retail plant displays?
Yes. The individual pot positions can keep compatible plants organised for appropriate garden centre and plant retail presentation as well as nursery production. Is the Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray made in the UK?
Yes. Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer specialising in products for professional horticulture. What colour is this Euro Carry Tray?
This version is supplied in grey. Can I use any manufacturer's 9cm pot in this tray?
Not necessarily. Pots described as 9cm can differ in rim diameter, taper and overall profile. Check compatibility with the specific pot before purchasing trays for a large production programme. How many Aeroplas Euro Carry Trays are supplied on a pallet?
A full pallet contains 1,400 trays.

Measuring 56 x 25cm, the tray provides a standardised rectangular footprint for grouping plants into manageable handling units. Each of the eight moulded positions supports an individual compatible pot, helping maintain an organised arrangement during normal nursery operations.
Rather than repeatedly moving individual containers, growers can handle eight compatible potted plants together. This is particularly useful when crops are transferred between growing areas, assembled into customer orders or prepared for dispatch.

Why choose the Aeroplas 13cm Euro Carry Tray?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer specialising in plastic products for the professional horticultural industry. Its range includes nursery pots, plant carry trays and other products developed around the requirements of commercial plant production and distribution.
Carry trays are an important part of an efficient nursery operation. By grouping compatible containers into consistent handling units, growers can simplify crop movement, plant counting, order preparation and dispatch.
The Euro Carry Tray range is designed around these practical requirements, providing standardised formats for commonly used nursery pot sizes.
Manufacturing in the UK also gives British horticultural businesses access to domestically produced handling products when specifying equipment for ongoing nursery production programmes.
Eight individual positions for 13cm round pots
The Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray features eight moulded circular pot positions designed to accommodate compatible 13cm round nursery pots.
Each pot sits within its own defined position, helping maintain separation between containers and reducing unwanted movement during normal handling.
This is particularly useful for plants with established foliage, where keeping containers organised can help reduce unnecessary contact between neighbouring plants as they are moved.
The eight-pot configuration also provides a straightforward counting system. A completely filled tray represents eight plants, making it easier to calculate stock quantities and prepare customer orders.
For example, ten fully loaded trays contain 80 plants, while 25 trays contain 200 plants.
Pot compatibility should be checked before use, as the external dimensions and profiles of nominally 13cm pots can vary between manufacturers.
Efficient Danish trolley loading
The Aeroplas 13cm Euro Carry Tray uses a 56 x 25cm format designed for efficient handling and transport within professional horticultural distribution systems.
The Euro Carry Tray specification provides for five trays per standard Danish trolley shelf.
With eight compatible pots in each tray, this provides a potential loading capacity of 40 plants per shelf.
This standardised arrangement is useful for growers and wholesalers planning plant movements, trolley loading and customer deliveries.
Actual loading arrangements should always account for plant height, foliage spread, shelf configuration and the safe loading limits of the trolley.
| Pots per tray | 8 |
|---|---|
| Trays per Danish shelf | 5 |
| Pot capacity per shelf | 40 compatible pots |
| Tray footprint | 56 x 25cm |
Improve efficiency throughout nursery production
Commercial nurseries often move plants several times during their production cycle. Crops may be transferred from potting areas into growing spaces, repositioned as they develop, graded before sale and finally assembled into customer orders.
The Aeroplas Euro Carry Tray allows eight compatible 13cm pots to be handled as one organised group rather than repeatedly moving individual containers.
This can simplify routine operations while helping keep plants arranged consistently throughout the nursery.
Separate trays can also be used to organise different cultivars, colours, production batches or customer allocations.
For businesses producing large quantities of container-grown plants, standardising around a consistent pot and tray combination can make stock handling more predictable.
Open drainage design for nursery irrigation
The tray incorporates openings beneath the individual pot positions, allowing water draining from compatible nursery containers to pass through.
This is useful in production environments where plants remain grouped in their carry trays during routine irrigation.
Rather than creating a sealed reservoir beneath each pot, the open design allows excess water to escape towards the underlying growing surface or irrigation collection system.
The Euro Carry Tray is therefore not intended to function as a watertight irrigation tray.
Where irrigation run-off needs to be collected, use the tray over an appropriate bench, collection surface or nursery irrigation arrangement.
Suitable for commercial growing, dispatch & retail
The Aeroplas 13cm Euro Carry Tray can be incorporated into several stages of the professional horticultural supply chain.
| Commercial nurseries | Group eight compatible 13cm potted plants into a consistent handling unit. |
|---|---|
| Plant production | Keep crops organised while moving between potting, growing and holding areas. |
| Crop management | Separate varieties, colours or production batches into clearly defined tray groups. |
| Danish trolley loading | Five trays per shelf provide capacity for up to 40 compatible potted plants. |
| Wholesale order picking | Use consistent eight-pot quantities when assembling and checking customer orders. |
| Plant distribution | Maintain organised pot groups during preparation for onward transport. |
| Garden centres | Keep compatible nursery plants grouped together for suitable retail display and replenishment. |
Choosing the correct 13cm nursery pots
The Euro Carry Tray is designed for eight compatible 13cm round pots, but nominal pot diameter does not guarantee an exact fit across every manufacturer's range.
Differences in rim diameter, container taper, base dimensions and overall pot profile can affect how securely a pot sits within the moulded position.
For commercial production, it is sensible to check the intended pot and tray combination before ordering substantial quantities.
A correctly matched container should sit properly within the moulded support without requiring excessive force or being able to move freely around the position.
Growers should also consider plant size and canopy spread when planning tray loading, particularly for mature retail crops.
Designed for commercial horticulture at scale
Using consistent carry tray formats can simplify plant handling across growing, picking and dispatch operations.
With eight pots per tray, staff can quickly calculate quantities, identify incomplete trays and keep individual customer orders organised.
The standardised Euro footprint also supports predictable trolley loading, making it useful for growers supplying plant wholesalers, garden centres and other professional horticultural customers.
Where trays remain clean and undamaged, they can be retained for further use within suitable nursery workflows.
A full pallet contains 1,400 Aeroplas Euro Carry Trays, providing a substantial quantity for commercial production and distribution requirements.

Why choose the Aeroplas 1.4L Square/Round Carry Tray?
UK manufactured by Aeroplas
Aeroplas is a West Midlands-based UK manufacturer specialising in plastic products for the professional horticultural industry. Its range includes nursery pots, carry trays and related products designed around the practical requirements of commercial plant production.
Carry trays provide growers with a straightforward way to convert individual plant pots into consistent handling units. This can make repeated crop movements, stock organisation, picking and dispatch easier to manage across a busy nursery.
The Square/Round Carry Tray range is particularly useful where growers require a tray format capable of accommodating compatible nursery pots with different container profiles.
Designed for compatible square & round 1.4L pots
The tray contains eight moulded pot positions designed for compatible 1.4L square or round nursery pots.
Each container sits within a defined support area rather than standing loose on a flat tray. This helps maintain an organised layout during normal handling and keeps plants grouped as they move through the production process.
The eight positions are arranged in two rows of four, providing a convenient format for plant counting. A completely filled tray represents eight plants, which can simplify stock checks and order preparation.
Nominal pot capacity alone does not guarantee compatibility. Different 1.4L pots can vary in rim dimensions, taper, base shape and overall profile, so growers should check the intended pot against the tray before committing to large quantities.
Efficient plant handling throughout the nursery
Plants can be moved numerous times between potting and final dispatch. They may be transferred into growing areas, repositioned as the crop develops, graded, assembled into customer orders and moved again for loading.
The Aeroplas Square/Round Carry Tray allows eight compatible 1.4L containers to be managed as one organised group rather than repeatedly handling every pot separately.
Separate trays can also help growers keep cultivars, colours or production batches together. This can be particularly useful where visually similar crops are being grown alongside one another.
For wholesale order preparation, the eight-pot configuration provides a known quantity that can make picking and checking plant numbers more straightforward.
Open base for irrigation & drainage
Openings within the individual pot positions allow water draining from compatible nursery pots to pass through the carry tray.
This allows plants to remain grouped during appropriate nursery irrigation without creating a sealed reservoir beneath each container.
The tray should therefore be regarded as a carry and handling tray rather than a watertight irrigation tray. Where run-off needs to be collected, position the tray over a suitable growing bench, irrigation collection system or separate water-retaining surface.
