Living Whole Foods plastic growing trays 5-Pack Black no-drain, fits 20 x 10 hydroponic pads — durable, stackable for microgreens

These are five durable black plastic growing trays without drain holes, sized to fit 20" x 10" hydroponic pads and designed for repeated use with seedlings, microgreens, wheatgrass and drip-tray applications.

Built from sturdy black plastic and engineered with a tapered profile, each tray measures approximately 20.5" x 10 1/8" at the top, 19 7/8" x 9 3/8" at the bottom, and 2 3/8" deep. The pack of five is made to pair precisely with Sure to Grow pads and Micro-Mats hydroponic inserts, offering a no-drain-holes option for controlled moisture environments and drip containment. Lightweight yet rigid, these trays are intended for repeated cycles of planting and cleaning in greenhouse, home, or small commercial setups.

How do these trays work for hydroponic pads and micro-mats?

These trays accommodate 20" x 10" hydroponic and mat systems by providing a stable, shallow basin that prevents lateral movement and contains moisture. The absence of drain holes keeps nutrient solutions or water within the tray for recirculating or capillary systems.

• Top dimensions: 20.5" long x 10 1/8" wide for pad stability
• Bottom dimensions: 19 7/8" long x 9 3/8" wide to nest securely
• 2 3/8" depth supports mat thickness and growth media
• Fits Sure to Grow pads and Micro-Mats without trimming

What makes these trays suitable for seed starting and microgreens?

The shallow depth and wide surface area are ideal for seedlings and microgreens that need consistent moisture and surface light exposure. The black plastic helps hide stains and soil residue, while the durable construction stands up to frequent handling and cleaning.

• Shallow depth prevents overwatering and promotes even root spread
• Durable plastic resists cracking during reuse and transport
• No drain holes allow for bottom-watering or capillary setups
• Stackable shape saves space during storage

Can these trays be used in a greenhouse or as drip trays?

Yes — their no-drain design makes them effective as drip containment trays for potted plants or under hydroponic channels, and their robust walls handle greenhouse conditions. They work well for temporary holding, propagation benches, and as a base for small-scale automated watering systems.

• Serves as a drip tray for individual pots or multiple cells
• Reusable design reduces replacement frequency in greenhouse use
• Tapered base simplifies cleaning and stacking after use
• Black finish conceals water marks and organic residue

Who is this for: growers, educators and hobbyists who need a reliable, reusable tray for starting plants, growing wheatgrass or microgreens, or containing water in hydroponic and drip-tray setups. These trays suit small commercial operators, greenhouse managers, and at-home gardeners who want precise pad compatibility and a no-drain option for capillary or bottom-watering systems. If you require deeper reservoirs, active drainage, or a different footprint, consider alternate trays; otherwise, this 5-pack offers consistent size, sturdiness, and compatibility for routine propagation and microgreen production.
