Style 1A (lower image)
Suitable for up to 8” pots, has a central support designed with easy-drain diamond pattern. Useful for indoor growing,  can be supplied with propagation dome (1b) to hold humidity for sensitive plants. Great for cuttings. Made from ABS.

Size: 10.5" x 42" x 4" - 27 x 107 x 10cm


Style 1B - Dome for FlowTray 1A (upper image, dome clips available - below)
Propagation dome for style(1a), made from clear PET (pop bottles material) and will last for years. 7” inside height.

Size: 10.5" x 42" x 7" - 27 x 107 x 18cm

Style 2
Similar to (1a) and is set up to show your potted plants either for display or for sale.

Size: 10.5" x 78"x 4" - 27 x 198 x 10cm

Style 3
Nine pads with ¾” drain channels between them support your pots or Rootrainers. Diamond-shaped grooves on top of the pads ensure that pots will not “mud-over” as they would on a flat surface. Drain spaces can be provided anywhere, usually centred 6” in from an edge, with a little depressed collection pocket for pipe connections. Some customers originally asked for corners to be flat, to aid in attaching a support table. We can give you either flat or grooved tops at the corners. Grooved tops  give you the biggest surface area for pot- holding efficiency. Deeper sizes available - please specify your needs when you order.

Size: 35" x 45"x 4" - 89 x 114 x 10cm

Style 4 - Mid Size
Similar to Style (3). It has seven diamond-grooved pads, a little wider at 5+ inches, and we can supply up to four drain spaces, and they can be anywhere, corners, middle of a side, offset to miss some interference under the bench--- whatever. This lets you custom-design your special FlowTray, yet keep the low price of  a mass-produced item.

Size: 44.5" x 48"x 4" - 113 x 122 x 10cm

Style 5A - Deep Tray (lower image)
