The HC Companies Dillen® 6-Pocket Universal Injection Spacer Tray - 1 Gal Trade Squat - 19in × 12.6in × 2.6in - 25-Pack

Open-Structure Spacing for Ebb-and-Flood and Capillary Mat Growing

A solid-bottom tray traps water and air beneath the pot, which works against growers running ebb-and-flood or capillary mat irrigation. The HC Companies Dillen® 6-Pocket Universal Injection Spacer Tray solves that with an open-structure design that spaces 1 Gal Trade Squat round pots above the tray floor, letting water, air, and nutrient solution move freely underneath instead of pooling.

That same open geometry actively circulates air around each pot base, cutting algae buildup and supporting healthier root-zone conditions, while each cell still locks its pot firmly in place through transport, growing, and shipping. Sold 25/case, 54 cases per pallet. Tray dimensions: 19in L x 12.6in W x 2.6in H.

Key Features & Benefits

• Open-structure spacing — lifts pots off the tray floor so water, air, and nutrient solution circulate freely underneath instead of pooling.
• Algae-resistant airflow — continuous air movement around the pot base reduces the moisture buildup that feeds algae growth.
• Secure pot locking — each cell locks 1 Gal Trade Squat pots firmly in place despite the open structure, preventing shifting through transport and shipping.
• Watering system versatility — compatible with capillary mat, ebb-and-flood, and flooded floor irrigation setups.
• Universal injection-molded build — consistent cell geometry across the case for reliable pot fit tray to tray.

Who Should Use This

Commercial greenhouse growers and horticultural shippers running ebb-and-flood, capillary mat, or flooded floor irrigation with 1 Gal Trade Squat round pots are the direct fit for this spacer tray.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the open structure of this spacer tray prevent waterlogging?

The open-structure design creates space between each pot base and the tray floor, letting water, air, and nutrient solution move freely underneath. That spacing is what prevents waterlogging and algae buildup in the root zone.

Is this tray compatible with ebb-and-flood systems?

Yes, the open structure and cell geometry are specifically suited to ebb-and-flood, capillary mat, and flooded floor watering. Nutrient solution flows in and out freely without trapping excess water against the pot base.

Does the open design compromise pot stability?

No, each cell locks its pot securely in position despite the open structure, preventing tipping or movement during transport and growing cycles. The locking geometry and the open floor are separate design features that do not trade off against each other.

What is the case pack quantity?

Sold 25 pieces per case, with 54 cases per pallet. Contact Cannavista for pallet-level pricing.

What watering systems is this tray compatible with?

Capillary mat irrigation, ebb-and-flood recirculating systems, and flooded floor growing configurations all work with this tray's open floor design. Confirm your specific irrigation controller settings against the tray's open-floor drainage rate before full-scale changeover.
