Oasis FERTISS Carrier Tray

Precision-Fit Carrier Tray for Oasis FERTISS Growing Media Plugs

A carrier tray built to the wrong growing-media geometry means loose plugs, uneven watering, and wasted bench space. Smithers-Oasis engineers this carrier tray to the precise dimensions of Oasis FERTISS growing media, so plugs seat securely and stay organized from insertion through rooting. It's built for repeated use across commercial propagation cycles.

This carrier tray is purpose-built for Oasis FERTISS plugs specifically, replacing model #5300 for growers standardized on the FERTISS propagation system.

Key Features & Benefits

• Precision Fit for Oasis FERTISS Plugs — engineered to the exact geometry of Oasis FERTISS growing media, so plugs seat securely without shifting.
• Durable, Reusable Construction — built to withstand repeated commercial propagation cycles and routine sanitizing between batches.
• Replaces Model #5300 — a direct fit for growers already standardized on the earlier FERTISS carrier tray.
• Organized Media Handling — keeps plugs upright and separated through the critical early rooting phase, reducing handling damage.

Who Should Use This

Commercial propagators already using Oasis FERTISS growing media who need a properly fitting carrier tray to keep plugs organized and protected through rooting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What growing media does this carrier tray fit?

This tray is engineered specifically to fit Oasis FERTISS growing media plugs. It isn't designed to hold other plug or cube formats securely.

What does this tray replace?

This carrier tray replaces model #5300 in the Smithers-Oasis lineup. It's the current version of the FERTISS carrier tray.

Will other growing media fit in this tray?

The tray is built to match the specific dimensions of Oasis FERTISS media. Other media with similar dimensions may fit, but a secure fit is only guaranteed with Smithers-Oasis FERTISS products.

Can this tray be reused across multiple propagation cycles?

Yes. The tray is built for durability and repeated use. Clean it between cycles with a diluted sanitizing solution before the next batch.

How is a FERTISS carrier tray different from a WEDGE carrier tray?

Each tray is engineered to match a specific Oasis growing media format — FERTISS plugs or WEDGE cubes. That means the two carrier trays are not interchangeable between media types.
