Frequently Asked Questions

What are the "deep-channel bottom ridges"?

Deep-channel bottom ridges are raised longitudinal ribs on the interior floor of the tray that elevate pots slightly above the waterline and channel runoff toward the drainage holes, preventing waterlogging and improving root-zone aeration.

Does this tray have drainage holes?

Yes. This version includes drainage holes for active water discharge. A no-holes version is also available if you prefer water retention or capillary watering.

Is this tray compatible with standard 1020 dome covers?

Yes. The standard 10in × 20in footprint fits all industry-standard 1020 dome covers for germination and early propagation humidity management.

How does this differ from the MEGA Color I.D. Tray?

The Extra Strength tray features deep-channel drainage ridges and reinforced sides at a strong mid-range price point. The MEGA Color I.D. Tray offers an even heavier 0.88in wall thickness rated to 120 lbs for the most demanding commercial applications.

Is this tray reusable for multiple growing seasons?

Yes. SUNPACK extra-strength trays are built for multi-season durability and can be cleaned, sanitized, and reused repeatedly.
