Gravel Trays
Greenhouse Equipment and Accessories: Gravel Trays
A proper gravel tray is a vital tool for propagating and growing on in pots in the greenhouse.
The gravel tray has a thin layer of gravel placed into it which serves two purposes:
- First the gravel keeps the pots from sitting directly on the base which could prevent excess water from draining out and result in water-logged compost killing the plant
- Second the water below the top of the gravel helps to increase humidity but not in excess which could encourage fungal diseases.
A deep gravel tray can also be filled with washed damp sand and used to plunge pots into. This prevents them drying out and controls temperature to a degree. Use plastic rather than clay pots and screw them into the sand
