I've been taking my plants to the kitchen to water/drain 1-2 pots at a time but....I may or may not have purchased 10 more plants yesterday and that's a lot of back and forth. They're mostly in my foyer which is a half level down.
I've been thinking about getting something I can keep in the garage (next to the foyer) and quickly set up/disassemble like this:
Anyone have any other suggestions or ideas?
I think this is a pretty neat idea! For some smaller pots I use a tray filled with water (linked below) for them to butt-chug and then I move them to an empty tray to dry before putting them back in their place
4" plant pot to help with scale.
I've seen others use their bathtub but I like the idea of not risking dirt/perlite/etc. clogging up the drains. Depending on your drain you could use a metal debris catcher thingy like I have in my laundry room sink (I found mine at the dollar store):
This is great!! Do you happen to know what those trays are called? I've seen them before but didn't know what to search for.
I just started propagating some plants so I've got a bunch of little cups to do now
[Edit] I'm so dumb. They're literally called "plant trays"!
How convenient that I need to go to the store tonight to get stuff for a moss pole
Lol I'm glad you found them because I did not know what they were called. I picked em up from my local nursery, they're pretty sturdy and were under $10 CAD
