Large Seed Tray with Self-Watering Base

This 3D-printable large seed tray is an essential tool for gardeners seeking a low-maintenance and effective solution for starting seedlings. It features 6 individual cells, each measuring 57mm x 57mm x 76mm, offering plenty of room to grow a diverse range of plants such as herbs, flowers, or robust vegetables in a single, space-saving unit. The deep cells encourage healthy root development, and the unique fold-open design allows each cell to easily separate, simplifying transplanting and protecting delicate roots from damage.

What makes this tray stand out is its integrated self-watering base. The lower tray captures excess water and redistributes it back to the cells, maintaining steady moisture levels without requiring frequent manual watering. Small drainage holes in each cell prevent waterlogging, fostering an optimal environment for vigorous plant growth. This feature is ideal for busy gardeners or anyone aiming to streamline their seed-starting routine.

Assembly Notes

• Fold all four sides of each cell inward on itself before placing into the tray
• The cells will flex into shape don’t force them
• Warm plastic folds better
  • If the print is fresh off the bed, it’s ideal
  • If it’s been sitting in a cold shop, warm it slightly before folding
• Cold prints are more brittle and can snap during folding
• Take your time here once they’re in, they stay solid.

• The large print profile consists of 6 individual cells, with the base’s overall dimensions—including the lid—measuring 136mmx215mmx84mm

• Also, we have a few other cell size trays to first start your plants off right before moving up to this bigger size,
