Dragon Boat Festival

Have you ever had such an experience? A few pots of small green plants are planted on the desk without a tray. After each watering, the water seeps out from under the flowerpot, wet the documents, and may encounter dangerous power sockets. Several pots of vegetables were planted on the balcony, no trays were used, and the water was everywhere, making the balcony dirty. In this case, just add a tray.

At this time, someone will always stand up and say, "the x x flowers I planted before used a tray, but the flowers didn't grow well and finally died, so this tray can't be used." So is this tray an angel or a demon?

Let's see what the tray does first.

The tray is a container that supports the flowerpot, which is mainly used to hold the excess water exposed after watering, so as to avoid water pollution to the surrounding environment. In other words, green plants planted indoors need to use trays and grow outdoors, so it doesn't matter!

But why is it bad for green plants to use trays? That is because, if the excess water leaking from the bottom of the flowerpot is not poured out in time, it will remain in the tray for a long time, which will hinder the entry and exit of air, make it "difficult to breathe" the roots of green plants, and may "suffocate" if there is too much water. On the other hand, long-term repeated accumulation of water will also make the "waste" excreted by green plants accumulate in the pot, poison the roots of plants, and make the green plants grow worse and worse, or even hang up.

Tip: therefore, whether you use a tray or not depends on the environment in which green plants grow. If you are in indoor maintenance, consider the hygiene problems, it is best to use the tray, and after each watering, pour out the stagnant water in the tray in time, do not let the stagnant water overnight.

If in outdoor maintenance, it is best not to use pallets, so that green plants contact the earth, it is also excellent!
