Bootstrap Farmer / Seed starting
The no-hole version of Bootstrap Farmer's colored 1020 tray is a catch tray and handling platform for a compatible seed-starting system. It is not interchangeable with the same product line's draining version, so confirm the hole option before checkout. The manufacturer lists polypropylene construction, outer dimensions of 21.1 by 11 inches and a 2.5-inch depth. Its smaller inner-bottom dimensions matter when fitting pots or inserts: a nominal 10-by-20 accessory is not automatically a friction-free fit. Colors can help distinguish sowing batches, but permanent labels are still needed for cultivar and date. Use the tray to contain a controlled watering session or collect drainage, then manage excess water rather than leaving seedlings indefinitely submerged. Choose this model when reusable structure and compatible inserts matter; a smaller inexpensive catch tray may be sufficient if you start only a handful of plants. The linked package contains ten pink no-hole trays; measurements describe each tray.
