5X5 Shallow Microgreen Trays

Good service.

Love using these in combo with the mini 20 soil blocker as it allows me to get the watering below benefits and I also do not have to worry about different seeds having different germination rates when placed on the same tray (as I can just remove the 5×5 tray out from under the dome as each tray germinates). Also works great with microgreens, for the quick growing ones that I don’t need a full 1020 tray of.
