HEMLI HOME 1020 Seed Starting Trays
Five black trays · no drainage holes
Buyer feedback ↓These HEMLI HOME trays hold pots, seed inserts or runoff in a rigid base without drainage holes. The useful detail is the full outside footprint: the familiar 1020 name does not tell you exactly how much shelf space the rim needs.

THE QUICK TAKE
Is it right for you?
Buy these for catching runoff or bottom-watering pots with drainage. A rigid tray is also easier to move than a loose collection of small pots. Measure the shelf against the outside rim, then check the smaller interior before buying an insert.
Choose a different tray if you need water to drain away on its own. This version holds it. The 1020 name also does not guarantee that every dome or cell insert fits; compare the actual inner dimensions first.
01 / BUYING NOTES
Before you buy.
A solid bottom catches water.
Use it beneath pots or inserts that drain. Manage the water left in the tray rather than assuming a no-hole base is a self-draining planter.

02 / AMAZON REVIEWS
The buyers’ view.
Buyers describe stiff trays that resist flexing, with repeat purchasers reporting that theirs still hold up well. One finds them convenient for carrying several pots together, but another notes that the deep troughs retain standing water even after the pot bottoms are dry and swaps trays to deal with it.

What the sources say.
The listing separates outside dimensions from the smaller inside space and identifies this pack as trays without holes. Check insert fit separately from the shelf footprint.
Extension describes no-hole flats as saucers beneath pots or draining inserts. Bottom watering lets water wick into the growing mix, which should stay moist rather than saturated.
