Water trays


Question
Hello, can I use aluminum foil trays for water trays outside for Venus flytraps, and sarracenia. Thank you

Answer
Hi Ishan,

You can.  Be careful on hot days, however, since they can heat the water more due to their reflectivity.  Overall I would say you are better off if you can get plastic trays.  You'll find quickly that since they are flimsy, you can't move plants in them very well compared to a rigid plastic tray.

Good Growing!
