Frequent Water Tray Refilling in Heat: Upgrade Tray Size

Daily Watering Is Normal in Summer

Hot, sunny weather = high evaporation + plant uptake. Daily refills are par for the course.

Reduce Frequency

• Larger trays: cat litter pans, cement mixing tubs (hardware store).
• Kiddie pools (what we use at nursery).
• Light-colored trays reflect heat slightly, but volume matters more.

Don’t stress—just scale up reservoir size.
