Bootstrap Farmer 1020 Trays for Microgreens, 10 Trays, with Holes, Black | Extra Strength Reusable Plastic Flats for Seed Starting, Wheatgrass and Hydroponics

Awesome trays, great quality and very durable.

My order was DOA as the bottom few trays were cracked. There was no visible damage to the outside box, so I'd say that it's 20% shipper's fault and 80% seller's fault. The packaging doesn't prevent the trays from cracking or disintegrating on impact. With that said, it's not reasonable to expect plastic trays to be indestructible. These are the single most sturdy trays I have used. They are extremely easy to handle thanks to the thick PP construct. I never get the feeling that the tray would twist or fold. Stacking is also much better when the top tray needs some extra weight. The weight distribution is a lot more even, again, thanks to the "extra strength" construct as marketed. The shallow tray also makes it easier to harvest microgreens. I think I'm switching mostly to the shallow trays once I get a chance to try out the trays with no holes. Now I just wish they would make 10x10 shallow trays, preferably without holes:-D Niche crops really don't need 1020 and 5x5 is only good for decoration.

Good quality will last many seasons. Happy with my purchase although they're not inexpensive compared to other flimsy trays out there. Invest wisely in Bootstrap or replace your flimsy trays every couple years, it adds up!

Sturdy and well built. Would buy again

These trays are great, they are definitely pricey compared to home stores, but the quality is proportionately better. I had trays from menards, and it was impossible to hold the tray with one hand without it breaking. The drainage is also much better on these because there's cross-channels between the rows. The real purpose of this review is to get some customer service from amazon since there's literally no other way to contact them right now. Side note to Amazon: I keep seeing random charges from amazon on my credit card statement. There may or may not be a perfectly good explanation, but there is NO WAY to contact amazon about it. Their help page says "call us by phone" but doesn't list a number. I googled the number and they have an automatic response that basically says "no customer service because of the virus." I'm not saying stop using amazon, I'm just saying be careful and check your bank statements, because I have unaccounted for charges over $50, and you may too.

Pros: extremely sturdy. Fantastic durability. Cons: Not true 10x20. More like 9.75 x 19.75. The problem is pot manufacturers make their pots to perfectly fit 1020 trays in a given pattern. 3x3 (offset), 2x3, 5/4/5, 6/5/6, etc. The tolerances are tight to maximize space. These trays stealing a quarter inch in each direction means many pots won't fit in their intended layout. The grey pots barely fit, because they arent manufactured quite that tight. But the square 2 1/2 pots do not. They are intended to go 4x8, but in reality they fit 3x7 with extra wasted space. I have several other pots and trays. This is only an issue with these trays. The pots are all correct dimensions.

This wheatgrass operation of mine is growing out of control. I decided to get colored trays so I could get a better visual handle on things. If you order the colored pack, the white, and the black (elsewhere on amazon), you can get 7 days of different colors. I just LOVE these trays. I am still in the process of using some of another company's trays, but they are cycling out of my production. When I lift the covers on my wheatgrass, I can see immediately which company made the trays. These trays have just the right hole placement and grooving on the bottom to keep the little wheat berries in line. The other trays are very haphazard, an result in a lot of clumping and less production. Plus, they crack in the middle when lifted carelessly (the only way I know how t do things). Got to keep the chickens happy. Some people actually cut the tops of the wheatgrass for smoothies, then throw the rest to the chickens. I've been to busy for that. 8-) These trays are seriously the best. Besides, I was tired of all black. Don't be afraid of ordering too many. You will have these a VERY long time.

Worked well for microgreens

1er achat chez ce fabricant. Très contente car ils sont très résistants, se lavent bien et peu profond donc idéal pour utilisation micropousses. Ils sont dispendieux mais je crois qu’ils seront durables. Du Canada en raison des frais d’importation et de livraison. le coût était plus avantageux avec Amazon que directement par Boostrap Farmer (USA). Plateau avec trous; semblent suffisants. J’aime la couleur pr les distinguer avec ceux sans trous qui sont noirs!! Les encoches sur les côtés sont très pratiques et donnent une bonne prise pour soulever le plateau quand on les superpose. À l’essai maintenant…

Great and delicious

Great quality

The trays themselves are strong and sturdy and work great for seedlings. However, the way they were packaged by Amazon left them damaged during shipping. Many of the corners were broken off into small pieces, will keep them as it doesn't affect the whole tray. Just be aware that they might arrive damaged due to insufficient packaging. Other than that they are very good trays and I am already using them and work very well.

Great quality, easy to clean
