Better Alternatives
Pebble Trays
A safer way to catch water while improving airflow and humidity.
How to make one:
Use a shallow tray larger than your pot.
Fill it with pebbles or small stones.
Add water just below the pebble surface.
Place your planter on top so it sits above the water.
Other Options
Self-watering planters for controlled moisture.
Plant stands to elevate pots and prevent surface damage.
Gravel or coarse sand at the pot’s base for better drainage.
Well-draining soil mixes with perlite or vermiculite.
Adjust watering schedules to match plant type and environment.
