I am currently looking to design and print a multi functional drip tray, would love to hear your inputs as plant parents:) Here's how it works:

The tray allows for top or bottom water (in the primary reservoir) using fresh or runoff from another top watered plant. When top watering, the aerated plate is tilted at an angle by the spring valve which allows for better drainage and breaking of the perched water table effect preventing root rot. For bottom watering, the aerated plate is detachable. All moving parts are easily detachable for cleaning. Regardless, once done you simply latch the plate down which in turn opens the valve allowing runoff to drain into a cup without having to lift the pots at all! The higher volume capacity also means you wouldn't have to worry about overflow or leakage from overwatering.

Just trying my luck here 😅 I am currently looking to design and print a multi functional drip tray, would love to hear your inputs as plant parents:) Here's how it works:

For bottom watering, the aerated plate is detachable. Regardless, once done you simply latch the plate down which in turn opens the valve allowing runoff to bypass the vertical arm into a cup for a remote watering experience. The higher volume capacity also means you wouldn't have to worry about overflow or leakage from overwatering.

When top watering, the aerated plate is tilted at an angle by the spring valve which allows for better drainage and breaking of the perched water table effect preventing root rot. For bottom watering, the aerated plate is detachable. Regardless, once done you simply put the pots back onto the grooves on the plate (customizable for fit and aesthetics) and latch it down which in turn opens the valve allowing runoff to bypass the vertical arm into a cup for a remote watering experience.
