They have a pyramidal shape such that the area of ??the base is slightly less than the open top. Secondly, each of its corners is raised, so that the base of the pots are raised allowing the air circulates through the base, such that the aeration of the substrate is improved, favoring the correct feeding of the plants.

The black square plastic plates offer many uses that experienced growers know how to take advantage of. Above all, with utilities related to irrigation and fertilization.

When we invest in fertilizers with the idea that our plants grow well, it is essential to analyze the leftover water every time we water. Measuring the pH again, for example, will give us an idea of ??the pH value of the root zone. This value, adjusted to 6.5 and 7, is what we really have to look for in the water collected in the dish to be sure of the acidity of the water allows maximum absorption of nutrients.

Similarly, measuring the Ec, of the water collected in the dish, and contrasting the result with the previously measured in the preparation of the nutrient solution, we will know exactly the level of fertilization demand of our plants.

This is a very effective way to control and save on fertilization, but care must be taken to dispense small quantities in order not to leave excess water in the dish. Otherwise you could have root fungus problems.
