You can use anything even a plate, bowl. You should always suck up the runoff right after, a shop vac will be your best friend as soon as they stop drinking and it sits they will sit for a moment then start reabsorbing whatā€™s in the base as they use whatā€™s in the media, and that can cause many more issues, and excess water sitting in bases will also cause RH spikes as well

You donā€™t want them from Amazon. They carry them here in USA but $18

How about like a large deep pie dish or takeout container, even a roasting tray! Like the disposable tinfoil kind you know? Just suggesting since youā€™re having bad luck finding the other stuff on Amazon, maybe more readily available to you?

If you need it for aeration put a few sticks/dowels in an x across the top of your previous base , strong enough to hold the pots, voila. A couple bucks max

Sometimes when I go away for long periods of time I will deliberately put my plants in 2 inches of water so they survive.

You know how many grows Iā€™ve seen destroyed by this method . Especially when I used to build grow rooms. Dozens and dozens, not to mention the people just coming for advice

Most definitely. Itā€™s the driving force of this place I feel. Knowledge. And so many knowledgeable people on OG willing to diagnose and help anyone. Itā€™s what made me stick around (among a few other things) but you could quickly see it was different, drama is basically non existent and generosity is so abundant I believe we could turn SCROOGE himself on OG! Mad love for all of you!

Yeah, I think that screen shot shows a 6" saucer. Price also varies by size. I looked long and hard at the time, cheapest I could find.
