During use
- XL565 Capillary Mat – 50 × 36 cm – Standard capillary mat sold separately to replace the version included in this set.
- XL565 Watertight Tray – 56.5 × 41.5 cm – Watertight XL565 tray without a mat, available separately.
Match moisture and water supply to the species, container and location. The tray does not replace regular checks.
The mat distributes water by capillary action. The specification of up to 3 L/m² describes the mat, not a guaranteed watering duration.
The grid/culture plate for square pots does not fit this tray. Similar outer dimensions alone do not establish compatibility with other accessories.
Handling guidance
- Use water-bearing parts on a suitable surface and keep escaping water away from electrical equipment.
- Avoid overfilling and persistently wet root zones.
Cleaning and storage
Remove plant and growing-medium residues, clean with water and dry before longer storage. Check for damage before reuse.
Empty, dry trays can be stacked for compact storage.
