The Botanicare OD Black Tray 4x6 Between a 4x4 and a Full Table
Four by six is the size growers land on when a 4x4 has run out of room and a 4x8 will not fit the wall. Outside it measures 48 by 72 in, inside 46 by 70 in, and it holds 75 gallons against a 6 in sidewall. That depth is what separates it from a catchment tray: it can actually flood rather than just catch what drains.
Draining a 4x6 Grow Tray Without Puddles in the Corners
The diagonal grid does the work here, running water across the tray toward the fitting instead of trapping it along the seams. Give the stand a little fall toward that fitting. The tray then empties clean between cycles. Six feet of unsupported plastic will bow if the bench only carries the ends, so the frame underneath matters as much as the tray does.
Key Features
- 48 x 72 in outside: The measurement that decides bench and tent fit, since OD trays are named for their outside footprint.
- 75 gallon capacity: Room for a full flood and drain cycle on a six foot bench without topping the wall.
- 6 in sidewall: Deep enough for tall containers and real saturation, not just runoff catchment.
- Diagonal drainage grid: Moves water toward the drain fitting and keeps pots up out of what has already drained.
- Capped black ABS: Blocks light off the water surface, which is half the algae battle in a closed room.
