seed tray

Planting starter flat

A seed tray is a shallow rectangular container used for starting plants from seed indoors or in a greenhouse.

The tray holds soil or growing medium and typically has drainage holes.

Seed trays may be divided into individual cells or left open for sowing multiple seeds: I started my tomatoes in a seed tray on the windowsill.
