Setting up an 8x4 flood tray. What should I use to catch the runoff?

DTW means drain to waste so runoff goes into the sewer.

Are you maybe thinking of ebb and flow where you catch the runoff and pump it back into the tray on a timer?

Set the plants on a sheet of corrugated plastic at an angle. Put a rain gutter on the end also at an angle so it catches in a pan. Then dump pan or pump it....

These are about $12 each but you can run pvc pipe wherever you need I collect in gallon jugs and use runoff to water house plants and flowers - please ignore the mess tent needs cleaned before I start the next flower run

i just use a rubbermaid tote, will be pumping the shit out this time instead of hauling it out daily or every other day. moving three gallons of water is a pain in the ass and i'm lazy.

Cheap condensate pump and bucket. Like $40 and it will automatically pump it out and down the drain for you
