You can put ping pong balls in the saucer and then put the plant on top. Idr who I saw do that but it was on here. Lol
I started doing it too. That way my plants don’t sit in the water and I can turn the plants easy. I don’t use a trellis because of this reason. I just use Bamboo sticks if I need to hold em up but usually my lst during veg usually take care of the spacing between buds anyways. Lol

i dont know the answer to your issue, but if you do need to lift them, you can get a cookie cooling rack and put it between the saucer and the pot bottom. that would just lift a tiny bit, but the pot bottom could breathe and not sit in moisture. walmart has them, and not too much money

When I water my scrog, I sponge out the excess. You can use a wet vac too.
Or, you could lift them above the tray on some kind of grate; something like this next time.

hmmm... i was thinking about this, and watering some houseplants when i realized that for my dieffenbachia i put gravel in the dish then the pot on top of that, so it never sits in water, its picky that way. so maybe toss some gravel in the saucer and that would work and free and easy!

Hello growers..
I'm working with 6 plants in a 4×4 tent in 7 gal fabric pots (35% perlite, 65% soil) and bought plant saucers to sit under my plants and catch the runoff...
My problem is, I'm a FIRST time grower and didn't realize that the runoff gets rid of buildup and allows the soil to kind of "wash itself out" and now im concerned that the buildup in the runoff will just soak back into the plant and kill it.
As of now, they are doing okay but im looking for expert help on if its mandatory or necessary for me to lift em up to finish the last 2 months of the grow...The only reason im not wanting to lift em is because they are in the middle of growing into the scrog net and I was trying not to mess with them...

Any advice is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

If the do need to be lifted, what the hell should I use?! 7 gal fabric pots with 16inch saucers underneath...

THX!! IDK WHY I DIDNT THINK TO RAISE EM BEFORE HAND...LIVE AND LEARN I GUESS!

I use these pot elevators, they work great. Get someone to slide them in when you lift the pots, won't have to lift much.
