I have been growing my seedlings using the square 2 1/4" and 3" peat pots. They make transplanting easy and clean. The problem is that if I am forgetful about watering them (from the top) from time to time and their large surface area tends to dry them out quite a bit. They are put into large plastic growing trays with a drainage hole. Can I put them into trays without drainage and keep about a 1/2" of water in the tray. Will the water wick up into the pots and provide adequate moisture or would it tend to drown the seedlings. TIA, Richard
