Burpee 36 Cell SuperSeed Seed Starting Tray

A: The Burpee 36-Cell SuperSeed Seed Starting Tray typically does not include a lid (humidity dome) because it is designed to be a durable, reusable base system focusing on easy, stress-free seedling removal using soft, food-grade silicone cells. Many users prefer this durable design over the disposable plastic "mini-greenhouses" that include lids. To maintain the required high humidity for germination, you can use the following methods: Plastic Wrap (Saran Wrap): Cover the top of the tray with clear plastic wrap until the seeds sprout. Plastic Shower Caps: A clean, disposable shower cap fits perfectly over the tray, providing a makeshift humidity dome. Plastic Bags: Place the entire tray inside a clear plastic bag. 1020 Tray Compatibility: You can place two of these 36-cell trays into a standard "1020" tray, which can then be covered with a standard long, clear dome. Happy Gardening!
