I'm not a humidity tray person usually. In this case I'm using them to deflect heat waves from a radiant heating strip under the window away from the ridiculous numbers of aerial roots my cattleyas are producing. The trays extend a few inches beyond the window ledge; it should work reasonably well. So as long as I had the trays I added some river rocks mixed with Aliflor (expanded clay pellets). About the water: algae will be a problem. I'm wondering if it would help to add, like a teaspoon of Clorox per gallon of water I use in the trays? Any thoughts? Thanks! I should say that all of the plants are in saucers or lifted away from contact, but some of the aerial roots will be straggling down into the pebbles.
