The AutoPot Tray2Grow is a gravity-fed, completely passive irrigation system that keeps your plants hydrated on their terms, not yours. No pumps. No electricity. No forgetting. It uses a precision AQUAvalve5 to release water only when the tray runs dry, so roots never sit in standing water and you never come home to stressed plants. Whether you're starting seeds, running microgreens, or growing in fabric bags, the Tray2Grow handles all of it from a single tray. It's the most versatile product AutoPot has ever made.

Side by side
How it stacks up against hand-watering
Hand-watering / basic drip timers
- Requires daily attention. Miss a day and plants stress.
- Electricity or battery-powered timers can fail at the worst time
- Over- or under-watering is common without close monitoring
- Locked into one method. Can't switch between seed trays and grow bags.
- Nutrient runoff and water waste add up quickly
- Setup can be fiddly, messy, and hard to level correctly
AutoPot Tray2Grow
- Fully automated. Gravity and capillary action do the work.
- Zero electricity needed. No pumps, no timers, nothing to plug in.
- AQUAvalve5 delivers water only when the tray is dry. No guesswork.
- Five watering methods: seeds, microgreens, pots, grow bags, coco slabs
- Closed-loop system minimizes runoff and dramatically cuts water waste
- Spirit levels and grommet fittings included. Levels perfectly every time.
What makes it different
Built for how growers actually work
One tray, any growing method 5 methods
Seed trays, microgreens, small pots, grow bags, coco slabs. Switch between capillary spikes and capillary matting to support any setup without buying a different system.
Zero electricity required
Gravity does the heavy lifting. The AQUAvalve5 uses a simple float mechanism with no pumps, no timers, no batteries. Nothing to fail during a heat wave or a power outage.
AQUAvalve5 demand watering
Water only enters the tray when it runs dry, not on a timer. Plants drink what they need, when they need it. No standing water. No root rot from overwatering.
Dramatically less water waste 50% less water
The closed-loop system recirculates unused water back through the valve. No runoff trays to empty, no nutrients lost down the drain. Just efficient, targeted delivery.
Gravity-fed from any reservoir
Connect to one of the included FlexiTank options or hook straight into your existing reservoir. The tray sits below, no lifting or pumping required.
Compact, bench-ready footprint
At 44" × 16.2", the Tray2Grow fits standard growing benches, rolling racks, and grow tent shelves. Spirit levels and all hardware included. Level it once and you're done.

How the system works
1
Fill the reservoir
Water (with or without nutrients) goes into your reservoir. Gravity pulls it toward the tray. No pump needed.
2
AQUAvalve5 takes over
Once the tray runs dry, the float valve opens and lets in just enough water to fill it, then closes. No timers, no sensors to calibrate.
3
Capillary action feeds roots
Spikes or matting wick water up into your substrate, bottom-up on demand. Roots stay consistently moist without sitting in standing water.
4
You just refill the tank
The system runs itself until the reservoir is empty. Check it every few days. Refill less often if you sized up to a larger tank.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Yes, and it's probably the most beginner-friendly automated system we carry. There's no programming, no app, no schedule to set. You fill the reservoir, connect the tubing, level the tray with the included spirit levels, and you're done. The valve handles everything else. Most growers have it running in under 30 minutes. We also have the full setup PDF and if you get stuck, call us at 716-217-0353 and we'll walk you through it.
It's designed for outdoor use. The tray includes an overflow plug that prevents the tray from filling beyond a safe level, so a heavy rain won't drown your plants. Fabric grow bags drain quickly, and as long as your substrate has decent drainage, you'll be fine. We'd still suggest going with a 25-gallon or larger tank outdoors so you're not refilling constantly in warm weather.
That depends mainly on how large a reservoir you choose. For seed starting and microgreens indoors with a 13-gallon tank, most growers refill once a week. If you're running larger fabric bags outdoors in a hot climate, you may need to refill every 2–3 days with a 13-gallon tank . Or move up to the 25 or 60-gallon FlexiTank for true set-it-and-forget-it coverage. If you tell us your setup we can give you a better estimate.
Both work fine. The system is fully compatible with liquid nutrient solutions. Just mix your nutrients in the reservoir at your normal dilution rate and the valve delivers it to the tray on demand the same way it would with plain water. The included golf filter helps keep particles from clogging the valve. Rinse it periodically, especially if you're running thicker solutions.
Here's a practical guide: If you're primarily doing seed starting or microgreens indoors and can check on things every week, the 13-gallon FlexiTank is plenty. If you're growing in multiple bags outdoors in a warm climate, or you want longer intervals between refills, go with 25 gallons minimum. The 60-gallon FlexiTank is for larger operations or anyone who wants to set it and check it once every week or two. When in doubt, size up. A bigger tank never hurts, and you can always partially fill it.
Both are included with the standard kit. You get the capillary matting for seed trays, microgreen trays, and pots, as well as 10 capillary spikes for grow bags and soil bags. You don't need to buy accessories to get started with any of these methods. The only additional items are the optional microgreen trays (4-pack) and the raised planter box, which are add-ons if you need them.

Good, but a little spendy and lower capacity for value
Color: Black
I have used this plenty at work anytime I forget to charge my Samsung S25 Ultra (which has a 5,000mah battery) or am using it intensely, often for work. The charge time is actually the new Qi 2, so it's not bad. It's not a fast charger, but it's super good enough to not bring a cable. It's slim enough to not care as well.
I am a nerd and keep it in my cargo pocket which also helped save the day for some poor lady who needed to charge her iPhone, so I lent that to her for a short bit. It's super unubtrusive to keep on you so it's handy if or when you need it, or need to help.
I like Anker as a brand, and lean to them for battery banks. I have several of their batteries, so I figured I will eat the premium to get the portability. I like the form a lot, and the magnetc retention is rock solid. Charge speed is fair, and heat isn't what I would call concerning if this isn't something you do with frquency. A 5,000mah battery will not go far in real world use. One full recharge, which is perfectly suitable. The price is what will hurt. You can get a conventional bank for the same with much more capacity. It won't be as slim and likely won't be wireless (or as fast). I rather like this battery but am hesitant to recommend it. It really is a case of do you want slim and portable or capacity and budget? It is a solid product, however you decide.

Best travel MagSafe Charger
Color: Black
I recently purchased the Anker Nano MagSafe Portable Charger, Ultra-Slim 5,000mAh, and it has quickly become one of my favorite everyday tech accessories. The compact design and reliable charging performance make it incredibly convenient for keeping my iPhone powered throughout the day, whether I’m commuting, traveling, or simply away from an outlet for extended periods.
One of the first things I noticed was how slim and lightweight the charger feels. It attaches securely to the back of the phone with MagSafe, making it easy to use while still comfortably fitting in a pocket or small bag. Unlike bulkier power banks, this one maintains a sleek profile that doesn’t add unnecessary weight or thickness.
Charging performance has been very reliable overall. The 5,000mAh capacity provides a helpful boost when my battery starts running low, and the magnetic connection stays firmly in place during use. I also appreciate that the charger delivers consistent power without overheating, even during longer charging sessions.
The build quality is excellent, which is something I’ve come to expect from Anker products. The materials feel durable and premium, and the minimalist design looks clean and modern. It arrived well-packaged and immediately gave the impression of being a high-quality accessory.
Another feature I appreciate is how simple and convenient it is to use. There’s no complicated setup involved—just snap it onto the back of the phone and charging begins automatically. It’s especially useful when traveling or during busy days when carrying cables around can be inconvenient.
After using it regularly, I’ve been very satisfied with its reliability and portability. It keeps my phone charged when I need extra power most, and the ultra-slim design makes it easy to carry everywhere without noticing the extra bulk.
Overall, the Anker Nano MagSafe Portable Charger, Ultra-Slim 5,000mAh is a dependable and thoughtfully designed portable charger. It offers reliable charging performance, excellent portability, and premium build quality. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a compact and convenient MagSafe-compatible power bank for everyday use.

A really great portable charger
Color: Golden
Works great with my Samsung Galaxy S25 in a magnetic case. I love the small form factor, which means I can keep it on my phone to charge while I'm using the phone when I need to. It also means it's incredibly easy to take any time I leave the house, not just when I travel.
It does get pretty warm, but I find that keeping the phone face down helps that a lot. And of course using the phone while it's charging makes it hotter.
One note if You're like me and you've never used one of these: there's a small button on the side that activates or deactivates the magnet. I thought the magnet had died because it was no longer attaching to my phone. Then I randomly held the button down and it snapped right back on. It's a useful feature now that I know that it's there, so I don't leave the magnet on when it might be near swipeable cards in my bag. Funny they don't mention anything about that in all the product images, but now I know.

Heat and Charging Complaints Are Unjustified
Color: White
Good product overall. I was going to give it 4 stars because it hangs slightly off the bottom of my iPhone 15 Pro but I realized it says 16/17. Those models might have the MagSafe ring slightly higher on the phone in which case it would fit cleaner.
I was worried about Heat after reading the reviews. All inductive charging systems generate waste heat and all charging generates waste heat. It’s nothing extreme here. If it’s in your pocket without air flow around it, it gets quite warm on the phone for sure. In my hand, using the phone for a while plane flight, there’s enough flow that it’s just a bit warm.
Battery life is as advertised. It’s somewhere around a charge or so, I didn’t check this scientifically. Plenty to keep you topped up through a cross country air trip. It’s very small and much nicer to have on the phone than some other models I’ve borrowed.
Reviews have some complaints that it “doesn’t charge the phone”. That’s a goofy complaint. If the phone is dormant it will add charge percentage. If you’re streaming and emailing, on Bluetooth, and WiFi all at once you’re going to use power about as fast as it can supply without it spiking temperature. I was very happy to just sit at 75% my whole flight while constantly using my phone. It doesn’t matter if it added percentage, you don’t get this to charge your phone, you get this to extend the battery and it does just that.
If you can leave your phone out of your pocket where it can breath/cool a bit you’ll be happy with this. Good product and some seem to be expecting it to cheat physics.

Quality 100W capable all-in-one USB-C hub from Anker
Style: 7-in-2 4K@30Hz, Style: 7-in-2 4K@30Hz
I recently added a 16" MacBook Pro to the family and with the extra size/weight wanted to slim down on carrying adapters. I also have a 13" MacBook Pro (2018) and wanted something that would work for both of these without any shortfalls.
The Anker delivers and works flawlessly on both of my MacBooks.
Charging - It offers full rate charging on either unit and so far - hasn't gotten all that warm in the process. I expected a bake fest and me returning it, so was surprised there.
Plugs/Ports - I skipped the Hyper-hub craze as I just never liked the fit into my MacBooks. So this is the first dual-port type device I have used on my Mac's, but it fits very well and doesn't feel like anything needs to be forced to work. Likewise on the receiving side, the card slots are friendly and you won't lose your cards, but it still holds them well. The USB-C ports respond well and have worked with all charger cables and dongles that I have. The USB-A's are classic Anker quality.
Thinking about this more...I think I actually like plugging and unplugging things in this. There are some brands (cough: UNI) that I wonder if "this is the time" when it breaks on me or keeps my cable end. So far so good on the Anker.
Peripherals and what works - I have only used portables on it a few times so I do not have much testing with NVME there yet, but SSD is just fine and works as normal.
Only (1) port of this has Displayport active on it (the charge port). So if you are plugging in two screens to one side of the MacBook - that will need to change. At the same time, if you can convert one of those to HDMI you can connect the HDMI and then Displayport (via USB-C) over the charge port.
In addition to fitting the ports well I should also mention - on the 13" MacBook Pro and Air this should lie mostly flush with the work surface you are on and the laptop edge. On the 16" MacBook Pro it does have a little gap under it due to the height of that unit. But it still does not protrude past the top edge and won't bug you if you brush your hand over it.
TL;DR:
At the time of this review I am about a week in. and have removed all the "docks" from my office and home so I can give this a decent test.
At 60$ it is more expensive than other options, but performs very well for my needs.
Cons: price I guess. I wouldn't mind a GigE Ethernet port on it at the same price point of 60$, or wait for it on sale if you don't care about the port. Big ANKER on the top of It sort of annoying, if I am picking nits.
Pros: Quality interface, known brand, works well on multiple years of MacBook with no weirdness or driver problems. Compatible with latest models and software. Color matches the Apple Space Gray acceptably.
I hope you found this review helpful, if not - leave a comment and let me know how we can change that!
Thanks for reading my review,
Chris
