These trays are very robust & providing good results. Filling them with seed starting mix is a bit messy though, because of the spaces in between the planting cells. Is there any simple way to block off those unused spaces during filling, to make the process more straightforward and less messy?

Will these fit into the extra strength 1020 tray? I prefer not to use the shallow trays if possible.
Yes they will! They will fit but just be aware that since they are the same depth as the tray they're nestling into, that removing them will be a bit more difficult. Placing a finger into the air holes at the top should make lifting them. out fairly easy.
Always a good experience. Fast delivery. Good quality. Excellent results
Grate trays drain well nice thick plastic recommended
I purchased these and the no hole trays. Best purchase I've made. Very sturdy, not lots of wiggly-ness like local stores sell you. Very happy with my purchase.
LOVE these!! So sturdy I don’t think I’ll ever have to buy dumb flimsy one use seed trays again
