You can find plenty of seed starting kits that include soil, seeds, and plastic trays for single-use, but if you are looking for a self-watering planter that you can use year after year, we recommend the Judith Bloom Seed Starter Tray.

The plant can access the collected water with its roots when needed. Any excess water collects at the bottom of the reservoir or drains out the drainage holes.

It is styled to resemble copper but at a fraction of the cost and with the convenient addition of the self-watering feature.

The frost-free resin accounts for a higher price point, but this quality material should hold up for the long haul, so we think it’s still a great value. You can also grab one in each size for a coordinating set, although you'll need to purchase each one separately. Earning the top spot on our list, this product comes in three sizes (small, medium, and large), with the largest suitable for outdoor shrubs and larger plants, something that's hard to find at this price point.
