# Question: I have these pots from target and wanted to know if anyone…

_Posted by Jess on 2025-09-08_

Question:  
I have these pots from target and wanted to know if anyone has tried to detatch the “self watering” tray… target claims it’s built-in but I’m wondering if I could take it off and take a look

Yes you can! I always detach mine. It just pops on and off.

Really?!!!??! I’ve tried to detach it before yet can’t seem to do it, I swear I’m not weak

It’s definitely not easy sometimes! It’s on there pretty tight usually.

I have this in blue and it does detach but you’ll need a plate underneath to catch the water
