It’s not recommended... however if it’s hot and you’re sure it will evaporate quickly any way, it shouldn’t be a problem. Just don’t allow it to sit for days on end in water

It's possible to use the tray method but you have to be careful that your plants don't sit in water for extended periods as that could cause the roots to rot. I water my plants in trays and let them soak up the runoff, but the trays are dry by the next day.
