You might be able to reuse them, but I wouldnt bother. They just get too dirty and gunked up after a grow. They're not expensive though, 5 pots for 13 bucks is honestly probably cheaper than getting 5x 7 gallon plastic pots from the store haha.
You need to use a tray that's a bit wider than the fabric pots. Most of the water drains out the bottom like a normal pot, but some will definitely leak out the sides of the pot. So the bigger tray will catch that for you. It can make it harder to fully saturate all of the soil each watering, but I never actually had issues because of that.
Here is a picture of a plant that I LST'd using the U stakes. Sorry for the bad pic, it's all i could find haha. You can see it's super well trained and still fairly small. It wouldnt be possible to LST a plant that size so well by tying the branches to the sides of the pot :)
And I found the exact trays I use with those 7 gallon pots.

Pricey aye? They're really good trays though. Not like the shitty ones you get when you buy a plant from the nursery. It's really robust.
