Dog gone it! Yesterday, I cut down the jalapeno and sandia select plants. Tonight, I went to remove the roots and start the cleaning and sanitizing process. But one of the jalapeno plants was so tough, I snapped off the tube connecting the pump to the grow deck, thus rendering the pump and tube useless. I can order the pumps, but has anyone ordered the tube for a Bounty before. I've done this before. I've been robbing Peter to pay Paul, so to speak. I need 3 or 4 of them.

What Bounty do you have? Is it the older version or the newer version? Can you post a picture of the piece you're looking for? I may have one.

Mike, if it's a clean break, you can use contact cement to repair it. Cheap fix.
Otherwise, it is great that you have donor machines to cannibalize.
(That's what the Navy called it to fix planes with parts from other planes when I was a Navy wife.)  |

Something like this? Harvest NozzleThis is for a Harvest so a little short but if it's the part you need I'll see if I can design one. |

<<I can order the pumps, but has anyone ordered the tube for a Bounty before. I've done this before. I've been robbing Peter to pay Paul, so to speak. I need 3 or 4 of them.>> Call Customer Service. I hear they do indeed have replacement parts for most things, but it is a Call-In to order situation. Not listed online. Calling is a pain, but, hey, if it gets the machines functioning again...  |

I contacted them through Facebook. They are sending replacements. Yes, that is the tube. For a Bounty it is longer and shaped a bit different.
