The water adding port for my Farm is starting to grow things and get pretty gross. I don't even use it since I have Aerovoirs. What are you guys with Farms doing to cover it?

Hi Q! In anticipated this problem when I bought my first Farm+, so I actually designed and used 3D printers to create a custom cover for the water port on Farm models. You can see more about it here: aerogardenaddicts.com/thread/814/cover-farms-water-portFor the cost of shipping I'd be happy to send some your way. Just let me know if you'd be interested. Others here are using them and can testify that they work fairly well (I think). |

I ran into the same problem earlier this year. I just cut a piece of photo backing material to cover the hole. It worked well, but it wasn't very pretty.

When I got my Farms, I was familiar with the issue as many of you had mentioned it.
I was surprised that they hadn't included port covers as my Farms were not the first batch of Farms that they sold.

It still baffles me. I’d even be willing to improve slightly on my design and give the CAD file to AeroGrow if they would start including them with new purchases. |

Maybe it is time for them to get some "suggestions". If enough, they may create them. But I can only imagine what they will charge  |

Their customer service is so good, I can't imagine that they would charge for them. (IMHO)
