Im not sure if I've read about anyone else with the issue. Though I know I've read about others putting ice cubes in the bowl.
When I did my last grow (was herbs and not all 6 pods were even used) the water was in the 90s the whole time. Had to add ice to bring it down. But it would always go back up.
Anyone have this or know the problem? And how do I fix it?
I've only used the machine maybe 4 grows.

I have read somewhere that some units can run hot. I have not had that issue with any of mine and I have a LOT of Harvests. Contact AG CS, they may be able to do an exchange for you.
Another workaround is to raise the light so it does not get the water too warm. Other then that I do not know what to do. I will see if I can find where I read this and if I do I will post  |

Ok. I had parsley that was growing like a monster so the hood was pretty high. I will message them and see what they have to say.

Well I called and their answer was that when the pump runs (5 min an hr) it could be increasing the temp. Not sure how a 5 min pump cycle could increase water temp from our house temp of 73 to the 84 I was getting. She asked when I was taking the temp, if it was during the pump cycle. I honestly don't know but I doubt everytime I took it that the pump was on. So that's where I'm at, not alot of resolve.

All of my AeroGardens run warm.
I just except it. I also accept the likelihood that the lifespan of my lettuces is probably shorter than I would like ,
