Thank You For Growing With Us

After an incredible journey, Annaboto has stopped operations. But your grow doesn't have to stop. We built something special, and we want to make sure you can keep growing for as long as your Annaboto runs.

Your Annaboto should continue to work as expected. Make sure your machine has the latest software update and that you have the latest version of the app installed for cloud-less functionality.

Below you'll find everything you need to maintain your machine, build your own nutrient cartridges, replace grow pod components, and troubleshoot any issues — all on your own terms.
