Hi,
the farmbot isn’t a bargain - so why you don’t have an affiliate program or i just missed it?
Its not a bargain because it cost money to develop new technology. Can it be built cheaper? Yes. But If you want to support a group of people developing a new technology you would buy it from them in hopes they can keep making it better. If you can’t afford to support them monetarily they made it open source so you can build it yourself.
