Is there an individual harvest/product item limit? I notice that I have no more than 200,000,000 of aluminum, and several of the flavored waters. I've never seen an amount above that figure. I couldn't find a specific limit listed anywhere. My overall storage for harvests/products is at 75%.

Hi VeraN :)
The individual limit is 200,000,000. When you get to that amount, then no matter you continue storing the product, crop, fish etc. they will not go to your storage.
If you go to the Trade market, you will see that you have different percentage for you to sell part of those products.
Once you sell, then the new ones you send to storage will increase the amount. Just try to check your Harvest&Products storage at least once a week to see if any of the products have reached the limit or is near to it.
Remember you can set the A/Z filter to Stored amount.
The percentage for 75% you see is for the total amount stored in Harvest&Products storage.

Hi Karlene,
I moved your post from Suggestions to the Help & Support thread about storage.
You already have a way in the market to sell the excess animals you have in your storage. Open your storage in the market to sell items. Click on the Items button at the top and then choose Animals for the section. Then you can sell them from there.

Hi Gorby,
I moved your post to the Help & Support thread about storage as this has nothing to do with the current release.
Please try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close that as it is done.
If your farm is open close it. Then reopen and try again.

Hi Taz
Don't know if this is where I should be putting this. I noticed I have 164 items showing in the non ingredient list which shouldn't be there. They are ingredients or items which can be sold in service facilities.
I'm not sure where to put this as it is sort of a storage issue, but not really either.
Can you check into this? It's sort of a interesting thing, and I'd rather have them sold through my services first and clean up the extra items every so often on my own.
Thanks.

Hi Karin,
Taz is not available at this time.
Can you please scroll down below the game screen and the yellow box under it and see if you are in Build 630.
If you are seeing items that can be stocked in service facilities that you own, have you also checked that those service facilities are not missing?
When you are selling at market are you using the non-ingredients filter or the non-ingredients (for me) filter.
Please list a few examples of products that are showing up as a non-ingredient.

Hi iceberg :)
Sorry there was nobody here to answer you earlier.
If you were on the farm where your pigsty is placed when you stored your pigs, then they were into the pigsty not your item storage.
It has been always that way. The store button for animals in your gift box, sends them to their sheds in that farm if they still have space to add more.

Hi Baskat,
I moved your post to the Help & Support thread about the storage as this has nothing to do with the current release.
The zip is still in your storage on your farms. Make sure you are on the Harvests & Products tab of your storage. The Zip does not apply to the Items storage.
If you are not seeing it in your Harvests & Products, try restarting your farms.

I can no longer add any items to my storage building. It says I must add neighbors. I have added several and still cannot. I have removed a LOT of items from the storage too. Does it not free up space to used again?
I know there is a super storage now available but again, is the regular one not refreshed when items are removed to "make space"?
I use storage to put facilities in when I am permanently moving them to another farm and now I cannot. I also put flowers, trees in storage to move to a new farm. Nothing works now.
Update: I can put a horse into storage and take it out, but I took a train track out of storage as a test and tried to put it back into storage and got the message I need to add neighbors. I only have about 8 neighbor spots left so I hate to use them up.
Thank you!

Hi mrsdtracy,
I moved your post to the thread about storage on the farm. You say you only have a few neighbor spots left so I am wondering what set of farms you are talking about. Please provide the ID for the farms you are talking about. You can find that at the bottom of your farms page.
What you are talking about is your Item storage. You only have 17 neighbors on the set of farms related to your email address registered here in the forums, so only 355 item storage capacity. If that is the correct farms then you still have over 100 neighbors you can add.
If you look at the Item storage in the upper left corner it tells you your capacity and usage of that storage.
You can either add more neighbors to increase that storage if you need or purchase the Super Storage buildings. The Super Storage increases your item storage by double for the first one and by 4 time for the next one which is a lot faster than adding neighbors.

I'm not sure what's happening but when i empty my storage of big ponds and refresh the game, the same amount of ponds are still there.
It may sound good but it means I cant put anything else into storage as I'm at my limit.

Hi Calimba,
I moved your post to the thread about storage.
How are you removing them from your storage? Are you putting them on your farm or selling them?
I see 329 Big Lakes in your storage as the only waters in it. I do not see any Big Ponds in there. You have a total of 1135 spaces in your storage and 839 used giving you 296 spaces to use.

Hi Lessonlady,
I moved your post to the thread about storage.
To move something out of storage you must have a place on the farm slightly larger than the item you are trying to move from storage to a farm. Hiding things on the farm to move others to the farm does not work for that either as the game knows something is sitting there. Secondly your farm must not have reached the limit on how many things you have on the farm.
What are you trying to move and to what farm are you trying to place it on?

Hi Puzzles,
The limit in the Harvest & Products for an item it 200 million. However, the overall limit will not allow for every product to have 200 million. You can tell where you are for the overall limit by the percentage is in the upper left corner of the page. That limit is not a specific amount as it depends on a lot of variables.

I have several Long Cattle cars on trains in addition to other ways I've accumulated many thousands more cows than I need or want. It would be nice to have a way to sell what we don't need in bulk. Unless I'm missing something, the only way now is to take them out of storage one at a time and put them on a farm, then use the excavator tool to sell them. I know they aren't taking up valuable storage space, but they aren't doing any good either.
For 86,000 cows, that's a bit too much work :) For the time being, I took the Long Cattle car off the trains, but I still have all those animals in storage.
thanks

Hi KC,
I moved your post to the Help & Support thread about the storage.
There is a way already to sell the excess animals and other things from your storage in the trading market.
Go to the trading market and click to sell in the menu just as you would for selling from your storage. There are 3 tab buttons across the top of that page for Harvests & Products, Gifts, and Items. Click on the Items tab and then set the filter to Animals. From that you can sell those animals.

I bought a purple 12x12 Logging Truck on another of my accounts and I keep getting the "please retry later" message over and over even after trying clearing the FT memcache. He has 219 spaces and 55 under usage when looking under Tools in his storage. I have tried clicking the Logging Truck and storing it from the drop down menu, storing it using the individual tool and noticed the Tower Crane will not work because the tools disappear from view. The same is happening with the 12x12 flower harvester.

Ardelle
Hi MammaKanode,
There are two limits. One is the total overall storage limit of which you can see the percentage in the upper left corner of your storage. The other is the maximum limit of 200 million for any one crop. If you go over the 200 million then the game will lower your amount for that crop back to the 200 million.
Please note you will not be able to keep 200 million of every crop because that would put you over the total overall amount you can keep in storage.

I cannot find my hibiscus amount in my flowers. Has something changed. It is no where to be found. When I go to quest manager, it says I have 2 million in storage but when I look I cannot find hibiscus anywhere, not in flowers for sale or in my storage or gifts. What is going on. I cannot complete my quest without the hibiscus. I harvested all my flowers but nothing.

Hibiscus is not a flower.

Hi HansD :)
If you want to sell your animals in storage:
Click in Map and then in Trade Market.
Accept the pop up to sell items.
When you get the new screen, click in ITEMS button to turn it orange.
Then set the screen to Animals
You will be able to sell them All or Half.

Hi bbarksda :)
If you are talking about your item storage, you have all tools to increase capacity and enough neighbors.
I just checked your data and your capacity is 18,440 and you only used 4,082

Mary, I am not talking about basic storage. I am talking about overall storage; where all of my crops, trees, flowers, facility outputs, etc go. I am at 86% and rising rapidly. I have to continually zip to make more room. Is that a suggestion or a problem. Please tell me what to do.

Hi Bill :)
Sorry I misunderstood your question.
When you use the ZIP option you are not losing products, you are only converting large and small boxes i to regular ones to continue using them in your factories.
As large boxes have more value you also are credited with coins.
You can read more about limits, in the following link:
