Re: [OPEN] Gardening Plants don’t need water or weeding in games

The issue persists when traveling to different lots and back. I was going to test if traveling made a difference on the ones that were working but just now opening the recovered save where it had been "fixed" the problem has already reappeared. It's only progressed a few sim hours since the recovery. I moved her to a new house (selling old furniture, new house bought with game default furniture, and planted a carrot that was able to be watered. I then planted a rose outside, saw the water menu option but left it unwatered and traveled to the bluffs. On returning home the water option is available on the rose, but is missing from the carrot. After watering the rose the menu item no longer exists. Since it was 3 days before the end of fall, I planted a snowdrop and a winter rose to test if they would live, but there has been snow on them pretty much the whole time and I don't know if that counts as watering?
I just also built a greenhouse 6 days in to winter to test the indoor plants. Having saved and come back the next day did not change the inability to water the outdoor plants. So far, the square box planter plants do have the water menu item still (but grey from being freshly watered) after having traveled to my work lot (scientist) and back, but the eco lifestyle vertical planter and the round planter plants both have the option missing. I don't think I checked the other planters immediately after the initial watering, so I planted something new in a round planter to check if the travel mattered, and was unable to water it even the first time after initial planting.
I have not played with the game in bugged state long enough to let the plants die if they were going to, even in my prior save file. I used the testing cheats menu to "water" them so I didn't lose them before I decided I needed to look into reporting the problem

@hooverlm Ok. moving your post over to the other thread then. That has several symptoms I think. It's a bit of a long thread

Also send your send to EA as asked here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/OPEN-Gardening-Plants-don-t-need-water-or-weeding-in-games/m-p/8677678#M121343

I'm not sure they still need saves for this particular gardening issue but as said, there are many and they've asked for saves on other threads.

I'm having the same problem, but I don't have 4 season, just the regular sims. not sure what is happening.

I'm having the same issue. Does not own/have installed Seasons. I guess it affects base game owners /no seasons/...
