^Don't blame you there @Rhiannon58 . First time I planted the "Forbidden Fruit" I had NO idea it would give me a plant baby (in all my years of playing the game since day one - you can tell I didn't have my sims do much gardening. :p ). And this particular sim was part of one of my stories and was not intended to have a baby, especially when he wasn't married yet and still single! :grimace: So after he pulled that plant baby up out of the ground I was like, :scream: "So THAT'S how plant sims come about in this game!" :lol:

I promptly exited the game without saving...I lost a bit of progress, but he couldn't have that plant baby and I didn't have the heart to "get rid of it" in any way. :(

I did try it once but only because I like to try most things at least once but, once done, decided it wasn't for me. The plant sim that resulted broke my heart because she was listed as the daughter of the sim who picked her but he wasn't interested in her like he was his real children and I had to force him to interact with her. Although he rolled no wishes for her, she rolled all the usual child wishes like "get attention from dad" - heart breaking! :heartbreak: My sims are mostly left to freewill and having to force the father to play with his child took the love out of it for me. :'(

Oh my gosh @Mikezumi that makes me want to cry just reading that! :cry:

@emorrill It really made me sad :'( and I won't ever do it again! That's not to say I wouldn't play a grown sim turned plant sim but no more babies because of the lack of parental love :(

All of my sims garden and at some point they all roll a wish to grow a forbidden fruit. I always cancel the wish! Since they are gardeners and not scientists it would take forever to get them to the point where they could splice seeds and the wish slot is better left for the hundreds of small wishes I could fulfill in that time. There are other gardening wishes worth way more LTH points which are worth locking in and, for me, the piddling amount you get from that wish is a waste of time.

You don't need a high Science Skill to get a Forbidden Fruit Seed. I had gotten one, on the first try, once, at Skill Level 1 Science. Just need to be Science Skill 1 and just do the Seed splicing, until you get it.

@Aaeiyn Thanks for that information :) Still, I don't like the way the game treats plant sims and I don't like having the Science Research Station in my game anyway. Come to think of it, there's lots of stuff I deny my sims because they are not to my taste! :p
