@crinrict Sorry, Yes, That worked for me! 😉

I'm having the same issue. They are going into the household inventory for some reason, then you have to drag them out. Surely that's not right though. Hope they fix it soon 😊😊

I've done the usual recommendations regarding testing the issue. I've tested with and without mods/CC (I only use NPCC) and I've also tested on an old save and a clean save. I've made sure cheats are disabled, and that move objects is turned off - the six garden patches were placed down without move objects on.In screenshot one, this is what the plot of land looks like. I've clicked on the garden patches (move objects is disabled) and the garden patches can fit next to each other without issue. In screenshot two, I attempted to layer the garden patches slightly, but was unable to do so. My Sims have no issue routing in and around the garden patches. It's worth noting that I only started getting this issue recently (the day before the hotfix) and up until then, I had no issues planting oversized seeds in this exact same plot layout.Sometimes it works just fine, other times I get the message about it being added to my household inventory.

@aftksimsGetting this, too, on PC. First time it's happened - I last played a couple of days ago, so I think there's been an update since, which I assume is the cause. I had 9 empty mounded plots, my sim only successfully planted 5 of them, the others going into the household inventory (where each appears as the 9 heaps of soil). When I try to drag these to the plots, they appear for a moment, then pop off again back to the inventory. When I try to move the soil plots and back, or replace with new ones, it says "can't intersect other objects". No mods or CC and I've not used move objects on this lot.I've had one lot break once where some invisible "object" has prevented me building or placing items on the affected tiles, and this looks like the same issue, but affecting more tiles (soil plots 1,2 & 4 of one row and plot 2 of the adjoining row)Edit: used the Flatten Lot tool and this seems to have fixed the row with 3 plots broken, but so far the one plot in the next row is still broken.

Could anyone experiencing this issue possibly share a save file with me where you've seen it occur? You can DM me the link to your save, thanks so much!

@aftksims Did you test this without mods/cc installed ?

Had trouble finding out myself, had something similar.
I have some Mounded In- Ground gardening patches.
Bought the Oversized Crop Seeds directly from clicking on one of them, and with those Seeds in my inventory, I chose Plant Oversized Crops option while clicking the Gardening Patches. That worked for me.

I'm getting the same 'moved to household inventory' message too.
I am able to place them in the garden patches from build & buy mode, and thankfully they still grow as normal, but it is very annoying that I have to place them from my household inventory.

@Plumbeeb @andyrew007

Do you guys have them indoors or outdoors ? Any mods/cc ?

Hi I have mine outside and I don't have any mods or cc. I should have mentioned that I'm playing on xbox one. 😁

Have any of You guys placed the garden patches on top of each other, or against something else with the "moveobjects" cheat, by any chance? Just played around now, and got the message after placing two patches overlapping, and trying to plant on both garden patches.
