[OPEN] Fertilize several plants with the same item doesn't work

For myself, and it's been this way for me before Seasons, I always queue up 7 plants to fertilize with the top item (paused game then live once all 7 are queued).  Always, it uses one item for those 7 plants.  I always considered this a perk as you use less fertilizer this way.  All of my plants benefit from being fertilized.  I just checked all of my Seasons game plants and they are all at the same quality growth level.  So for me, I see no change to how it's always worked.
