Oh sure, yes, they still work. I just get easily frustrated when my Magnificent Cherry tree is on the brink of death with flies and weeds & I’m unable to save it! My little heart can’t take it lol. I like to participate in the Finchwick Fair Competition with garden produce, plus relying on selling the harvestables to pay the bills is pretty lucrative when you have such nice quality plants. Not all plants have this glitch, it seems, but I’ve have issues specifically with fruits.
I appreciate your concern and advice!
I also have this issue, but have found a workaround within the game. Using testing cheats on, I shift click affected plant and change it to “in season”. This means all options work for me again and I can weed, spray bugs… However if sim travels by phone then I have to reset the plants to in season again when returning home. A bit laborious, but it works if you don’t want to use any mods in your game.
Another option if you can't or won't use mods and prefer to avoid cheats is to put any plants you've evolved to a high quality into your household inventory when they're out of season, then place them back in the world when the season changes. It's kind of a hassle, and having to go to such lengths just to keep our plants alive is a bit frustrating, but at least with these workarounds (personally I use the spellcaster one), we can get by until hopefully this actually makes the laundry list to get fixed someday.🤞
