Hi there. I think I know what's happening when I am not at home with my active Sim and the scheduled gardener visits.

Scenario:

During our time away e.g. 8 hours at work, the gardener visits, it takes him 30 minutes to complete the garden and he leaves. After that the plants keeps growing for 7 hours 30 minutes, get insects and weeds etc. again. When we return from work, the plants are in a state of maybe more weeds or insects, which will explain why it seems that the gardener was not there, and it looks like my Sim get charged for nothing.

I think this is how the system should work. Thanks.

@Shevari  Was the plant out of season ? Did you have to pay for the gardener aka did he really come and was the rest of the garden fine ?

@crinrict - Hi there. The plant was not out of season. I was at work on a gig for the Home Decor career. I was charged when I returned from work during the afternoon so I assume he was there. It is a scheduled gardener. It looks like the garden as I left it before work.

@Shevari So he basically did nothing ?

EDIT: Does he do it when you're on the lot ?

shevari · Answer

Hi there. Yes he did it while I am on the lot but not when I am away.
