My Aspiration Challenge :)

It is a seasonal thing. Most of the wild plants grow in Summer and a couple in the Fall. Check out Carl's Sims 4 Gardening Guide and Plant List here. They also grow on the same schedule as all other worlds, so you must be there for at least a day or two for them to grow and then harvest after 5 a.m. Good luck, hope this helps! :)

EDIT: It also helps to be a higher level in the Herbalism skill to identify the plants and, of course, be focused.

Aaaah I thought that much, good thing I shortened the seasons, they were on the longest. I will just hide out by the hermit and study Herbalism waiting for each one to grow, I know most of them are around her place. We good friends now hahahaha. Thanks @Karababy52 appreciate the advice and reply. Happy simming :)

You're very welcome! :) I've played this particular aspiration numerous times. I think it's one of the most challenging and time consuming aspirations of all. I love it though! Granite Falls is gorgeous and the deep woods area where the hermit resides in particular has a lot of the rarer plants and insects to harvest. Several of my Sims have married the hermit in my game too. ;) The hermits were all elders and erratic when the pack first came out, but now, most of mine are young adults! Have a great rest of your week and...

Happy Simming! <3

EDIT: BTW where can I find the rules for this challenge? It looks like it would be fun to tackle. I'm always looking for more to play. I've played most of the ones available on the challenges thread here that interest me already, some more than once...or twice. :D

I can see this one is gonna be a challenge, but its fun. No specific challenge rules as for basic no cheating. I just one day went in game and made printscreens of all the aspirations including the hidden grilled cheese one and then I used an online randomizer to pic an order. I play the game with aging off so there is no rush. I also don't cheat with needs, I did with money to set her up, but thats about it. I just play normal without cheats, I did delete her six million pets after the pet one but otherwise just have fun :D

Are those all the aspirations from all the packs? I still don't own a handful of packs so I was curious if that was all of them

Yip those are all of them. :) I own all the stuff, game and expansion packs <3
I will post the pic of them without my ticks for those simmers who would like to use it ;)

@mcrudd Fantastic, thank you! So this is a challenge you made up yourself, great idea! I've saved the sheet without tick marks and will definitely be trying this challenge in the near future. I'm a bit immersed in SE at the moment, just got it for Christmas! ;) I have all packs except JTB. I'm guessing numbers 33 & 46 are aspirations from that pack? I don't recognize them anyway. I'll most likely play it in conjunction with my favorite way to start all my saves/challenges (when allowed by rules), Rags to Riches style with 0 simoleans.

Thanks for the info., and Good Luck to you while playing the challenge! :)

EDIT: Is #25 from JTB as well? I don't recognize it either.

Oh wow SE is fun, I must say I find the whole no shoes thing a bit annoying, mostly because my sims end up too playful when disobeying the rules LOL. I always fear they will die of laughter if they too playful. TB is lots of fun and amazing while in Batuu, but once back home its bleh, almost like Strangerville, its fun Once ;) Number 25 is from SE you should have it in your game now :) The other two were Batuu. Oh I love Rags to Riches I played it many moons ago though LOL.

Since the plants are available Spring/Fall and Summer/Fall I time it so my sim goes on vacation during the last week of Spring and the First week of Summer. I can usually get them with 3 days of Spring and 3 of Summer but I've done it so many times I just know where stuff spawns by now.
Just start in the rental area and give them time to grow while you fish or whatever or collect the bugs. Then move on to the National Forest.. let them grow and collect then move on to the Hermits Place .. when Summer hits do the rounds again.
Maybe read the first herbalism skill book to level 3 at least so that identifying them isn't a problem.. then again all the plants will look different in your inventory so you'll know at least that you got them all.
