@simbody872 thank you so much!
I wish I would've asked sooner, I thought I read somewhere that seed packets are supposed to be random but I constantly get the same stuff...idk how much money I threw away trying to get the right plants
I'm in sim week 3 / maxed gardening / level 8 cooking / level 2 handiness / level 7 painting / level 1 on fitness (I noticed not running around collecting stuff has made a difference in my sims' body) current lot value $16,819 but now that I know not to wast more money on seeds)
I'm having so much fun with this though, I've played Sims since 2001 but this is the 1st ever challenge I've tried and I'm loving it, I've noticed a few things happen in my game that I never notice before (some kinda gross things they do but very funny lol)...one more thing I love about The Sims games is the versatility in game play!! (playing without cheats is also new for me)
