can't water, weed or spray crops

I'm not able to tend to my garden properly for some reason? the normal plants are fine but the oversized crops have no fighting chance to live. not sure what I'm missing. happening to anyone else? i can't seem to see anyone else having this issue

  • I had the same issue, after going through all of my mods I discovered my issue was caused by Cepzid's "kids can garden" mod, probably due to the game update allowing kids to cook and garden.

    I imagine it could be any similar gardening mod.
    Once I removed it I was able to weed/water/spray bugs as normal.

    Hope this helps 🙂

    @Smudgepix 

    Did you recently Fertilize? That causes small sparks.

    What level are your Sim in Gardening?

  • i hadn''t at that time, sims level  in gardening is 6.

    I've added a couple screen shots of when its in need of weeding in comparison to a standard plant.. if i select  encourage growth, it looks like she's weeds the crops but the weeds are still there. i've watched gameplay of people interacting with the crops but i'm just not getting all the options. unless i'm missing something?

  • amazing!! that was it thank you so much, all sorted 🙂

  • All of the oversized crops on my sim's lot have weeds and bugs yet there is no option to weed them or spray the bugs when I click on the crops. I also don't see an option to water them. I can only cheat the weeds and bugs away when shift-clicking on them but shortly after the weeds and bugs reappear almost instantly. This is only happening for the new oversized crops that came with Cottage Living but no other plants. There is basically no way for me to keep the crops alive even if I cheat. Is this happening to anyone else? Does anyone know why this is happening?
