Problem with hidden areas not refreshing

Hello!

I visited the Forgotten Grotto and Sylvan Glade.  I collected everything I could from there.  I know that the rarest collectibles are located there.  However, when I return, the areas haven't refreshed.  Meaning: All of the plants have no more items to harvest, and there are no dirt piles or rocks to dig for collectibles.  What am I doing wrong?  Please and thank you.  P.S. the fishing and frog spots are normal.

    It may be possible that the amount of time you are playing in the area in-between visits to the items is not long enough. In other words, you don't just need to have Sim-time pass in-between visits to the item/area, you may also need to spend a certain amount of that sim-time IN that area/world/area. There may also be a factor of items that do not re-generate - or that they re-generate differently in hidden areas. @PugLove888 -- Do you know if the hidden areas behave differently?
