@Trismagistos I did yes.

And also SimGuruMrE answered my post at the other forums and said they'd look into it if it was possible to add a section into patch notes for ongoing issues. 🙂

Hi @adduapina and all the posters on this thread:
It has been another two months since the last post was written here and still the gardening bug has not been sorted, and I don't know if anything is being done or it has been conveniently and silently swept under the carpet.
If any one knows of a thread and/or post by The Team, with any info or progress (or explaining as to why the lack of progress!) please let us know or re direct us there, I am just about to give up on this game altogether, the gardening bug first appeared at the beginning of June (five months ago) and it's still here.
So to me it appears that they hear us but they don't listen and they are very good at ignoring us.
Sorry Team but that is how it feels.
This thread is a request on communication with the player as to what is being done about sorting the bugs.
I have seen absolutely no answer to that, tomorrow another pack will be launched and with it a number of bugs (that's a certainty).
I will not be updating, I don't want anymore critters thank you, and I shall not be buying any more packs either, not worth it, they cause more pain than pleasure and the World is already suffering enough pain as it is.
I will keep an eye on this thread in case anyone knows more about this as I can not find any progress whatsoever.

  @Xutchil Hi there. I just got a chance to look through the most recent patch notes and there's a mention like this "Did you ever experience the Honey I Shrunk the Basil and Sage Plants issue in-game? No longer! *No Sage or Basil Plants were harmed in the fixing of this issue*", which suggests that there has been an attempt to fix at least some of the gardening issues.
  
  However at least my older save is unaffected by this fix and my basil plant is still turning back to a seed every once in a while... (insert eye roll).
  
  Sorry that's all info I have on the subject.

    @adduapinaUnlike in your situation my Basil and Sage plants do tremendously well. Since the update they remained their original form as they had before the bug and stayed a 'normal' size even after my Sim harvested both plants and some of the grafted plants with a rootsystem made of either Basil and/or Sage.
    
    @XutchilI did not see any official Patchupdate notes yet but I did see a message of SimGuruGraham and SimGuruRusskii on an other platform:
    https://extratime.media/2020/11/10/sims-4-november-2020-update-full-patch-notes/
    After som searching I also found the official Patchupdate notes here: https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/update-notes-nov-10-2020?isLocalized=true
    I hope this will give you some of the answers you were looking for.
    
    Have fun playing. 😉
