using garden plot
I have a Sim who needs to up his gardening skills for his career. I have managed to get him to level 3 just by reading books and doing computer research. However, the garden plot he has only allows "...
@clayslinger, are you trying to plant them from the Sim's Inventory , or have you dragged the seeds to the planters or the ground and then tried to direct him to plant them? 🤔You will have to drag the seeds to where you want him to plant them for them to be planted.🙂
Also do you have the Season EP? 🤔 If you do, then is the ground too cold for planting? If the temperature is too cold you can't plant any seeds unless you plant them indoors , otherwise you have to wait for the weather to warm up. 🙂
When I open the seed packets I immediately have the vegetable, fruit, herb or whatever in my inventory. The icon for "plant" is not highlighted so I can put it in the world but then the only action for my sim to do with it is eat it.
I know I've planted before with another sim in another world so I don't know why this guy is different.
I don't have the Seasons add on so it's not that.
Thanks for your help.

Be sure you are placing them on the ground or in a planter box.
Test by being on your own lot. Which lot / world are you in when you try to plant?
Some pre-built lots use flooring that looks like terrain paint. I was fooled by more than one of these.
:Oops:
Mods or cc might also interfere. Are you on console, PC or Mac?
@EuphorialQueen, thanks for mentioning the terrain paint that looks like grass or dirt 💡... I didn't think of that! 🤭
@clayslinger, Is this problem only happening with the one household ? Have you tried other households. And does the same thing happen if you are playing a different Save Game file?🤔 I ask this because it sounds like either your Sim, or the family, or the house/lot might be glitching. But if you get the same result in a different save game file or in a different house/lot then something else is going on. 🤨
And like @EuphorialQueen asked , please tell us if you use Mods or Custom Content (CC) as outdated Mods/CC can cause problems too, so we have to look into that if you use them. 😇
