Hello @TheLibrarySim
Putting the cowplant into the family inventory and then back out again helps “ grow a cow plant” to register.

Thanks, @rosemow! Unfortunately, Smucky's cowplant is in Granite Falls, so she can't go to Build Mode to put it in her inventory.
But that's okay-she's grafted a snapdragon/dragonfruit plant and she's getting a number of cowplant berries.

I hope that the growing of her cowplant goes well :)

And some tips to get your sims house prepared for their new cow plant mutant pet: if you put a radio next to her, she will dance! You can also bring her inside once it's fully grown, a vase will appear under the roots, it's adorable. I love cowplants :D

I had no idea you could do that. Now I'm going to have to start bringing Cowy inside. xD

You should probably post this in General Discussion since the Cowplant is base game not expansion IIRC.

Growing a Cowplant isn't much different than growing any other plant, other than the fact the plant needs a LOT of space -- you can't plant it in a planter box, you have to put it directly in the ground. I think it's like a 3x4 or 4x5 area it needs to develop. Then just water and wait -- it takes a while to grow. You can find the Cowplant Berry by fishing (the small pool behind the park in Oasis Springs is often a good spot) or if you have a rocket ship you can sometimes get one as a reward for one of the missions.

My problem is that mine die after they devour a couple of sims. Granted they have all lived outside and have been cared for with Sims with high gardening skills but still. What am I doing wrong?

@1Kim115 do you feed it? the cowplant eats sims when it gets hungry so if you see it with a cake sticking out it's hungry. If you leave it too long without feeding or it not eating sims, it'll die.

Honestly I have no idea. My Sim's get plenty of autonomy. Sometimes I don't notice. :D

ah, yea it happens to me to and i tend to not pay attention to it either. It may just be a case of it dying of starvation.
