    I'm not sure if anybody else knows this now but there is a way. However, it's pretty time consuming if you have a lot of plants you wish to evolve. It works, as I am currently evolving tobacco leaves to sell. It is also repetitive as it only evolves your plants one stage at a time.

    Shift, left click on the plant you wish to evolve, click on "set gardening state", then you'll want to click on "plant evolution". You'll see four options which include: withered, devolved, on-track and ready to evolve.

    Here, you'll want to click on the "ready to evolve" option. Then you will manually need to evolve your plant, but don't worry, it's part of the pie menu. (you don't need to shift-click for this.)

    I'm not sure if you need to have a certain gardening skill as I have already maxed my skill. If you don't have gardening skill and it doesn't work, I can only assume you'll need it. 

    You'll have to do this on each plant individually (hence it being time consuming) and it only evolves once so you'll need to repeat the process on each plant until you're happy with the quality.

Here's a Plant list found on Carl's Sims 4 Guide website. It lists the number of hours it take each plant to mature and be ready to harvest. Hope this helps too! :)

Sims 4 Plant List

After you check out the plant list, I'd advise scrolling up to the top of that page and reading the entire guide. You'll find a ton of very useful information about gardening in the Sims 4. <3


Thanks. I already read that info and I can't make those hrs on Carl's site to work. I tested a few plants before I started this thread. And those hrs doesn't quite match the new 5 AM routine anyway, so I wonder if his table is a bit outdated on the hours. Don't blame him for not re-checking it after the overhaul though, because there are so many more useful tasks to explore :)
