How often do you play with PlantSims?

I played with them on release around the challenge time.. then later I tried a story around one. You use to have to cheat for awhile to do it.. and that basically stopped me from trying them out again. Now you can become a plantsim if you jump through a few hoops .. have a sim reach level ten gardening to buy the rare seeds and buy the stump, grow the magic tree.. then proceed. I might try it again soon, the addition of spellcasters has made me way more interested in playing out a fantasy world now.
They could use a revamp or some more magical way to start out that's not wholly dependent on knowing how to do it.

Ohh... if you go about it this way. Do they stay permanent plantsim or is it still the three-day-stint. It is the temporal aspect that drives me away mainly. I play rotational and it is irritating to run into your occult sim who has turned muggle again.

I don't know I never played them in rotation, but I just now went through getting the stump.. the beans.. making the tree and getting the fruit. I'll be finding out soon since I'm playing in a rotational save now. I thought it was 5 days though. I'll report back unless someone else knows for sure soon enough (and will also report back if I find out otherwise because I'm obstinate that way :D )
