I Quit: How do I get Herbs the easy way?
I'm a late bloomer to the Sims 4 and I only recently got Outdoor Adventure. Is there anyway to spawn or debug or buy the herbs from somewhere? I can hardly find any herbs and it takes so many darn vis...

In addition to what @Karababy52 said, to get the 10 herbs and flowers you need for herbalism, you might want to plan a 7 day vacation and arrive before 5 AM during the summer if you have Seasons since that's the only time of year when all 10 are available at the same time. If you don't have Seasons, then you can go anytime you want because the climate is always the same and all the plants will bloom after the 1st day. Since all of the plants and insects are not all in the same area and some of them can only be found in one of the 3 areas (Rental home area, the state park and the deep woods/hermit house hidden area) only, you'll have to go to each area before you'll be able to collect all 10 of the havestables and all 20 of the insects. Basically, it can take you 2 days in each area to collect everything assuming you time it right if you have to wait on the plants to grow. On the insects, some of those only show at certain times of the day, usually dawn and dusk but it does vary by insect. The big dragonfly is probably the hardest one to catch because it only shows once a day and it doesn't show at the same time every time. Some days, that one doesn't seem to show at all. The fire ants and bees can be a pain to catch too since they bite a lot of the time and if they do, they don't get collected and you have to try again later.
Now if you're talking about all the other plants, you can order seeds from the computer or by clicking on the 2x2 planter bed. The only plants you can't buy via the seed packs are the 10 OR herbalism plants and the 3 GTW alien plants and the UFO fruit. Even the magical plants from ROM and the plants added by JA and Vampires can be bought. I'm not sure if those can be bought if you don't have those game packs though and you might have to have Seasons too. The seed packs were added by Seasons if I remember correctly. But if you do, you can buy them as seed packs. BTW, for some of the seed packs (uncommon and rare), you have to have a certain Gardening skill level before they will show up in the order menu dropdown.
Another way to get herbs, fruits and veggies is buy them at the produce vender stalls that show up in the CL spice district and arts district from time to time but you can't buy all of them there. The only way to get them all is by buying the seed packs. But you have to have City Living for that.
Hope this helps you.
