Indoor Plants Dormant after Eco Living Installation

I have plants in my game that never came back. I had to cheat them but they always revert back to just planted after harvest. I did some testing in a new save and the same happens after plants have been fertilized and evolved. It does not happen right away. Some of the plants were a week or two old. Not all plants do it and two herbs turn to lumps (just planted) after the first harvest.

The plants in my indoor area keep growing then all of sudden they will appear as if they are dormant. I'm not 100% sure but I think it happens when the eco footprint changes. Last night when I was playing I had the notification that my eco foot print had once again drifted back to neutral and then I noticed that the plants looked dormant again. I will keep an eye out tonight when I play to see if I'm right or not.

I've had it happen but then they come back. I've fiddled with pots and stuff though so not sure what brings them back to life. I know some go to seed and re-bloom ready to harvest the next day. My cowplant though is invisible except for the baby horns.... it moo's and jangles and must have ate the butler before I noticed. I find it funny now just because some bugs tickle me but hopefully it will be fixed soon.

I have seasons but it is disabled (buyers remorse). My plants are doing the same thing. I have them in pots far from the house, one minute my Bluebells were grown and had flowers, went inside to upgrade washer additive tray, came out and three flowers and one garden plant were back to the newly planted stage. Hard to work on my gardening aspiration. I have no mods or cc installed. Have problem with pets disappearing also. I did the repair through origin several times. I had just recently installed Win 10, thought it might be that so I reinstalled it. Downloaded the game again, only thing in mods folder is the resource file. Did not fix it. I only have a few packs installed, do not plan on adding any more. I find a lot of the clothes, hair and objects they include with the packs are not my liking. Too bad I can't donate them to the Salvation Army.

I’m having an issue that when I travel, most of my plants will be reset when I come back to the lot.
