I had a quick browse through google and the forums and didn't come across an answer so thought I'd try here. Problem is, I'm not sure if this is a glitch or not. Hoping someone has an answer.My sim family have been gardeners for a long time and had a large garden of high quality dragon fruit, which paid for their large house and family. I bought the seasons expansion, excited for a bit of a new challenge to gardening, but when I logged into my family, their entire garden had been stripped of all the dragon fruit, leaving only a few extra other types of plants here and there. Could someone possibly clarify what's going on if this isn't a glitch? This is a bit of a bummer as my sims won't likely be able to pay their bills this cycle, and I'm really not into using cheats. Not my play style. Would love any input or help on the matter. Thanks!

You can get dragon fruit in the rare seed packs

I used to find dragon fruit at the Spice Festival, but this time when my family went, none of the plants were ready to harvest, and it was late summer! Those plants are the only reason my sims even go to the festivals anymore.

After spending some time at the spice festival I had a few harvestable plants but there was no green shrub part for most of the plants and the fruit was floating in the air. My sim was able to harvest a few plants but didn't get much. I managed to get one dragon fruit, one tomato, and a few strawberries. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1803/43145947971_227ee09aee_b.jpg

I believe what you are seeing is a glitch. There are several things involving plants that are messed up. They supposedly fixed it in the latest patch, but to me it actually became worse.

If the plants look like they were just planted with no growth on them, it's normal. If planted outside they only grow in the fall. If planted in a greenhouse, they will start to grow in a couple of days. If the plants are completely gone, it's a glitch.

It’s not just my dragon fruit, though. From first glance it looked like all of the dragonfruit, grapes, blackberries (at least) - they’re ALL invisible! That sim is SO rich that I rarely even bother to harvest the garden anymore - I just keep tending and improving it... so in short - invisible plants are not okay!! ? I’d rather rip them out and start over because my fun is in seeing my plants grow... and I’d also planned on doing a challenge that would require full income from gardening (but that would be a new garden/family/house).

I just REALLY don’t want to sacrifice a ton of my harvests if they’re gonna grow back invisible again (but I can’t leave them like that!). There are tons of threads about plants acting in similar, yet slightly different ways, also after installing seasons - dating back from its release to today (including new plants turning invisible after the baby sprout stage). It’s hard to know if anything’s been fixed and what to expect at this point. But I was super excited about being a real botanist and using several other features. Instead I paid for a pack I *immediatley* had to disable.

If you re-plant them, are the new ones invisible also? If so, sounds like a corruption, mod conflict, or outdated mod.
