Sulani And Gardening, Can It Happen? UPDATE

I usually have greenhouses with sprinklers, can grow anything there. Haven't had any problems in Sulani. I plant directly on the ground, no matter the type. I find planter boxes/pots to take up too much room. Also don't think sprinklers will water those, but may be wrong :)

Thanks. Sprinklers on an off-the-grid lot might not work either.

I have everything planted in the boxes and just watch the seasons so the ones out of season can go in the greenhouse. All my trees are outside in the rough looking planter box for one plant and the others are in the four planter box. I am in the fall season in my game and so far the only one of my trees that has changed was the coconut. It went back to like when I first planted it the little mound of dirt but they are that way also in other parts of Salani. The other trees that are not in season are just not producing right now. The plants that I switch out in the greenhouse still produce just not as much as if they were in season.

I didn't actually check that, should have of course :) I didn't keep the trait when I moved my sims there. I tried it a while, but couldn't work with it. It was just too inefficient for me :#

I've just read a lot of complaints on these forums about what does and doesn't work. Even things that should work. I plan on moving my couple from the 18th century onto the lot by the volcano, since we can't use the off the grid lot trait in Brindleton Bay. (They're just no fun at all.) ;)

Volcanic soil is generally very fertile so don't forget to put the good garden house trait on!

Great advice! Thanks.

The lot trait isn’t locked to Sulani if that’s what you meant, you can place it on any lot in any world. Just an FYI in case you didn’t already know ;-)

So far I've been able to grow in the ground on Sulani. Plantains, Pineapple, Coconut, Tomatoes, green pepper, green beans. All in gound, around the house (no greenhouse). Water, bug, and harvest are there, I've seen spray for bugs occasionally. Then I harvest things I was and put in the fridge and see the rest. You can still hire a gardener too.

That's really good news. As my ancestors did, I plan on having this couple sell much of their crops to earn money.

Oh, but I tried and it wasn't even on the menu! At least not for Brindleton Bay! Thanks. I'll have to explore other neighborhoods.

Yea I’m using the Off The Grid trait in StrangerVille right now.

Okay, I will check to see if it's available in another town, and if not, I'll do a repair game. Again. This EP and its patch has created sheer havoc in my game. Not happily. Thanks for the confirmation, though. :)
