Re: Can't Water Plants in Sims4

@timablue Do you use planters for your plans and what kind of plants does your Sim grow?
Only from the age of teenagers will your Sims be able to water the pants or take care of them.
It could well be that your Sims ar not able to reach them or there could be another underlying problem.
Can you please attach a screenshot of the situation so we can have a better look?
Thanks in advance.

    I do use planters, but I also have trees that aren't planted in a planter. The planters are spaced pretty far apart, but there is also no option, not even grayed out, that would allow me to water the plants. I am using an adult sim to perform the action, but I have also tried with teenagers and have the same problem. I am able to water plants at a different lot, but not this one. I attached a screenshot of my garden with a sim showing the actions that are available.

    @timablueThere are a few things I am not able to see from the screenshot. But could it be that your planter is facing the fence?
    What would happen when you replace the planter with the tree on the left to the middle of the garden?
    As far as I can see from the screenshot is the tree in the front recently watered. The ground looks wet to me. Therefor you will not get the option water the plant(s).
