Hello, I am having a similar issue. I am on a home lot in Windenburg and we have a lot of plants, but all the Spinach ones specifically are giving me this message. It is currently Winter and so I tried moving the plants indoors (3 spinach plants). The plants are now green instead of brown but still displaying the same message. I can see the little spinaches ready to be plucked, and I can hit the sell option or graft, fertilize, analyze, talk to plant, etc. Initially I thought it had something to do with Patchy as I had never played with the feature before, but nothing has happened. We did bring the plants with us from another lot when the family moved, but all other plants were fine and I even harvested the spinach at least once on the new lot before this happened. Lmk if anyone finds out anything!
@AngeleKay , gardening can be a bit buggy, and I don't always read all the text when I hover over a plant, but I don't know if that message showed up for the first time with Discover University, or if it always existed. 🤔 It could be an isolated glitch with that plant or that lot, or it could be a widespread bug I'm not aware of.
Are you playing on a console or on a PC or Mac? If you are playing on a PC or Mac, do you have any Mods/Custom Content (CC)? 🤔
I play on a laptop PC on Steam, most of my packs were bought on Origin. I do not use any mods or CC, running completely vanilla.
@AngeleKay That is really strange. The only time I ever saw that was in that area mentioned earlier in this thread, in Britechester where the secret society meets. Do you own the 'Discover University' pack? A few things you could try:
Thanks for the suggestions! It does happen with multiple sims. I believe it was a seed packet that I opened and planted on the last lot (also Windenburg). I do have University and have not used any mods or CC since creating this save or installing the game on this system (previously used some on Origin on a different computer, but deleted all saves when I re-purchased on Steam and did a clean install).
I will try the reset/debug and the inventory fixes and get back to you!
Quick update, the next time I loaded the game this issue was resolved. However, one or two in-game days later the same thing is happening with my carrot plants! xD I had just rearranged the garden in build mode, so perhaps this is linked to that specifically? If the issue occurs again I will try the debug option.
