My sim can't water or weed

My sim can't water or weed her plants. When I first plant a new plant I'm able to choose water or weed. After that the option stays greyed out. My plants eventually decay and there's no way to save them. Also, I have the Freelance Botanist Aspiration and one of the first milestones is to water/weed plants 10 times and I can't complete it because there's no option to. Is this some sort of bug? Has anyone else been having this problem?

    It used to be a bug but it was fixed with some patch.

    Go to your game folder /user/Library/Documents /Electronic Arts - inside will be The Sims4 folder.
    Find the file localthumbcache.package - and delete it. Don't be afraid. The game will create a new one but without saved errors.
    Next, go to the Origin and fix the game,
    Origin/Library - right click on TS4 - option "Repair game"
    You have to wait until Origin will fix all packs, not only the base game.

    If it will not work the last chance is factory reset of your game folder as described in this post:
