[HR] Wild Prairie Grass Lot Challenge not spawning grass

So I decided to set up a horse riding school in new pack, and bought the Lighthouse Lookout lot in Nordhaven and gave it the Wild Prairie Grass and Heist Havoc challenges. Playing with mods, no prairie grass had appeared after about a game week, so I decided to test without mods and started a new save, setting up the Lighthouse Lookout lot the same way (Wild Prairie Grass and Heist Havoc) with mods disabled, and again after a game week there was not prairie grass on the lot. Previous experience was that prairie grass would start appearing after one game day. 

I next started a new save without mods and only the Wild Prairie Grass challenge on the same lot, and let it run a couple of days, and no prairie grass spawned. I then started a new save with just the Wild Prairie Grass challenge in Hay Hill Landing in Ravenwood and 3 patches of Prairie Grass spawned, so it seems there's something about the Nordhaven world (or, at least, the Lighthouse Landing lot) that prevents the prairie grass from spawning.

Version 1.113.291.1020 DX11.

Don't think we need a separate report for Nordhaven.

    I've started an Off-the-Grid/Simple Life save file with a family who are farmers. I initially started the save in Winter but now that I'm halfway through Summer I've realized that there hasn't been a single patch of Harvest Grass (Wild Prairie Grass) growing on my lot. I am on the 64x64 lot in Chestnut Ridge. Thankfully, there is a clump outside of the property right next to it, but from what I've read online all you need to do is make sure the Lot Trait is selected (which it has been the whole time) yet nothing has grown. I've had previous save files with this Lot Trait and the HG has grown, and I know that there was a previous patch to fix the exponential abundance of it but to have absolutely NOTHING through the Spring and Summer seasons is crazy to me. Another thing of note is that my house has stayed in the Tiny-Home parameters the entire time as well. There has been a lot of consistency from major packs that have been present the whole time so I don't know exactly what the issue is to have no HG.

    I use MCCC and WW mods and have used them during this save file.

    I'm attaching a photo of what my lot/save looks like. The one patch of HG is just to the right of the 'Volcanic Activity' button on the left side of the image.

    Just noticed this issue as well.   I am playing in chestnut ridge on an off the grid farm as well and only the prairie grass placed in build buy is growing on the lot, no new patches have spawned.
