Plant Sim: No option to absorb solar energy

Pretty sure that's because you have Enchanted by Nature, it was said earlier that buying it will handle the issue. I just loaded in for the third day without any option to absorb solar energy. Tested every way I could, in and out of planters, wild plants, becoming a plant sim again after losing it. There is no option. Honestly the scenario is usually glitchy with absorbing sunlight not being counted unless I go to Sulani and swim around in the sun to trigger it, then I can go back and it counts for the scenario. And the whole absorbung energy from plants has historically been problematic with any changes causing the option to be lost and requiring restarting the game just to get the option. I'm about to try with a fresh Sim in the household to try it with. It failed.
