Title: Plants not growing? *RESOLVED*
Post by: Freezerburn on 2010 April 02, 03:23:14
Yeah, my plants aren't growing after few stages. No weeds, no need to water and fertilize, they just freeze at particular stage of growth. And this aint cool for my green thumb sim. Planting new seeds aren't helping, they also freeze at particular stage of growth.

Old tech support habits here - no insult intended - but... have you taken out all of your custom mods and tried a new game to see if it happens vanilla?  99% chance it's a conflict with the new 'updates'.

Oh really? I thought this kinda new bug since it never happens to me before. Sorry tho.

EDIT: I tried some searching and found this http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,17310.0.html (http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,17310.0.html) Yes, I'm having the same problem but it seems to be no fix there.

Pussy I noticed several possible fixes in that thread, including checking for a CC conflict. It's also notable that when the OP in that thread started a new game, the issue seemed to resolve itself. Have you running a clean test game to see if the issue happens again?

*Sigh* Looks like I need to start creating my family again.

It's highly likely that you may need to, however why don't you try Jessnova's suggestion first and take out any custom mods other than AM?

Also try fertilizing plants. I had a level 10 gardener with a fulfilled perfect garden want who suddenly seemed to have all but three plants in her garden fall into stasis. After four days of no status change, I tried fertilizing a few with some random minnows. Those few I fertilized had grown the next day.

Okay, I'll try all the suggestion and post the result here.

EDIT: I moved my family to new neighborhood and everything works just fine! Problem resolved!

You're not alone in this, and your problem probably isn't fixed forever. I keep having this problem too. My plants get stuck exactly like you described. There is no option on the plants to tend, water, or fertilize and they never progress. I've found I can plant new seeds after this happens to my garden and those will grow for a few cycles and then quit. I've trashed this particular family's garden four times and started over. First I thought it was my mods. I took them out. Then I thought it was the fact that I kept changing the length of the life cycle in options right before the garden froze, so I started over and quit doing that. After that I made a new town and those plants froze after a while too.

I have no idea what is really causing it to happen. Has anyone who has had this problem and solved it figured it out?
