<blockquote class="note">Players should note that active sprinklers are graphically intensive, and can cause lagging. A [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=222748 mod] by Numenor at [[Mod the Sims]] can prevent this by making the water from sprinklers invisible.</blockquote>
 
Sims will need to spray plants regularly when they become infested with bugs in order to keep them healthy. Placing a ladybug loft within two tiles of the crop reduces the frequency of bug infestation.<ref>http://modthesims.info/t/483276</ref> Sims (excluding [[Servo]]s) that spray a plant enough times will become a [[PlantSim]].
 
When a plant is ready to be harvested, clicking "Harvest" will put the fruit and vegetables in the Sim's inventory to be stocked in a fridge or juicer. Once a fridge is stocked, food made from that fridge will have sparkles around it (meaning it was made with homegrown fruit and veggies). It gives Sims a [[comfort]] boost as well as filling their [[hunger]] quicker than normal. When Sims eat this food, players will need to watch their hunger bars so they don't overeat and lose fitness. However, if the player doesn't let them overeat and is careful about having them store leftovers, gardening can help Sims' grocery purchases go farther.
Line 29 ⟶ 31:
 
Sims can join the [[Garden Club]] to get a discount on fertilizer and seeds. Garden Club members get a §2 discount on tomato seeds, a §5 discount on eggplant seeds, and a §3 discount on everything else.

===Planting/Harvest Seasons===
 
 
Plants ''can'' be planted in any season, so long as they will become harvestable before Winter begins. However, each type of plant has an optimum harvest season, and will yield more if harvested in that season.
Line 66 ⟶ 62:
;Eggplants
: plant seeds no later than the 4th day of Spring, by 8pm. They will take 6 days and 3 hours to harvest.

===Harvest Ratings===
Line 126 ⟶ 121:
