Plant Sim lost her leaves

I’m doing the new scenario. I’ve never played with the plant sims before. Does anyone know why my plant sim suddenly lost her plant life state and turned back to a human Sim? I don’t have another fruit for her to eat to turn her back unfortunately

For the new scenario, you have 19 hours after they revert to normal to change back to a plantsim before you "fail" the scenario. You also get 5 fruits to start, and what you should do is plant at least 1, but no more than 3, of those 5 right at the start, because then you will be growing more fruits.
The reason for planting no more than 3 is because you will need a 2nd fruit before the ones planted grow enough to bear fruit.

in ts2-3 it was actual lifestate though

Also...the mod makes it so you can use whatever hair you want for a plant sim, so if you actually want the real plantsim hair, that turns grey when they get dried out...don't use my mod.

Don't feel bad about failing, the people over at Simscommunity.info also failed their first try when doing it to write a guide.
Also, just fyi, though the plantsim doesn't eat food, they can eat some raw produce. Potatoes and Onions, for example, fill their hunger a little bit. I'm not sure what other produce...it's been winter in my game so I've been limited to what my Plantsim is growing. I also know spinach and basil do NOT fill their hunger.

Although Im pretty sure that you can just cheat yourself into a plant sim whenever you want.
You can. It might have been from one of my old mods, but I could shift click on a sim and cycle to the last page of the pie menu and the option to make them a plantsim is there. Skeleton too. I think it was a mod that gave me those options but it's worth a look to see.
I did the mistake of starting off in Tartosa, with the tree house from sims community.
(Don’t get me wrong, it’s a beautiful build, I just cba to deal with the ladders)
Moved to the island in Sulani, and sure lots of rain and monsoons during winter but spring and summer nonstop sun. Plus loads of plants like catnip that grows all year around to absorb solar energy from
Miss being a plant sim now when I suddenly have to eat and pee 😂
There was one single day for me that was a problem, it was raining all day in Sulani and cloudy all day in Strangerville. Fortunately I'd harvested a lot of potatoes from her home garden and used those to keep her alive (eating them raw).....she ate a lot of potatoes that day.

@mightysprite That was another weird thing that happened to her, I had her plant a bunch of vegetables on day 1 and when she woke up on day 2 her plants had sprouted and by noon had died inspite of her tending them.
It was spring when I had all that bad weather.
The 5 day duration on the moodlet is brutal, but thankfully doesn't seem to go down if you're playing other households (for rotational players). That was a nice discovery
Stormkeep's mod sounds really nice, and i know there are a few that make the moodlet permanent, though i never tried them. The one mod i would heartily suggest is a somewhat older one just called 'plantsims keep their hair' which does exactly what it says on the tin... no more all plantsims having the exact same hairstyle all the time
...not a mod or anything, but if people want more foebidden fruit, i'd uploaded a room a while back with about 50 of them in it, since i know how annoying it can be to get them again if you forgot to plant one of the first ones to get the tree...
And with seasons the world you choose to put your plantsim in is a huge deal, as people have been discovering. Mine are in windenberg, on the island (which is full of occults, unlike the rest of that world) and it is overcast most days. Hob seems even worse
Seems oasis springs and strangerville are probably the best year round options, though i'd think their water need drops faster there (never really checked that). Sprinklers on the lawn would help immensely with that
Because my Plantsim spends most of her day in Sulani working as a conservation though, the hydration need is actually minimal. As a conservationist, she fills the need every time she goes into the ocean. So I actually only used the sprinklers/showers in her home like once a day.
As for forbidden fruits, once you have a tree grown, take a cutting and graft it on to a fast growing plant. You get multiple fruits per harvest from one plant when it is grafted onto a fast growing plant. I believe I grafted it onto either basil or parsley...whichever is the one that is "all" seasons.

She did have an issue with plants dying really quickly. She planted sage, spinach, and I think onions maybe, I can't remember the third plant. Anyway, she watered them, talked to them, and by 7pm on the first day they had already sprouted. The spinach already needed weeding and bug spray, after less than 10 hours. She wakes up at 5am and all of the spinach and sage plants had died, less than 24 hours after they were planted. I've never done a gardener before, but something sounds way off. I haven't put back more than 10 mods, and most of that was poses for my story thread. With the good soil lot trait and a PlantSim does that turbocharge the growing process for plants?
