Is anyone else having an issue where the plants in the community garden don't ever seem to be harvestable? They always just seem to be at the same state as when I placed the lot.
Glad to know I'm not the only one. I also had the same issue before and thought it would be fixed. Seems like you need to be actively playing the lot in order for plants to mature.
I spent the night in a community garden lot and that helped with the plant growth, and I was able to harvest. Of course that is not an ideal solution to this issue
Plants on a lot only produce a harvest if you are on their lot at 5am. Neighborhood plants produce a harvest if you are anywhere in the neighborhood at 5am. It's been that way since Seasons. It's a real nuisance if you're trying to get harvestables from anywhere outside your own lot and neighborhood.

So that's why none of my community lots with garden space have produced a harvest for a long time? Geez, what a pain. I'll have to try and remember to send a sim to those lots at 5am.

Yeah, it's been a PITA since they added in seasonal growing times. I still have plants in the Magic Realm that haven't borne fruit because I'm not there all the time during the right season for them to mature.
They did kinda sorta fix this for some things, like the Romance Festival plants are now mostly harvestable at most times of the year, but the Birds of Paradise never seem to be growing. Like I get adding concepts like seasonal growing times, but I feel like Maxis doesn't particularly remember all the little nuanced additions of live plants they add to various areas that might show up outside of their season - or like in the Magic Realm, where you'd think any season is the proper season since it's a magical realm. Places like Magic Realm, the festivals and other plants that show up situationally should be just be marked as "sheltered" so that it doesn't matter what time of year it is for them to bear fruit.
Quick note: your plants first need to mature before you can harvest. There is a cheat for this & other gardening stuff. If you shift-click on a plant you should see an option fo gardening. Click that & there's options for plant growth, plant evolving & others. Click on the plant growth one & choose 'mature' & your plant will instantly mature. Do this anytime before 4am & make sure your sim is there around that time too.
