Can't plant non-tree/flower seeds.

Hi! I just found this bug today when I was playing a new game. I can plant flowers and trees on the ground, but the option to plant isn't there for fruits/veggies/herbs. (Ex: I planted an apple, pear, lily, and snapdragon, but can't plant the onion, basil, or strawberry.) I encountered this when playing with and without mods, on the latest patch. I'm on PC with Windows 7, and have all the DLC other than vintage glamour stuff. The only Sim in my household is a human young adult. I tried moving the seeds around in build/buy to give them plenty of room, but there was no change.
Am I the only one with this issue? Any help would be appreciated

Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" or " options " file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder

Resetting the folder didn't help, unfortunately. I'll try repairing the game later and let you know if that works!
Although you have tested with and without mods, try again moving your whole mods folder to the desktop. Then launch the game and see if the issues remain.

Hello @StarWhispers There is an issue where sims are unable to graft cuttings taken from plants that are not on their home lot.
You may like to post feedback or press " me too " on this thread on the AHQ EA site that refers to the issue

Thank you for your response but I am just going to submit my bug reports directly to the devs from now on. I would rather wait for an email from their team. Good luck with all your endeavors and the other website you keep pushing.
Starting a new game after resetting the Sims 4 folder and repairing the game seems to have worked, however. My earlier save is still broken though, even though it was a new game in the latest patch.
@StarWhispers I noticed the evolving animations as well, but it only happens when the Sim starts trying to evolve all the plants without direction (which I greatly appreciate). It doesn't appear that the evolve all function is perfect--they only do 2-3 plants in the area at a time and the sparkling/swirling level up animation is only appearing on the first plant that was supposed to be evolved, but it's functional at least. I haven't noticed the issue with grafting but I haven't really tried it either. As far as websites go, we can't really confirm that the Sims team sees them here or at the answers HQ site, but there's not really anything we can do other than e-mailing them directly which they also may not reply to, but if you want to try it then I wish you the best of luck! They have to be hearing our complaints somewhere, since issues do get fixed eventually. I know on answers HQ there's a resident non-EA poster who tries to help fix/confirm bugs. If there's nothing he can do to help, he adds it to the ever growing list of confirmed bugs.
Hello
I am sorry that your old save continues to have the issue. You may need to use the new save game. You could save your sims and save their homes to your library and place them into the new save game.They will lose though any relationships that your sims has with sims not in their household, and will lose their inventory and collections progress. They will retain though their skills, reward traits, aspiration progress and their careers.

Hello
The Developers read all the reports both here and on the AHQ EA site. They often comment in threads. The other website is the official EA site for reporting games issues.

Wow! That "other website" is the official EA Answers HQ. The post you were referred to is in the Sims 4 Bug Report section of this official EA website.
You can post your bug reports here, but also having the reports on the other website is a good way to let EA/Maxis know of the problem.
Some of the landscaping plants have a very big footprint. I had trouble planting, too, just this week. I had to move the plants (such as harvested flower seeds) very far away from some landscaping. Try it in the middle of a field. Some of the new stuff is hateful.
My big problem with that link is it could be used as "Click bait" to get you to download viruses. It has and does happen. That is a big reason I try to avoid going on forums. But unfortunately I can not avoid this forum. Because like so many others I have glitches to work through as well.
First problem with that is, although you are well known in the community so that means you are trusted, I do not know you. So to try to get me to click on an external link made me extremely suspicious. External links can be used as "Click Bait" to get people to download viruses, or even just to obtain their IP address. So I never click external links.
Second is: I ended up deleting this character, as not only could I not splice from my own yard, but for some reason the repair man thought it would be an awesome idea and stick around! I mean it too. The guy never left my house no matter what I did
Hello
The site that is linked to is the official EA Help site. It is understandable that you are wary of clicking on links. There is always the risk of downloading viruses by doing that. There is a filter censor applied to this current forum that helps to prevent links to virus -sites in posts. It prevents those links being posted.
I would never ever post a link to a virus site. The EA Help site is an official EA site.
Edit : I was writing the above part of this post at the same time as you were writing your post and didn't know that you had posted a second post.
