Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Wait until plants needs weeding, try to remove weed
What happens when the bug occurs? Sims begin to weed plant either via Tend Garden, Weed Area, or Weed Plant interactions. Sim completes weed animation, weeds are not removed, sim begins the weed animation again for the same plant until action is manually cancelled. Autonomous sims will also get stuck in the loop and require a hard reset. Seems to only occur to plants that are indoors, but not to all sheltered plants. Does not occur with outdoor plants.
What do you expect to see? Weed goes away when weeding
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Happens on both vanilla and modded saves.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Ongoing issue.

I am having this issue too, for weeks at this point.
I also followed the idea of setting the plants "weed-free" with cheats which did not work and now many have weeds.

I just ran into this problem a few days ago…
after my fiancé just spent nearly $100 to get me a bunch of packs / add ons (horse, jeweler, Star Wars, home decor, bowling, and high school). It’s disheartening to see this is a bug that’s been happening since ‘21 and seems to have popped back up again. EA please patch this issue… dragon fruit farming is how I get my sims to make money.

Today's patch (May 28) notes include this:
Is that the bug described in this thread? I didn't think it only occurred during the winter. I'm not updating yet because I'm waiting for my mods to be cleared first, but if anyone can confirm whether this bug is fixed after today's patch, it would be much appreciated!

During winter, the weeding animation will no longer repeat and the Sim will actually remove all the weeds surrounding the plants. Checkmate weeds!
Fixed in Patch 1.107.112/1.92
Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issue,
