Gardening overall is BROKEN and UNUSABLE [ Edited ]

[ashnjames23]

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Mac
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.75.125.1230
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Cats and Dogs, Get to Work, Get Together, Dine Out, Outdoor Retreat, Parenthood, Spa Day, Vampires, Backyard Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, Kids Room Stuff, Luxury Party Stuff, Movie Hangout Stuff, Vintage Glamour stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Plant anything, anywhere.
What happens when the bug occurs? Almost all bugs that could possibly happen: plant reverts back to previous state, plant never grows, plant never needs water, weeding , or spraying, plant is never harvestable. Best part: PLANT THEN DIES FROM LACK OF CARE. Debug object does not work. Using testingcheats to set plant state works only temporarily, if at all.
What do you expect to see? Plant growth, options to tend garden, plants' quality increasing, anything about gardening working... at all.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. After May 27th update, have not played game since 2019 before this. Seeing related EA forum posts and bug reports since 2018.

An entire aspect of the game has been glitching in so many ways it's hard for Moderators to even keep up with all of the message reports. Here is my save file to be added to whichever thread will help get this issue RESOLVED:

For me personally, the game is UNPLAYABLE until something can be done about the variety of bugs being encountered.

There's several threads for gardening issue.

Please use these as there needs to be a separate thread for each. Collection threads actually make it harder to keep track
