Lately, I've been getting into gardening in the sims 3. I love the variety of foods you can make, and interesting combos like watermellon pancakes. I love growing ingredients for the recipies, simply because it all seems slightly more realistic.
I just recently downloaded a house from Thesims3.ea.com that had a huge garden in the backyard that includes everything from uncommon seeds, flame fruit, and life fruit to watermellon, potatoes, and tomatoes.
It's interesting the vast variety of plants your sim can grow. I'm reletively new to the whole gardening thing, yet, I do see a lot of my older sims (those who have retired, espeically) that have a lot more time on their hands doing more gardening.
Anyone have any gardening tips? Tricks? Stories?
The tips that I have to offer is: 1) Sims in the household with a large garden should be a part of the science career track because they need that garden to boost needed skills, as well as fill requests for the science facility.
2) Buying a sprinkler for every two rows of plants saves time put into gardening and also saves the garden on those days where your sim is just too tired to work. Make sure you shut them off within a day (in the game time) so that your plants don't die from overwatering.
3) Put most ingredients in the fridge, at least the important ones such as life fruit, so that your sim doesn't accidently cook them into their next batch of pancakes. When your sim is out and about, make sure you have a few pieces of fruit, for this gives your sim something to eat while they're out, so that they don't have to search for food or stop what they're doing to go back home and make a meal.
Another site that's useful: http://www.carls-sims-3-guide.com/skills/gardening/
=) Happy Gardening.
I'll see if I can get pictures of my garden up to show you guys.
