Garden Plot
From Build Mode, click the Garden Center icon and then choose the Gardening option. Select the Garden Plot then click your mouse where you want to place the first tile and hold and drag out to the size you want.


Communicating with Nature
Your Sim has just become a PlantSim, which means the phrase "becoming one with nature" was never more apt! PlantSims have gardening abilities that'll make even the most informed botanist's head spin! If you want to cure your Sim of PlantSimism, simply click the phone and choose Call…Service and then Garden Club. When they arrive, click on one of them to buy a Plantophic-C potion, which you can then direct your Sim to drink.


How to ...
Once you have a plot, you can direct one of your Sims (in Live Mode) to fertilize it or plant crops by clicking on the plot. Once they have crops planted, they need to TEND and WATER them.

Your Sim's crops need some attention to truly thrive. Make sure they get enough water and remove any stifling weeds as soon as you see them. Your Sim's garden might also attract some unwelcome attention in the form of pests.

If your Sims takes good care of their plants, they will eventually yield a crop of mouth-watering fruits or veggies. Your Sims can then harvest the plants and use them to stock the refrigerator or a new juicer with the bounty. Money driven Sims can simply sell the produce straight from the garden.


Gardening
Your Sims can now grow fresh fruit and vegetables in their yard to cook fresh meals, drink delicious juices, or even sell for Simoleons. Your Sims will need to keep their eyes open for the best season to plant and harvest each type of produce in order to reap the best crop. Be aware of the elements, as it can mean great or terrible things for your budding sprouts.
