The seeds will appear in your Sims’ inventory so go ahead and plant them. You can pick between five kinds of crops: aubergine, lettuce, mushroom, pumpkin or watermelon. Click on either a computer or one of the garden patches to order them. Now you have the garden patches placed, it’s time to order some seeds. Oversized crops will grow year-round, so no need to place them inside a greenhouse even with The Sims 4 Seasons installed. Less is fine, but keep in mind each crop will take about a full week to grow. Start with 5 to 15 garden patches if you can.
To get started you’ll need to place a garden patch in Build Mode. Unlike regular crops, oversized crops can’t be planted in the regular ground or planter.
Use the new harvestables to create canned goods or visit the Finchwick Fair to join the Oversized Crops Competition.
Plop down a garden patch or two and you’ll be ready to get started. If you’re into gardening in The Sims, you’re going to love the new oversized crops that come with The Sims 4 Cottage Living.
