Gardening is a great skill for Green Thumb Sims, Sims who want to cook, and Sims who like the outdoors… and gardening skill is a great way to make extra money on the side
So here’s the sims 3 tutorial, i hope this tips and trick for gardening help you =)
You can lern gardening skill by taking gardening class, or reading gardening book. You can also plant a seed and cultivate it to start developing the skill.
Once the skill has been acquired, Sims can choose the plant interaction from seeds and other harvestables in their personal inventories. When they continue leveling, they can unlock 2 more interactions : weed and fertilize.
One clever thing you can do with a growing harvestable is talk to it. Talk to plant is available if a sim has the green thumb trait, or the insane trait
Unlockable Interactions For Gardening Skill Development |
||
| Interactions | Level | Effect |
| Weed | 2 | Sims can pull up chocking wees before they damage a harvestable. The higher the skill level, the less time it takes to clear weeds around a plant |
| Fertilize | 3 | Fertilizing is key to growing the best harvestables. The quality of the fertilizer is what affects the potential growth of the harvestable |
| Uncommon Seeds | 5 | Once the sims reaches this level, they can plant uncommon seeds |
| Revive Plant | 6 | If a sim has the green thumb trait, this interaction is unlocked at level 6. A dying plant can be rescued with a pretty high success rate by using this interaction. |
| Rare Seeds | 7 | Once the sims reaches this level, they can plant rare seeds |
| Special Plants | 8,9,10 | At level 8, you get the first of three special gardening oppotrunities from the chef at the bistro. There is one opportunity per level, once all three have been completed.. the sims receives Omni Plant seeds and the ability to plant them |
What is Omni Plant ? Imagine a plant that grows into whatever fertilizer you give it… Give the Omni Plant a book and the Omni Plant will soon blossom great texts
Oh yeah.. try to grow garlic and watermelon for simple cash crops. Just keep planting the highest quality of these harvestables and churn the garden until it becomes a money machine
To raise the best harvestables, you must show no mercy with your plants. Keep growing as many as you can and dispose of the lowest quality ones.. so you keep breeding higher quality harvestables. Combine this tactic with raising your skill level to keep growing better harvestables. Using quality harvestables in your cooking improves the quality of recipes, which in turn gives out better meal related moodlets.
There are few amazing trees and plants out there, including the coveted Money Tree. The Money Tree gives off Simoleons if it’s properly cared for, but.. it’s a high maintenance plant.
If you don’t take good care of the Money Tree, it will explode into bills that must be paid !
Grow the Flame Fruit and then keep one in your pocket to enjoy the warmed moodlet wherever you go. Once you have unlocked it, you can order more Omni Plant seeds through the mailbox.
