You don't need a gold badge to get good produce. Just let Macrotastics do its thing

At the risk of sounding like a fawning sycophant, I wanna say that the garden macro is Awesome.  Until I tried it, I was ready to give up on gardens and orchards because they require so much micromanagement.

This is how I am making them eat :D Empty fridge needs food! Pond is frozen, so no fish.


At the risk of sounding like a peevish pedant, just wanna point out that you can double the food-unit value of your produce by nurturing lower quality produce up to mouthwatering status before you harvest it.  Sometimes, one extra weed-and-water cycle is all it takes.

seelindarun:
You don't sound like a pedant, which is difficult around here, but you do sound like a noob.  This effect is well-known and Macro' already takes advantage of this very thing.  In fact, even if your farmer is a complete idiot, Macro' will patiently take him in hand, and force him to water a sickly plant all the way to mouth-watering condition, before permitting him to harvest.

Have a stroll on over to the War Room.  While it is nowhere near comprehensive, it captures the gist of what MATYzens assume you know already.

Emma:
Maygus, I know what Macro>Garden can do, I've used it for months and months...I am playing without it on this one self-sufficent family, I use it for all my other families. The problem wasn't the fact of less-than-mouthwatering food, it was the fact that my sim was turning round numerous times and the plants were taking an age to disappear. M'kay?

Well done, Maygus.   ;D

I think I've figured out what's wrong with running TJ's perfectgardens hack.  My sims never seem to gain garden skills beyond the ability to grow tomatoes, since there is never any call to water, weed, or otherwise tend.  It's a plant and harvest only hack, it seems.  I've removed it, in hopes of growing some sort of variety.
