Seasons: Plant sims
witch:
I don't mind that the plant sims only have two life stages, makes it more alien to my way of thinking. I also like the Maxis plant skins, they're beautifully designed. I think the Enayla skins are awful and make sims look shiny and ill.
KatEnigma:
I decided to play around last night and used the age sims cheat to age Daisy Greenman down to a child after she'd transitioned to adult. It was late, though, so I closed down the game while she was at school. She doesn't have the plant skin, obviously, and she's missing the age meter, but if you hover where it should be, it tells you how many days are left until transition. Her needs are still that of a plant sim and her wants/other actions are that of a child. I got Rose a real job before that, and she made it fine through the workday, even while pregnant.
ETA: School must hold classes in a greenhouse or with the sunlamps. ;) She came home from school with her Sunlight still on 100% Her Water only down maybe 25%, and Love down a smidge. And the game/lot hasn't exploded.

I like Plantsims pretty much as they are, though I haven't made one of my own yet (I'm working in getting Puck in Veronaville to plantify). I think the lack of child and teen Plantsims actually makes sense from a game balance standpoint--if you park them under a sun lamp, they can train or perform just about any task indefinitely (provided they take occasional breaks to shower). I've currently got Daisy Greenman working in the medical field, carrying on a romance, and still spending ~12 hours a day making robots. If they had three more age groups in which to skill up, plus the career boost from graduating college, there'd be no reason to have anything but Plantsims in your neighborhood.
However, I wish they had more hairstyles than just the one.

I love the plant sims. I also have Enayla's defalt skin and I love it. I chose the lightest skin--that was before I knew that they all had dark skin. I am on my fifth generation spawned from Rose and I can tell you one thing--They are now born with full skill points. It is funny cause the tots do not need to learn, so they spend there time happily splashing in the toilet puddle in the bathroom. I put a heat lamp in there and I periodically send in sims to talk and play with them. Never had easier tots than that. They spend all their free time(when everyone is in bed) tending the garden-talking to the plants--I also have heat lamps in greenhouse. They rarly need water cause the sprinklers spritz them. They have opened up a produce store since they have so much produce. One thing though, one of the plant sims took a job in gaming and when he reached the top of the career, he worked at night. He left every day with full sunlight,and every night he came home ready to collapse. It would take him all night to recover. I don't know if it is job specific problem or it was because the job was at night. I had him quit and get a daytime job and that doesn't happen anymore. It also doesn't seem that pregnant plant sims get any depletion due to pregnancy--not that I have noticed.

How do you sell the produce? Do you sell the items piece by piece or can you sell them in bulk?
