Maybe the trees need therapy?

MyPrecious:
I am pulling my hair out trying to look after the trees and wonder if anyone else is feeling the same way?

I have an apple tree (and I do garden so I know EA Blames suck at it); I allow it sun, rain, hail and snow, a generous helping of birds and when I remember I prune it once IN THE AUTUMN …after the harvest. It's never once in 15 years needed spraying and it still ruins the grass by liberally dropping apples all over it. I don't talk to it…ok maybe a mumble that's mainly swearing while harvesting but I'm confidant that it's secure and needs no reassurance from me. So why on Earth do the game trees become gibbering wreaks after 24 hours of no chat?  ???

*Rant over, sorry I just had to.*

Probably because if they were as maintenance free as the original Maxian trees, there wouldn't be much to do, or to stop you from planting them by the hojillions across the lot. The spraying is a gimme, though: I mean, come on. Everyone knows The Sims is full of bugs! Is it any surprise they will get into the trees?

amileegirl:
I found that every time you tend the trees their health increases and you can get them up by autumn to be able to harvest mouthwatering fruit before they go dormant for the winter.   However, if you want to harvest every 5 days which is their approximate flower/fruit cycle then talking is a rapid way to recharge them for multiple harvests.

*groan*  I knew somebody was going to make that pun sooner or later.

Assmitten:
Twojeffs' perfect gardens hack is allowing me my hojillions of trees. Once I realized EA wasn't going to create plants that were like actual plants, I decided to cheat it up.
