CtfG has some awesome tendencies. Lots of cheaty hacks, but definitely talent.
Yep, I'm proud to have a few of her unawesome awesome hacks. ;D
Or is that awesome unawesome hacks? hmm...

Ok, first of all you don't want harvesting to be faster until you already have that gold gardening badge. After that there's no advantage to slow harvesting. But once you get the gold badge, harvesting is fairly fast anyway.
I guess people don't remember the book from the 60's, "The Secret Life of Plants" where they were reporting on Russian research into stuff like talking to plants to make them better.

I'm pretty sure the speed of the harvesting itself is both independent of badge level and independent of the gain from harvesting, which is one-shot and not dependent on the time it takes to harvest a plant.

It seems to be at least partly personality-based, i.e., active Sims harvest faster than lazy ones, just as you would expect. I agree that the badge level doesn't seem to make any difference (unlike, say, cash register skills that speed up as you gain badges).

There is no evidence to support that, either: The animations are canned and the same regardless of a sim's activity level. However, if multi-harvesting using Macrotastics, or manual piloting, Active sims will accomplish any set of tasks faster simply because it does not take them 3 hours to get to the right location!
