How to garden all year round. Very handy for the urban Sim who wants to grow some plants. New Sims 3 gardening options: greenhouse and tractor. Apr 09, 2012 Buying and Setting Props. Lanette diligently works on her singing career and hits Level 4 after a couple weeks. She's been saving up and has about $1500, which is plenty to set a stage the way.
Looking for a quiet spot to get away from the world? Chez Meline might just be the place for you! This charming garden cottage is set up and ready for a single sim or couple, and the office could be converted to a small second bedroom if desired.
The landscaping is the star of this property. The previous owner lovingly cultivated a lush, informal garden, spilling over with roses, daisies, and greenery. There are lots of private nooks tucked amongst the plants for some alone time, as well as a patio for entertaining.

Price and size
Furnished: $41,015
Unfurnished: $26,092
Lot size: 30x20
Also, though the house is built on a rise, the lot edges are completely flat, and will not distort any world terrain when placed on a flat lot.
EPs
Seasons, Supernatural and Pets are required. Generations is used for one or two small deco items, and is not required to retain the overall look of the lot.
CC
Just two items, both of which can be replaced without too much fuss!
First is QBUILDERZ's wonderful Raise the Roof set, specifically the orange scalloped roof.
Second is armiel's Build Set DIY, which is used to construct the fencing and arbour which surround the patio.
Please note
I think it's fairly obvious, but this lot uses a lot of plants. I have done my best to space things appropriately and not give into excesses, but there's still probably over 100 plants (not counting trees) on this lot. For this reason, take caution if you have a slow computer. I personally have no issue running this lot, but just wanted to give others appropriate warning so they can make an informed decision about whether to download.
Also, there is very extensive MOO used in the landscaping, and the retaining wall by the stairs is built using CFE. Don't mess with them if you're not confident you can put them back.

It works really great except it doesn't water a few of the custom crops out there. It is great the way it is, but I was wondering if you could make it so it only goes off every 4 or 6 hours or something? It seems to be going off every few seconds because of it sensing my plants need watering, which is good but on my computer the timing sometimes seems to cause lag or freeze ups. Maybe that is due to another mod or the simulation lag that EA still hasn't really ever fixed, though.
And this isn't an issue but breaks immersion a little, that it is always going off when my sims are gardening. You would think they would get wet and be upset but they stay cool as a cucumber. I guess that's a good thing though lol.
Lastly, could you make a version maybe as a separate item in build with a smaller animation and/or no puddles? I tried using it in my apartment and it went right through the walls. Not a big deal, but again, immersion. I still love the mod and I'm not trying to pick on it because I could hug you for making it period and if you don't have the time for these changes it's fine! No one else ever made a sprinkler mod and it should've been something IN the game from the START!
