Mowing/Silage contracts?

Post by NotoriousWeber »

I'm playing on Elmcreek, and I'm like..4 years into my game save. I did mowing contracts on essentially all the AI grass fields in my first year. Since then, those fields have been stuck in the 1st growth stage. Fields 71, 13, 15,16, 17, 18, 19,

Has anyone else experienced this? Am I missing something that allows those fields to continue to grow to hopefully get some more mowing contracts? Or is this a bug that I should report?
The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.

I've had the same problem and filed a bug report with Giant's. Do the same BTW. I had enough money built up on my farm from doing other contracts and selling stuff that I could afford to buy the fields one by one and then resell them. I used the field care grass roller on the offending fields and it reset them to the growing stage. Other than that I'm not sure what to suggest except file the bug report and wait for then next patch.

i watch someone stream and he had said something about a mowing bug where you would get a contract to mow/bail a feild once and then nothing after. maybe the grass not growing back is the bug which would say why no more contracts after the first.

Yes it's definitely a bug. After I rolled the field and the grass re-grew I had another contract to mow/bale a couple months after.

Definitely fill out a bug report, as I just checked the status of mine and it's not even been assigned yet. The more bug reports the higher the priority will be to fix it.

I've encountered the same, all grass field owned by AI has stopped growing. They were good money too, shame it bugged out.

One other thing I've noticed is that when you use the grass landscape paint tool, it doesn't grow. I seem to recall on fs19 it would grow. It just continues looking like a freshly mowed layer on 22

Instead of paint, use plants, select meadow. That is proper grass.
