Patchy The Straw Man was introduced with The Sims 4: Seasons and is a really fun addition to in-game gardening. He can be purchased in build\/buy mode for \u00a7450 and is able to come to life if you take the right steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just like the flower bunny, Patchy is actually just a normal sim under his costume and has random features and an aspiration, but it is much more fun to keep his costume irregular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patchy's build mode biography states that 'Patchy the straw man is made of straw. He has no hands. Not even a paw. But Patchy has patches and a big pumpkin hat. Patch it up near the plants and they'll grow just like that! All the crows love Patchy, he's a funny old rascal. Why is Patchy so scratchy? Because straw is in vogue. \"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make Patchy alive<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When your sim has its first interactions with irregulars, they will not be the most exciting. They will only be able to chat or examine snippets and the relationship will develop relatively slowly. You'll need to talk to Patchy about 10 times to get him to become your friend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you can make Patchy your friend, he will occasionally come to life and do a lot of your gardening for you. It's a great thing to have around because he won't be alive all day, so you can get what you need from Patchy and then say hello.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Patchy finally comes to life, you'll even unlock her scarecrow outfit for your sims to wear, which could be a fun thing to dress up as for the harvest festival!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can Patchy do?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As time goes on and your sim continues to build a relationship with Patchy, your sim can ask for gardening advice and get a nice boost in their gardening skills since Patchy is well educated in gardening. I have found that you can ask him for advice once or twice a day and it can really boost your sim's gardening skills quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Patchy is alive for those few hours a day, he will always prefer to do the gardening and get the job done first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also click Patchy and check the pockets for seeds and this can help your sim quickly find a ton of seeds that you may not have found before, which can help them complete their plant collection. I noticed that this has a cooldown of about 4 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Becoming romantic with irregular<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Usually Patchy will be around for 4-5 hours and can be a great friend to your sim, if you want him to be, you could even have your sim in a romantic relationship with Patchy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can form this relationship just as you would with any other sim, focus first on making Patchy your friend, then start working on building a romantic relationship and eventually you should be able to woohoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can even choose Patchy as the parent of your children if you wish! Unfortunately, your child won't come out with a pumpkin head and a straw hat, he's just a normal kid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I haven't had any luck convincing Patchy to move into my house without using cheats, but maybe it's better to have him around for just a few hours a day (hehe).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Final thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Gardening in The Sims 4 is a really great way to make money from home and if you can get a Patchy The Straw Man you can earn money from gardening without ever having to lift a finger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your sim won't even need real friends! This means that your sim can become a hermit who just talks to their scarecrow, how fun is that?
