Hoe isn't working?

[quaint shard]

I'm trying to use the hoe on these spots and it's not registering. The hoe works fine on my farm, but isn't digging up these spots in the world.

Im on xbox.

Hi meg! Are you playing on Xbox X/S/PC? 😮
So if you try to use Hoe for Clover in other areas (like in Town, Forest, etc.), it works normally, only in the Gardenlane area that had the issue?

I see! May I ask how many in-game days have you played before the issue happened? So, after you restart the game is the issue also fixed? 😮

i'm currently on year 2, the first time it happened it was in year 1 however, i cant remember exactly when, but the most recent was year 2 spring 24

Hmm, if the issue reappears, could you please let us know if you can get the Clover in other areas?
If you still remember, could you also describe your in-game activities before the issue occurred? Did you dive in the underwater before that? :0
