Why does time not pass when I'm not there?

Until before the update, I planted before going to sleep and when I came back I had a lot of work to do
Now the game is dead and when I come back there is nothing to farm
For people who work and want to play for a while before going to sleep, this means ruin.
The game lost all meaning if I have to stay connected to progress
Unfortunately this game is destined to ruin if they maintain a policy like this

Plants require water, if there's no hydro boost effect on the plot then yeah every in-game day you have to manually water the crop / plant for it to grow.

It's been that way since the game's release. You have to be logged on for your plants to grow. If you're offline, you get one growth cycle and that's it.

I have potatoes and tomatoes planted, I only water once after planting

Yes, that's what I read while searching on this topic.
What seems strange to me is that until before the update, those cycles were completed anyway but much slower
Now everything just stays stagnant like the moment I disconnect
The trees continue their cycle normally
