Thistle, Berries respawning. BUG?

[Blitz4]

What are the respawning rules for thistle and berries? I heard it was every 10 days but that's not correct. Is there still a bug in the game preventing spawns?

It seems like over 75% of the thistle just aren't respawning. Tested by running through an explored area then an unexplored area. Was seeing groups of 3-5 thistle in the unexplored and only 1-2 in the explored also the clusters were much more common in the unexplored area.

Thistle = 240 minutes - https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Thistle
Berries = 300 minutes - https://valheim.fandom.com/wiki/Berries

Hmmm...i have seen many res pawn, but never bothere to time it. If you folks confirm the issue through testing, you definitely should post a formal bug report.

They also need to be well clear of anything you build. At least workbenches, and probably all no-spawn 20m objects prevent them from respawning. So you can fence some in, but if you put a torch down, or a bed, or a workbench, any no-spawn item, within 20m of them, they won't respawn.

Some of my berries bush stopped producing when i chopped trees and destroyed one or two of the multi bush drops

It got really bad now. Two people from our group went out to get thistle, ran through two different explored areas on two separate islands for 45-50 minutes and neither found one thistle. Neither place was visited in the past 10 days. I even went into unexplored black forest area for 20 minutes and didn't find one thistle.

The cold & wet & lack of rested bonus & increased mob spawns at night made it "full of fun"

EDIT: I had to cheat in thistle. I told the group. "The games not finished, we'll beat the final boss and replay after the game's 100% released. We'll only cheat in crops that we can't grow here at home."

In my seed, they spawn massive. They have to reduce it, at all seeds.

It's one of those EA bugs that might be due to an old save, use of a mod, or something that I'm sure they'll fix in the next 2 major updates.

We had to cheat to get thistle. Whatever, after we beat the game we're planning on waiting until it's released. We already are using mods and the wiki just to progress and have fun, now we're cheating to spawn stuff in. I can't spend hours boating to new areas just to run around to collect a resource from an area I don't need to revisit when there's a chance that nothing will be there as was the case when I last tested it.

There is much probably a timer bug, because of Also in my seed Thistle, mushrooms and Berries don't respawn fully.

My own experience of this is:

Out in the wild, things grow back. It may be the case that some don't but I have not noticed this.

In and around my base, I have issues. Some bushes respawn, some don't. The only thing I can say with the ones that don't respawn is that I have levelled the ground near them, as in right next to them, whereas the ones that do respawn have sufficient room between them and any modifications.
