DID you check out the lite versions? you could try adding the nat div with the north,depending on what other mods you might be using. the north did have a delay to the plants. gatherers weren't finding much til june when i did run the north below the nat div.have you checked out the RK EC by RED?changes the look of the grass but there is a drop off of the gathered foods in winter.and the grass is more mixed meaning less meadows.
