So, I'll often have periods of unexpected hiatus, and will disappear for large periods of time at once. When I return, I'll often find that all my plants and pumpkins have withered

My suggestion is a way to mass remove these withered items without having to manually destroy each one--especially once you're in a bigger house, it's extremely tedious to have to destroy each of my 7 pumpkins and 9 plants one by one.

My thoughts are maybe a button that allows you to destroy them in one go, or maybe simply coding in with the "harvest" button that will also destroy all withered plants/pumpkins.
