How to Grow a Pineapple at Home - First You’ll Need:
* The crown (top) of the pineapple
* A pint canning jar or other glass container
* A 12-inch diameter pot
* Potting soil that drains well
Then, the Planting Directions:
* Cut the crown from the pineapple just above where the stem comes out of the top of the body
* Remove any of the fruity part of the pineapple from the crown
* Pull off the outer leaves of the crown, leaving 6 to 8 big leaves near the center
* Set this shoot aside for 2-3 days to dry out
* Put the shoot in water (about 1/2-inch deep; water shouldn’t touch the leaves)
* Place it in a bright spot out of direct sunlight for a few weeks to encourage roots to develop
* After you see the roots beginning to grow, transplant the crown to a medium-size pot containing soil that drains well
* Place the pot in a bright location and water your plant daily
* Once the young plant is established, pour a cupful of well-balanced, diluted, water-soluble liquid fertilizer into the top of the plant once a month.
Your plant should develop a red bud after about 12 months. From this stage, the pineapple fruit will begin to develop and in another 3-6 months, it should be ready to harvest and enjoy.
i think we should all try!
we will all have our very own pineapple ... sometime around the fifth season...lol
