I bought a pineapple yesterday, and I've always heard about how making a pineapple grow is easy. I want to know if you've ever had success with making a pineapple plant grow! I've looked at a few different websites... Some recommend letting the plant take root in a glass before actually planting it, others let the plant dry for a week before planting it - what have you done that worked? Do you have any advice for me?

I'm headed to go to take pics of mine for you

Keep in mind my garden is not weeded and is a wreck.

I just set them in loose dirt. I don't bury them. I just press them in. I cut them off and do it same day. You have to have more than one to fertilze and get a pineapple. I know Summer's husband had one that got a pineapple.

I had one as a house plant many moons ago..... same technique as Lil... cut off the top 20% and pushed into a plant pot... That's it....

Well it sounds easy enough... How long ago did you plant those Lil? Will the plant get as big indoors? Is it a good idea to have one inside a tiny dorm room or will it get too big?

I'm not sure it gets deep roots you might be able to plant it in a terra cotta saucer. The two are about 1.5 years old and the single one is older.

Maybe we should see if there is a 'Chia Pineapple'. That would work for you.

My mom has a pineapple plant and it took several years before it started producing pineapples. And I don't mean one or two, I mean most of life it didn't produce anything and I'm almost 22. What she did was she cut the top off and pealed off the bottom fronds until she exposed roots, then used a combination of sand and soil, mostly sand, and planted it. it got pretty big. You might want to try doing a bit of research into exactly what pineapple plants like. And as for them belonging in Florida, my mom's was planted and grew in a pot in Connecticut. As well as a six foot orange tree in a pot.

They seem to do pretty good in lava.

Too much water, Neige.

Crank back on the water to encourage root growth.

I've heard much the same about rooting an avocado seed, that most will just rot, but the one that does take root is worth the effort.
