One of the best gardening videos I’ve seen. So step by step and easy to understand! Very awesome. Love all your videos!!! I’m going to give this a try.

Holy Pineapple! Everything you ever wanted to know about growing these delicious things. Thank you my lady.

Enjoy your show, I’m growing pineapple in Canada on Vancouver island, all my neighbours had palm trees so I went with pineapples.

[@colleencourtney4484]

Did you use the toxic "Miracle Grow" in your soil too?

How do you protect them from the frost? Every year I try, that first cold night catches me off guard and kills my plant.

This is the most in depth and thorough pineapple growing video I've ever seen. Thanks very much. ❤

[@chocolate_chip21]

I live in the northeast and never considered growing pineapples. I think you gave me some inspiration to do a little indoor growing!

[@Uiopuiop123]

I live in Vermont and started a pineapple plant from a grocery store crown. 2 years later it is sitting on my porch (summertime only, winter indoors), still not growing a baby pineapple. It takes a ridiculous amount of time here but it makes a fun houseplant.

[@midnull6009]

This is unrealistic vid, klickbait. Because in order for pinaples to actually form you need 2 years of warm uninterrupted weather. Else they'll just be a bush. You "can" technically grow them inside temp controlled climate. But it still takes 2 years from crown to fruit and 1 more year to actually pick the fruit. So like 3 years total.

[@prima808]

Did you miss the part where she said it would take years to grow from a cut off fruit top?? She gave 3 ways to grow it and said growing from the shoots produce fruit fastest out of the 3 methods. She also acknowledged that gardening produce requires patience and if you're not willing to wait then it's not something for you (not verbatim). The video shouldn't be considered clickbait, since it disclosed info about growing expectations for yielding crops.

[@arthurmanderson4892]

Who doesn't love Pineapple? That's awesome. I see a catch, clean, cook in the future with some grilled fish and fresh pineapple.

[@mhansen111]

DANG IT! Now I have to figure out how to grow these in Missouri. I'm totally jonesing for fresh, sun ripened pineapples.

[@55reniram]

Follow your dreams and keep on growing! Fishing and gardening can be both frustrating and therapudic and definitely an exercise in patience. Love the vids.

[@alfredxavier5880]

I’ve grown pineapples for maybe 4-5 years. Although she said pineapples have a shallow root system I’ve grown some from small to maybe 15-20 gallon containers. I never transplanted them but it seems it’s good for transporting them inside but the bigger the container the more vast the leaves became and much longer and the fruit is bigger in size. I feel I treat them with about the same nutrition but I do feel I maybe add more food to the bigger size containers.

[@matthewtrapp7756]

These videos are awesome. You are very knowledgeable I had no idea all this about pineapples. Make a gardening channel please you are a natural explaining stuff.

[@stephenx2857]

egg shells don't do much of anything added directly to soil. the calcium won't be bio available for years. If you want to add calcium to the soil. can heat egg shells, or even oyster shells/crab chitin in a firepit (get like a large steel can tomato sauce comes in or big can of peaches) the heat changes the chemical make up of the calcium can then dissolve it in vinegar. and the resulting paste/slurry can dilute with water and have direct available calcium for plants.

[@shdwbnndbyyt]

Bake the shells (egg or oyster) above 350F -- the fire pit will work fine -- to degrade the protein binding the calcium carbonate in the shell. Then run them through a blender until it is powder to increase the surface area.... The powder will then dissolve many times faster even in water.. Too much heat can change the shells to quicklime though... adding the vinegar causes it to react converting it ro a calcium acetate salt.

[@cyberwolf6667]

100 percent correct

[@TheBOG_OrganicGardening]

Came to add this comment. I add egg shells to my compost heap, but that gets hot for prolonged periods and will break the shells down to calcuim.

[@bringthemesstv]

Can you just use calcium powder?

[@stephenx2857]

@@bringthemesstv I don't know what that is. but basically... just because it's "calcium" doesn't mean it would be bio available for plants. you would want something specifically for plants, or to use a process known to make the calcium uptake for plants.

[@thespiritualcoffeehouse]

Great video!!!!! I think you can work crowns many ways as I have always stick my crowns straight into the soil after cutting and I have never pull off all the fruit. Thankfully, I have never had one not root, grow and fruit. I have a large pineapple garden along with mango trees, sour sop trees, star fruit, Haas Avocados, Oranges, Myers lemons, lychee tree, jackfruit and many others in Fort Lauderdale. It is nice to see you doing other things besides fishing. All of my crown came from Robert is here fruit stand in Key Largo

Nice video. The best one on pineapples that I've seen, and that after seeing a few from commercial growers.

I think I'll give it another go using the information I gained from this video. Than you so much!

Great video! I just started growing pineapple plants from crowns this year. I did not let mine callus over however....I pulled the bottom leaves off and I stuck it in dirt right away. I just watered from the top - down into all of the leaves very lightly. I never watered or soaked the dirt and all four have at least doubled in size already. I probably could have used better dirt however. Next time I will have to used the blend you use. It really is pretty amazing how pineapples grow! It's hard to believe that a cactus looking plant that comes off of the top of a pineapple grows a pineapple!
