I started when my neighbor was moving and said I could have her plants. The new owner pulled them all up and piled them in the trash pickup across the street. I have gotten 2 or 3 pineapples every year and they reproduce. Last year I got 8 plus the 2 I gave away. I now have over 30 plants. Your video is very good!

Thank you SO much Steve. That's exactly what i'm going for. It was never my intention to becom a KZbinr, But 11 years ago I joined a group for men looking to better themselves. We would challenge each other and then hold each other accountable for completing those challenges. Starting a KZbin channel was one the challenges given to me. At first I had no idea what I was doing (or even why, really), and my early videos were pretty terrible, but I watched a lot of other KZbinr's videos, not to emulate them, but to find what was missing in them so that I could make better videos, myself. The two things I found to be almost universally missing from mostYT videos is basic info for beginners, and follow-up videos, showing the results. Everyone shows the planting of a seed but very few show the seed sprouting, and no one shows that tree, years later, producing fruit. Thanks again, amigo.

First thanks so much. Detailed and easy to understand. Second, I would like to send a photo of my pineapple growing in a 5 gal bucket in sub tropical Andes. According to your video it is no where near harvesting. It is also a smaller variety and never turns yellow. the leaves are red and yellow striped. This is the second growth on an original crown. I cut off the fruit. chopped it back, threw in more compost and just watered it. Notice the suckers growing. this did not happen on the first growth. It is very exciting. Third, other than compost about twice a year, I just watered once a week in the very very hot dry season and not at all in the rainy season and threw in my daily overnight soaked coffee grounds, maybe once a month ( I wander aground the yard and share the grounds amongst numerous plants). This new pineapple is less than a year from original harvest. It is fun. It is stunning. Lets celebrate.

Best of the gardening video that I ever ever have seen. At the end of it I have a feeling that "today I learnt something" Sir, I removed the crown and allowed it to dry (in shade) for 3to 4 days and then I submerged in glass of water. The crown has developed lovely roots. I will be planting it in mud tomorrow after the lunar eclipse passes, specially as tomorrow I turn 65. Wish you had said a few words on the type of soil.

@probablynotabigtoe94076 жыл бұрын
Your leaf yellowing is a sign of overall nutrient deficiency. Iron also shows because it is the first nutrient to get locked out at a raising soil ph, which is more common in potted plants...most tap water has a ph 7.8-8.2, so watering can raise the ph of the soil, your nutrients(contains acids) are also very limited so they get used up quickly, and some nutrients get flushed out the bottom of the pot from a normal watering. A properly balanced nutrient(organic or not) contains the proper chemicals and acids that your soil needs to feed the roots. Giving your plants not only water but regular feedings is a necessity to fast and healthy plant growth.

Good video for beginners to understand more about growing pineapples. HOWEVER, it should be known that pineapples take in their nourishment thru their leaves, not their roots, so best to spray/foliar fertilizer on top the leaves, and do this at night as that is when pineapples use the fertilizer.
@Sheikyerbouti83 жыл бұрын
Sorry. Very incorrect. Since pineapples are such an important foodcrop, there are a plethora of scientific articles on the subject of nutrient uptake by pineapples, and the importance of maintining soil conditions to maximize uptake of nutrients (yes, through their roots). I encourage you to google "nutrient uptake in pineapples". I've consulted with biologists who spent their lives studying and growing this single species, and what they taught me, also contradicts what you said. Pineapples like almost all other plants CAN absorb nutrients through foliar aplication. It does work, but that doesn't mean that they don't take up nutrients through their roots.

What did you observe that informed you to add iron and not nitrogen? Also have you looked into and/or tried adding epsom salt to your soil? Rumor has it it helps makes nutrients more available. I can't remember which nutrients exactly but I want to guess magnesium and maybe nitrogen and phosphorous. Regardless I worked on a farm and they had a natural soil blend that included epsom I would mix up for all of our plants, both potted and in beds, and everything thrived! Potatoes looooved that mix.

@Sheikyerbouti86 жыл бұрын
I show it in the video. I root them in soil. Normally I plant them right away, but I've also let them sit too. Either way I get roots. This is because I'm starting with healthy robust crowns. The crowns on the fruits at the grocery store are frequently dehydrated and kinda banged up. Those need to be planted immediately. Rooting in water is a waste of time, and more likely to rot the crown.

100% with you on the fertilizer. While there are some benefits to organic gardening, conscientious use of fertilizer is perfectly fine. I even use some fungicide and pesticide if absolutely necessary.

Thank you for making a video of actually knowing how to grow pineapple. I do have a small critic, yes don't cut the tops off. I twist instead of snapping the tops off like you do but you are spot on with pulling off the small leafs from the tops for starting new plants. Yes there are new roots ready to grow hidden by those leaves so pull them off. I wait a day before planting the tops so the tear can dry heal like a potato start. I seen some wood grass at 6:15 and 6:22. Must be a clip from June to August because wood grass is dormant/dried down in January.

Been growing pineapple for years in a giant pot on my balcony in sunny Australia. I learned something new from your video. Thank you.
