      +villfer78 that's flawed logic. they aren't producing just one pineapple they produce many baby plants that then flower and fruit and also the baby plant that comes from the top of the harvested pineapple. do they take awhile to grow yes they do but you get much more than just a pineapple and can have different plants growing fruit at different times.

      For those living in very warm climates, like southern Florida or California, it costs people who have a yard nothing to grow pineapples. They can simply plant the tops in a sunny location in their yard and ignore them until the fruit is ready to harvest. Since the tops come with the pineapples which are purchased for food, it costs nothing to plant them.
      One family in Florida plants them around the base of the trees in their yard, making a the most attractive part of their otherwise minimal landscaping. They just pulled up the sod, planted the pineapple tops, and mulched. Using untreated shredded bark mulch, this suppresses nearly all weeds, and only needs to be replenished rarely. (Treated or colored mulch contains chemicals which could be absorbed by the plants and is not a good idea.) Their yard is much more attractive with the pineapple plants growing around the base of their trees, plus it is easier to mow.
      They could have purchased ornamental plants, but instead chose to plant pineapple tops - and now they replant the tops of the pineapples they harvest, and the 'pups' or shoots that form off the stalks of the pineapple plants, so it costs them nothing to keep it going, and takes only a few minutes of their time. Sounds pretty logical to me.

      I had the same problem. A Facebook friend told me to wrap the plant in a air tight plastic bag with a rotten apple. I did that and almost instantly i had my pineapple flower and my pineapple was almost twice the size as his. The mother plant won't produce again but it will give you other shoots that will. If you cut it off when is not ripe enough it won't ripped anymore. Wait till it's a golden color all over. I wish I could find my pictures of my pineapple pineapple. Good luck

    I got a pineapple top to grow once and had it indoors for a couple of years in an 8-inch pot. It didn’t grow a pineapple but it was very satisfying to see it grow. Unfortunately I read on the internet that you should water them from the top, letting water into the leaves. This resulted in the plant rotting and dying. Later I read that they are very sensitive to rotting, so you have to be careful not to overwater! Where I live it’s more cool and humid so that is a big problem. I hope to try again but subsequent attempts have failed to root. One day, I will have my pineapple. It will be ripe and sweet and tiny. I will be a proud plant parent.

      Mine took about 5 years as well but I didn't mind because honestly I completely neglected it. It stayed in a small pot outside. Never watered it, never fertilized it. Still it gave me fruit. Very forgiving plant. Waiting for my pineapple to ripen before I can eat it.

    Very well made video! I have just started my journey growing pineapples. My aunt gave me one from her organic garden last year. I almost killed it by planting it in my garden, but watching these videos, I realized it was too exposed to the heat.
    I repotted it into a container, put it in shade, and it's been growing ever since!
    I'm so excited to one day see the flower.
    I've tried starting a few myself, but so far no luck, which led me back to these videos. RUclips is awesome!

    I did the same thing with a nice leafy pineapple top. It took a while to take root, then I put it into a 1 gallon pot with some nice loose soil. After almost a year I transplanted the plant into a 5 gallon container and a few months later it started to flower. LONG STORY, after ANOTHER YEAR the pineapple fruit was as large as a cantaloupe. When it turned a nice yellow color and smelled great we harvested it. After a through washing my wife and I ate it SKIN AND ALL, so delicious. After harvest the mother plant has now developed two new heads, so who knows ? Maybe a double harvest in a couple years. Good things come to those who wait. And, yes we live in Sunny So. CAL.

      I think that you will find that the second set of fruits aren’t going to grow as big as the first one, but will be ok, but anything after that won’t amount to anything at all. Commercial pineapple plantations usually harvest the first pineapple, then the second ones (which are smaller even in commercial operations) and then they plow the plants under and replant.

About 3 months ago, I had cut the top of a pine apple and placed it in flower pot. I had no expectation but its seems to be doing well.

      I don't know if I would have transplanted the pineapple because for such a slow growing plant a constant flow of nutrients is important. So disturbing the roots might slow down growth significantly as the plant has to redirect energy from growing the fruit to re-establishing its root system. Just my thought. Excellent video by him though.

However, you could probably grow the plant indoors but not expect any actual, edible pineapples to grow.
