I'm on my fourth pineapple top and I finally got a good root system going! It was frustrating and I wanted to give up many times but im so glad I didn't! Don't give up people!
How long did it take for a baby pineapple to finally sprout? I started my pineapple top in water almost 2 years ago. And it's been in the ground for over a year. The top keeps growing but still no baby pineapple.
Omg!!! Thanks so much. I’ve tried several times watching other videos and never worked. After doing exactly as described in this video I was able to get my plant grow!! Thanks so much again. Subscribing !!
It's strange how I always just assumed that pineapples grew on trees even though I'd never heard of a pineapple tree. So anyway now I know. Thanks for sharing your wisdom
I actually grew some pineapple from seeds. It took a long time but they're doing great! Last fall I started and now they're about the size of a top. Dark green and full.
@@stephenremo9200 What I did is put them in water on a heat mat under grow lights in about a few weeks to a month they will sprout in the water. Then transfer to where you're going to plant them.

I knew a video would be much clearer than just written instructions. Thank you for helping me to avoid the pitfalls I would have encountered if I'd planted the crown the way I THOUGHT I was supposed to.

Look if you can pull out one of the leaves. When you can, your top is not viable. Sometimes the sellers sell it with the heart cut out. These are better to avoid due to having a big chance to rot, but they are possibly viable. 0:30 i think the hearth of that top is cut out. That explains why there is coming a little shoot later on.

It's sooooo much easier than the video I posted last summer. Just make sure the soaking bulb stays warm... 85F+. These guys are tropical and won't send out roots if kept too cold! You got this! :)
Thank you so much for this very educational video. I bought two super delicious pineapples from Hawaii. OMG wer they the absolute BEST ever tasting pineapples. So now I have one potted and one rooting. The warmest place right now is on top of my refrigerator. We've had a very cold winter/spring in Southern California. So my question is this, once it goes to a bigger pot, where can it be placed? And how tall does it grow in the first 8-12 months?
This is the way I was talking about before Dave....it works every time, trust me! Just make sure to keep the plant/soil/water at 80-90F during the whole process! How's tricks buddy? Been waiting for your new video to drop!

Do you have to change the water when propagating? Have you harvested them? How many fruits did you get from one plant and how many months did it take? Thank you.
@@GHumpty1965 hi Kelly, I have not had to yet, as the plants always grew just fine.... But it is a thought and I do wonder if the extra oxygen could help...
Great presentation on how to grow pineapples. Please explain why to water from below. Do I place holes in the bottom of the pot, or watering,from bottom is just to keep the roots cool.
I’ve bought one and when I cut off the bottom part, it already had roots growing along with a growth on top already and so I peeled some away anyways and planted it directly into damp soil. Let’s see if I get a growth spurt! 😅
Thanks for the update video as I tried to grow a pinapple from your first video and it died 😭☹️ so I’ve got another pineapple and I hope to see better results this time 😍
But aloe vera has a lot of juice in it. But they are so comparable because for example the existing leaves get longer from the place where it is attached to the plant. Tip: you can see the sanity of the plant by inspecting the leaves. If they are small, the plant is a little bit weaker, but if the new parts of the leaves get bigger, it gets stronger. Leaves generated in the winter are thinner than leaves generated in the summer. By some plants (again including pineapple) you can see it by watching the stem. Bigger parts of the stem are better than thinner parts.
I have heard not to use colored newspaper in gardening? Chemicals from ink are bad. Could you line with plain paper towels? Interesting and informative video.

Any suggestions on how to keep the pineapple at the proper temperature if placed indoors on a window sill? I live in FL and placing it outside right now is not an option with the excessive heat.
Great question! I hope to visit a pineapple plantation this coming winter! They are mostly propagated from runners (like strawberries) and slips (tiny offshoots near the base). I don't think commercially they harvest the tops.
It’s been 7 weeks since I placed my pineapple top in water to sprout. I have roots growing along the bottom in the water but still don’t see a new shoot growing either in the center of the leaves or along the outside of the plant. Is it ok to pot it in soil yet or should I wait?
You referred me over to this video. So there's no need to let it dry for a couple days after you pull off the leaves? I'm going to do another one so I'll put it directly in the water
Well it's been a month since I planted my pineapple top. It's surving up against my patio slider door (we have a major bug invasion outside). I did what you said and used organic soil. This proved a BIG problem since the organic soil came with gnats. And I assume fungus gnats because the inside bag of organic soil is now covered in white fungus (a month after opening the bag). And my pineapple plant is being invaded with these pesky gnats. I went to Home depot and it was suggested to use a product called Sevin. I have to babysit my pineapple plant so much to eradicate the gnats. So now I just potted my 2nd pineapple plant, but not with organic soil. So do you have a suggestion on how to keep gnats and other bugs away?
It looks as though my pineapple plant is getting moldy where the foliage/ leaves are after only 11 days. I’ve been changing the water regularly. Am I doing something wrong and will the plant still survive?
Great video! Will try it with my kids by summer. I'm wondering if it will survive indoors during fall and winter. Also, why water it from below and not directly? Thanks!
Hi, thanks for watching! Yes, I actually have to bring the plants in during the winter....they are totally tropical and I don't live in a warm area. As for watering, I always water bare soil from below for 2 reasons. 1) the soil can soak up as much as it needs without leeching out the bottom before it can be absorbed fully and 2) watering from above blasts soil everywhere! Not good for a newly potted plant! Happy growing!
That all depends on where you live. If you live near the equator, you can likely grow pineapple year-round. For me, I can only leave my pineapple plants outside for maybe 3-4 months in the summer, then they have to come indoors.
Hello, been trying to do this for a while and I have been using distilled water, is that good to use or am I doing it wrong? The green keeps going brown and never rooting.
About 2 years. But worth it because it is almost effortless. When we lived in S. Florida, we planted all of our pineapple tops and after 2 years we never had to buy another one. We had those suckers growing everywhere! (Also counted as free landscaping, lol!!) When we sold our house I think we got a little more $$ because buyers were thrilled to have this ready resource!
Well it depends on how well you care it. If you take good care of it, it should flower in 2 to 3 years. If you don't take good care of it, it can be 4 to 5 years, but remember that every plant doesn't trive well if you don't repot it. If you never repot it, it can take up many years if you have a lot of luck, but it should never flower.
@@TourPace a good way to know if your plant is very strong: the existing leaves get longer from the place where it is attached to the plant.

Just watch the blades on the living plant once it gets larger. They are often serrated and quite sharp. Like an Aloe vera plant.
