Same here. I have banana water for watering my plants snd was told to put a cutting of the perl down into the center for the gas, but I'm going to water it down the center and see what happens.
It worked! It hasn't even been a week since I used the banana method and I'm already seeing clearly a new pineapple coming up through the center of the plant. It was clearly not there before and now it's there. It looks just like the one in this video with beautiful red leaves around. I can't believe it! OMG. That's why I don't just watch Dr. OBi's videos, I subscribe!
@@arminmoosaei7464 I keep the banana in water overnight (about 12 hours). After the first application, I soak it for another 12 hours and use it one more time.
this is great, I'm not able to get the chemical you showed in your previous video so this alternative is much better for me. I also read that apples produce ethylene as they ripen so I'm try that at the moment but this method looks good too
do i do this like once a day for a week or two? What time of year should i do this? I have a big 2yr old pinaple plant, but its now almost october and I'm in So. California. I'm planing on bringing the plant indoors when its gets cold and then trying your method next febrary so it can flower and grow the fruit all next summer. is that a good plan?
That sounds like a good plan. You don't want to move the plants when the fruit is developing since it may break. I normally apply the banana water every 12 hours for 2-3 days. That's all you have to do.
Yes, you can use a glass jar. The plumber tape is not mandatory. It just helps to keep the jar airtight. If your jar is already airtight, you don't need it.
This is such great information, thank you! My question is, when do you suggest doing this? I followed one of your previous videos, and now have about 8 young pineapple plants, but I'm not sure when I should try to force them to fruit. Is it by height, by age, a little of both?
Hey I live in Canada and am growing pineapple inside as we have cold weather. In the second week in may I’m going to put it out side as temps will stay above 15-20 degrees Celsius I’m just wondering on how big should my pot be for my plant? Also would you say that the banana trick will work on Indoor growing plants also?
Good day sir!The pineapple plants are +2yrs & yet the number of leaves are not increasing much,leaves turning yellow/brown. I change the soil,add fertilizer and water them only when they are dry-depending on the weather. Plz.help!Thanks
I lived on the Big Island in Kona for 15 years. There you just put em in the cracks of the lava rock and we produced 10 lb white pineapples. Now I live in so. west Florida. 3 years and my pineapples haven't flowered. Will try your method using banana water. Hope it works!
I mostly induce between 8-10 months. I live in warm climate and my plants grow really fast. A good indicator to know when to induce is using the number of leaves. If the plant has at least 30 long leaves, then they can be induced to flower successfully.
Thank you for the information. My question is about the pups(baby pineapple plants on the bottom of pineapple) should the pups be removed for a bigger pineapple? Thanks

In my other video I placed a small piece of calcium carbide in the middle of the plant to induce flower formation. When you pour water over calcium carbide it creates gasses which causes it to bubble. In this video I used banana instead of calcium carbide for the same purpose.
I can confirm this method worked for me.
YES ME AS WELL!!! Literally did it once and forgot and it still flowered.
I am going to try , I have my pineapple over 3year

How time banana in water? Repeat once spray in plant?

I’ve got some
Ripe plantain I’m going to try this today
I've not tried plantains before but I'm sure it'll work. Keep us posted on the outcome.
I love you Dr Obi!!!!!
Thanks I will do it's treatment fir my pineapple plant in the house
You're welcome! Hope it works out well for you.
Thank you so much.I now have three pineapples flowering
Wonderful! Glad to read about your success story 😀
I wish I could live in a sunny tropical place. I would grow so much pineapple it would be comical. Appreciate your videos!
Glad you like them! I love pineapple too. 😊
You can grow them indoors on your windowsill, so no need to let your climate hold you back from growing them!
Wow, incredible. Thanks for the great video and helpful information!!
this is great, I'm not able to get the chemical you showed in your previous video so this alternative is much better for me. I also read that apples produce ethylene as they ripen so I'm try that at the moment but this method looks good too
Great inexpensive advice my friend, thanks heaps mate,from Adelaide South Australia 😊
Glad to help. Happy gardening 😊.
Jo ma man! this is amazing! thank you very much! greetings from the Pacific Coast in Colombia!
You're most welcome. Much love ❤️!
Awesome video ✌️😎....And I am following your instructions as we speak.... you are a very knowledgeable man.....Thank You sir ✌️..
Glad to help. You're most welcome.
How often do you,water the pineapple plant with the banana water
Every 12 hrs for about 3 times. You can use the same banana. Just replace the water after pouring it out.
Thank you!
@@dr_obisgardenthank you
Wow! This is first class knowledge. Thank you for sharing
You are very welcome. Thanks for your support.
Thank you!
You're most welcome 🙏
You're most welcome 🙏
Thank you kind Sir!
Very welcome!
Thank you for that knowledge I used carbide to make flower
You're welcome. Glad it worked for you.
I use apples to force my pineapples to flower. I'm going to try the banana method.
Love it. Should I keep watering the plant every day with this water until the flower comes out?
That won't be necessary. Three days should be fine.
I use an apple for ethylene gas,inside a large clear plastic bag I put the whole plant and apple 🍎.
I've heard of that method but never tried it. It difficult find a plastic bag big enough to cover my plants.
What if to soak apple and pour d apple water into it similarly to the one shown above wiht the banana.?
Great!andnatural ,thank you ,for tip and I’ll try.
God bless you and use you mightly!
Thankyou Sir!
Great Video! Thank You
Thanks. You're also welcome.
Thank you for your information 😊👍
You're welcome
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Interesting and informative 🇯🇲 💯
I am going to try it, because i have three biig pineapples that i have planted for over four years now it has not bear fruits.
Four years is a long time. They should be fruiting by now. This method can help. Give it a shot. Best wishes. 😊

What is it a good time to use this method? Spring?
Thank you so much for this. After how many months of planting can we induce flowering?
You're most welcome. In a tropical setting, 8-10 months is a good time to initiate forcing.
Great video but when is the best time of year to start this process
Can you use a glass jar 🫙 and is the plumber tape mandatory
Yes, you can use a glass jar. The plumber tape is not mandatory. It just helps to keep the jar airtight. If your jar is already airtight, you don't need it.
@@dr_obisgarden thank you! I will try …I really appreciate your creativity.
Thank you
Hello i live in the bahamas what happened if i leave the water fa 3 days
Hi sir can I use soak banana skin water to apply to the pineapple plant please reply thank you
It may be possible to use banana peel. However, the peel produces only small amounts of ethylene so you have to use more peels.
This is such great information, thank you! My question is, when do you suggest doing this? I followed one of your previous videos, and now have about 8 young pineapple plants, but I'm not sure when I should try to force them to fruit. Is it by height, by age, a little of both?
30 leaves 😅
By size. Do it when the plant have about 30 leaves.
@@dr_obisgarden thank you very much!
Hi i cant lisen voice this video😢how time banana in water???

Hey I live in Canada and am growing pineapple inside as we have cold weather.

I’m just wondering on how big should my pot be for my plant?
Also would you say that the banana trick will work on Indoor growing plants also?
Only one application is sufficient? Do we need to reapply again if it rains after application?
3 bananas = one pineapple 😊
Good day sir!The pineapple plants are +2yrs & yet the number of leaves are not increasing much,leaves turning yellow/brown. I change the soil,add fertilizer and water them only when they are dry-depending on the weather. Plz.help!Thanks
Which month do pineapples Start flowering from the planting date
what time of the year should i do this method. I live in south Florida.
Spring through summer will be the best period.
I lived on the Big Island in Kona for 15 years. There you just put em in the cracks of the lava rock and we produced 10 lb white pineapples. Now I live in so. west Florida. 3 years and my pineapples haven't flowered. Will try your method using banana water. Hope it works!
Can you just use the banana skin? I've used banana skin to ripen fruit, and to create fertiliser.
It should be possible but you likely have to use more skins. The fruit produces more ethylene than the peel.
@@dr_obisgarden Wonderful, thank you for explaining.
THAN YOU DR. OBi DO YOU LIVE N SOUTHERN CALIF
No. I'm currently in Ghana.
what size pots do you grow the pineapples in?
I use 10-15 litre pots
cool thank you
You're welcome
How long do you grow the plant before inducing flowering?
I mostly induce between 8-10 months. I live in warm climate and my plants grow really fast. A good indicator to know when to induce is using the number of leaves. If the plant has at least 30 long leaves, then they can be induced to flower successfully.
How many days does ga from the banana take to be ready
I normally leave it overnight and the next morning or prepare in the morning and use it in the evening.
Dr, pls what is the best fertilizer for big and sweet pineapple. Thanks.
Did you say this water can be used for other plants as well
It can be used as a fertilizer for other plants but to be more effective you have to use the whole chopped up banana peel without the fruit.
Can a ripened banana that was frozen be used
Once it's frozen, all the cells will die and lose the ability to produce ethylene such a banana will not work and thus should not be used.
@@dr_obisgardenthank you for your reply! I was being lazy but went out and bought fresh bananas to try this
Lovely
Thanks.
@@dr_obisgarden 👍
What pot size are you using to grow pineapples. I want to try growing it on my terrace in subtropical area
I'm using a 10 L bucket which is about 12 in (30 cm) high with diameter of 12 in.
Why can use a glass jar ?
How do use know when the solution is ready ?
How many times can the banana be reused?
How often should I water my pineapple plants,and what is the Best season of planting pineapples
I wish I knew this 2 years ago.
Better late never 😄
Next time you have a pineapple, use this method.
How do you use calcium carbide to force a pineapple plants to flower...
There're a number of ways. Check out this video for more. ruclips.net/video/LApubDBBbqg/видео.html
GOD is good
Forcing nature breed
YEAHHHHHHH
Im not waiting a Single year for one
Im impatient whit nature Even tough i love it
Do you only pour the banana water onto the pineapple once, or every day for several weeks?
I do it 3 times only
three times in a space of how many dats? is it three times in one week or in one month@@dr_obisgarden
Can the water be used if it is kept longer than 24 hours
The ethylene gas can escape if the water is kept for too long
Thank you for the information. My question is about the pups(baby pineapple plants on the bottom of pineapple) should the pups be removed for a bigger pineapple?
Thanks
❤❤❤
👍
How many times a week should put the banana water.you did not mention why.Why such important message not given
I said you give it continuously for 3 days. You don't have to apply it weekly.

And when you are done, you can use the very ripe bananas for banana bread! lol
Great idea. Thanks for sharing.
How can I do this with ten thousand pineapples
This is for home gardens. For commercial production go for Etephon.
Are you actually a doctor? I'm asking because you put the Teflon tape on backwards.
Looks like he did it right to me
