  • I can't believe I harvested my very own organic homegrown Pineapple! This has been one of the most fun experiments and definitely one of the LONGEST too. If you like pineapple, I strongly encourage you to give it a try. All it takes is a pineapple top to get started and a bit of patience! This would be a fun experiment and lesson for kids too because the end result is a yummy pineapple. I've spent the last couple years learning how to grow pineapple in containers, harvest pineapple and propagate them from tops, slips, and pups. I can't wait to see what I get next year! Thank you so much for spending some time with me and sharing in the joy of my harvest!

    If you leave the slips on the mother plant once you harvest the pineapple you'll have new pineapples growing in 8 months and you don't have to wait for new roots to develope. They develope a lot faster and grow bigger. I harvested 7 pineapple last summer, this summer I have 12 pineapples I'll be harvesting and a total of 21 plants. I'm in zone 9b SW Florida I have been growing pineapples since 2020.

      Wow, that's a lot of pineapple plants! I bet they love the climate in Florida too. I'm looking forward to getting more although I think I may have neglected the slips a little too much over the winter because I haven't seen any flowers growing this year. I still have 2 slips on the mother plant and 4 in other pots. I doubt I'll ever get to 21 plants, but I'd love to get 2 or 3 a year if I can!

    just stumbled upon this video today, but I've recently rooted a top off a pineapple and decided to stick it in some dirt and let'er grow! It's already putting out new growth and I'm oddly excited even though I fully expect to either get nothing or take ~3 years (I live in zone 7a). Finding shoots/slips online isn't easy so I figured why not go this route. In any case, thanks for the video!

    If you keep the original pineapple plant after harvesting the pineapple, the sucker/pup will grow as a new plant and will produce another pineapple within a year. Many assume that pineapple plants flower once. It is actually not true. One of the ways that farmers make good profit is not planting new pineapple plants every year. However, the fruits that the plant will produce in the second/third/fourth year will become gradually smaller than the first one.

    • @herhomeandharvest
      @herhomeandharvest  Рік тому

      Thanks for sharing! I was thinking of leaving a couple of the pups on the original plant to see the difference between that and the ones I repotted. I was wondering how they can sell them so cheap at the grocery store!
