    Here's how I test and it has never failed me:
    -First, I smell the bottom. If it smells like pineapple, we're on the right track.
    -Second, I wiggle a leaf around the middle of the scraggle, and if it comes out easily or feels like a loose wiggly tooth, It's ready to go! I look at color third. I've had luck with anything from half-yellow-half-green to golden colored all over and had good results. But I have also gotten a few over-ripe golden ones. I wouldn't have left that one for a week. Maybe 4 days.

      I read that on an article about smelling the pineapple after I googled "How to tell a good pineapple from a bad one". It stated: If you put a pineapple at your nose and smell its natural scent, then it is good to pick. I tried this golden rule and picked out a nice smelly pinepple and cut it home. To my surprise, the taste was sweet, yet mild and juicy.

    I found that a lot of people don't eat ripe fruit, or know what it's supposed to taste like and they end up not eating it because they say it doesn't taste good. But the reality is that it wasn't eaten at it's sweetness!! You had a perfect example of when I open my pineapples, it's usually that drabby looking pineapple, is the one at its sweetness. I love pineapples and cantaloupes right now. Most fruits in the stores should not be eaten right away, should be placed in a cupboard or on the counter for several days to sometimes a week for its sweetness to come through.

    I grew some and I live in Maryland yes its in a pot and took over 3 years to produce a fruit. I used the biggest pot I could find because they get really huge, and of course I moved it indoors when the temp gets below 55F. They take up a lot of space I had 4 growing at one time but they really spread out so I cut it down to 2, & be careful when you move them around because they stab you , wear safety goggles! they need plentiful sunshine and in the darker months you need to use grow lights

      I live in the UK. I grew a pineapple from a shop bought pineapple crown. It has taken over two years but now has a healthy fruit growing. I can only leave outside June to October but my kitchen is bright as we have two large roof windows. I repotted once as it out grew its first pot. Summer daytime temps here average around 22-24C. To be honest i am amazed it has grown so as it spends 6-7 months a year in the kitchen and we don't get much sunlight from November to March.

I just twisted the top off and going to turn it upside down for more ripeness and sweetness. Thanks.

      @@michaellibera3746 Most fruits (and vegetables with similar properties) ripen after being picked, with some, like avocados, benefiting significantly from this process. I am currently experimenting with two pineapple heads-one with the crown and one without-both turned upside down. After almost a week, both fruits seem to be ripening similarly. The one without the crown shows no signs of rotting and is easier to turn upside down. However, I suggest using a plate or container under the pineapples to catch any potential juice leakage. Although I haven't encountered this issue so far, it's better to be safe than sorry. In about two days, I will conduct a taste test to determine which one is sweeter and not rotten.

    Actually, pineapples hardly ripen at all after being picked, so the state that you buy it in is the state of ripeness that it will pretty much stay. The best way to check if a pineapple is really ripe is to smell the bottom. If it smells sweet it will taste sweet. If it doesn't really smell like anything, then it will taste like one bland pineapple.

  • @Denuhm
    @Denuhm 12 років тому +2

    Broadly speaking, ripening IS part of the rotting process - the fruit breaks down the starch, pectin and other carbohydrates through enzymes and catalysts such as Calcium Carbide... The softness and sweetness are a by product of this. A good example of this is the Banana. A ripe banana is Black and nearly a purée consistency. Humans ripen fruit, because it usually improves the palatability of the fruit. Though with Durians I'm not so sure!

    A pineapple will not ripen any further - get any sweeter - after picking. It is sugar that makes pineapple sweet after ripe. The sugar comes from the conversion of starch reserves in the stump at the time of ripening. Fresh pineapples from Hawaii are picked at maximum ripeness for delivery to U.S. markets.

    More yellow is sweeter and a little softer. Green is less sweet and more firm

    The weight percent of the top crown is negligible in comparison to the weight of the fruit.
    Unless I was buying like 30 pineapples, I'd pay the extra couple cents so I don't look like a jackass.

      Matt Slupsky Pineapples are normally sold by the "each" not by weight.

    It is not kosher to twist off the top for by the pound. The price is considered for the crown. If they sold them without the crown the price would be higher. The cashier would also probably loose his or her job if they sold it without the crown. Besides you can plant the crown to grow your own pineapple plant just remove the lower leaves about an inch to expose the roots from the crown.

      not fighting but what about corn? ive seen corn by the pound and people shuck them in the store

      Mantha1006 I'm curious about corn as well. My store provides a trash can for people to shuck them, so why would pineapple be any different?

    • @sandrachase68

      the price per pound is lower if they sell whole with the crown. If they started removing the crown and selling that way the price would go up.

    i have a pineapple that is ripe on one side and green on the other. is it ripe enough to cut still or should i let it sit?

    I would like to offer a different perspective instead of ripping off the head. I understand what you’re saying about right thing but I think patience is much more productive although I’m not disrespecting the suggestion at all. From a permaculture gardening perspective, if you cut just an inch below the crown you can regrow more pineapple. There are tons of different grocery store produce items that can be easily grown at home
