PINEAPPLE IN A POT!

in #food9 years ago

Hello Steemians!

I would be sharing with you on how to grow Pineapple in a pot.

Being in a place where natural habitat for plants are improvised,

I need to think of something innovative so that I can grow plants.

I love to plant and grow anything at all.

So, this time I'll be talking about growing pineapple in a pot.

Five years ago, I experimented on growing a Pineapple.

I bought pineapple from the supermarket and decided to plant the crown in a pot.

The pot should be about 24" in diameter, deep and lots of soil.

I used mixed soil. Then planted the crown.

In a month time it already has roots and steady on the ground.

I documented its growth and these are the ones I'm sharing with you.

This is the latest yield I have this year!

It's really sweet and moist and I'm so happy of the outcome.

This Pineapple is 6 months old and for the next 6 months I will be waiting

for its fruit.

This is 9 months old.

I will be waiting for another three months to be able to harvest it.

This now the ready to harvest stage.

I made it ripen first before I harvested it.

This a whole year expectation to be able to achieve this yield.

ARE YOU SERIOUS????

What a marvel of life: Never ceasing to learn!!!! ;+)

Over the years, I have rooted a pineapple, which produces a beautiful ornamental. I never thought of it growing into a pineapple.

Now, granted, a year is a long time to wait for a harvest; but, waste not, want not. This is definitely a great tip to know.

It will be worth my time to do more research on growing a pineapple in a container.

Thanks for sharing!

Peace.

I'm glad you found it helpful. It's true after years of observations!

I love Pineapples that's why, I really made the efforts.

Have a great weekend!

You are welcome and more success to you.

Good for you! Not only are they pretty plants, a home grown pineapple is so much better than one from the supermarket! I'm lucky to live in Panama where they are grown locally and they are so good. I have some growing in my yard too.

Thank you very much @kristc for stopping by and leaving a comment.
Indeed, I'm a nature lover and love to plant anything that grows under the sun.
Well, so lucky for you having such a luxury to have a real space to grow.
