To grow pineapple, you need a ripe and healthy fruit that is firm to the touch and has a rich aroma.
The top should be strong and form a rosette of large, dark green leaves.
There should be no midges flying around the fruit if you choose it in a store or at the market.
Let's see how you can root a pineapple.
How to plant a pineapple
The leaves need to be carefully "twisted off" without damaging the plant. You can also simply cut off the top with a minimum amount of pulp.
To help the pineapple take root faster, it is best to soak it in a rooting agent beforehand. After that, you can plant the pineapple in a pot.
For the first time, a container with a height and diameter of 12 cm is suitable. It is important that there are drainage holes at the bottom of the container.
You can put a layer of river sand on the bottom, and pour loose and nutritious soil with an acidity level of 5-6 PH on top.
