Everyday As Told By Photos - Growing Pineapples


May 13, 2020

As you may have noticed, I love almost all kinds of fruits. I feel sluggish whenever I cannot eat any fruit in a day. Last year, 2019, I received a very healthy looking pineapple. It was very heavy as well. Unfortunately, I believe I botched it up as I cooked it into pineapple rice that turned out as a failure.


However, I did not let it let me feel down. I kept the leafy part and germinated it by soaking the white stem in water. I wasn't able to take a photo last year but it looks like this.


It might take a week or two for roots to finally show up. When the roots look strong, you can already replant the pineapple in soil. It will take two years before it bears another fruit and you can repeat the steps. 

Pineapples are perfect for jams and they also look good as decors.
