RE: How to grow a pineapple from kitchen scraps

in #food8 years ago

Oh my Gooooodness! Is it for real? I am surely going to grow this in my garden !!!! You got me sooo excited! Do you think it is fine if I grow it at house too? We are entering winter season and the temperature is always below zero and it will take around 6 months to the temperatute to be 18C for nights. Thank you so much!! I am so happy I am following you :)

Yep just keep them in a pot and move them indoors during winter. They don't have long roots, so they don't need big pots. Have fun growing your own. Nothing beats fresh, organic, homegrown foods!

I have several and I think the only thing I do different is that I use big pots. The larger the pot, the more suckers you get after the pineapple fruits and dies. They mainly like warm weather, but I did not bring mine in when we dipped into the 40's in Northern Florida and they did fine. Mine are harder to move as I keep them in pots and they get over 4 feet across sometimes.

Thanks for the tips @floridagypsy!
