Growing Pineapple In Containers | Zone 9 | Harvesting My First Pineapple

- I can't believe I harvested my very own organic homegrown Pineapple! This has been one of the most fun experiments and definitely one of the LONGEST too. If you like pineapple, I strongly encourage you to give it a try. All it takes is a pineapple top to get started and a bit of patience! This would be a fun experiment and lesson for kids too because the end result is a yummy pineapple. I've spent the last couple years learning how to grow pineapple in containers, harvest pineapple and propagate them from tops, slips, and pups. I can't wait to see what I get next year! Thank you so much for spending some time with me and sharing in the joy of my harvest!

If you leave the slips on the mother plant once you harvest the pineapple you'll have new pineapples growing in 8 months and you don't have to wait for new roots to develope. They develope a lot faster and grow bigger. I harvested 7 pineapple last summer, this summer I have 12 pineapples I'll be harvesting and a total of 21 plants. I'm in zone 9b SW Florida I have been growing pineapples since 2020.
Wow, that's a lot of pineapple plants! I bet they love the climate in Florida too. I'm looking forward to getting more although I think I may have neglected the slips a little too much over the winter because I haven't seen any flowers growing this year. I still have 2 slips on the mother plant and 4 in other pots. I doubt I'll ever get to 21 plants, but I'd love to get 2 or 3 a year if I can!
Why are they so small
@@johndo8019 the ones you see in stores have been issued industrial strength fertilizers that are not accessible to most people.
It's really worth the wait isn't it 😋nothing more sweeter than Homegrown 🍍🍍🍍🤤🤤🤤
It was delicious! It helps that my family all love pineapple 🍍😋
@@herhomeandharvest awesome 👌 🤗🍍😍😍😍
❤❤❤
just stumbled upon this video today, but I've recently rooted a top off a pineapple and decided to stick it in some dirt and let'er grow! It's already putting out new growth and I'm oddly excited even though I fully expect to either get nothing or take ~3 years (I live in zone 7a). Finding shoots/slips online isn't easy so I figured why not go this route. In any case, thanks for the video!
Good luck! I was pretty excited that it worked. Having patience for it was tough though!
That looks delish!! With all those pups, hopefully you’ll have an amazing harvest next year!
I hope so!!! I just found another pup too 😁
Man now I feel like eating pineapple too !
Congrats!
Thanks! 😁
Looks delish. I'm growing some pineapples as we speak.
Awesome! I hope you enjoy them! It was seriously so good 😊
Can you grow them anywhere?@@herhomeandharvest
If you keep the original pineapple plant after harvesting the pineapple, the sucker/pup will grow as a new plant and will produce another pineapple within a year. Many assume that pineapple plants flower once. It is actually not true. One of the ways that farmers make good profit is not planting new pineapple plants every year. However, the fruits that the plant will produce in the second/third/fourth year will become gradually smaller than the first one.
Thanks for sharing! I was thinking of leaving a couple of the pups on the original plant to see the difference between that and the ones I repotted. I was wondering how they can sell them so cheap at the grocery store!
Useful video 😍😍😍
Thank you 😊
Subscribed to your channel 👍
@@jenugooducoorg-2945 Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy watching. 😃
I’m in zone 9b (Monterey bay) & I’m hoping to try this but I’m not sure if pineapple will grow in my zone. Where are you located? Thanks!
I’m also in zone 9b but in Southern California. I honestly would bet they will grow better where you’re at because it’s more humid there!
What size pot did you put it in?
This is about a 10 gallon pot. I am growing two of the slips (offshoots from the mother plant) in a pot twice this size and they’re doing great too.
@@herhomeandharvest awesome and thanks for letting me know! I was debating if 3 gallons wouldve been enough (just trying to conserve space) after I planted mine in a 7 gallon today. Looks like I’ll stick to the 7 gallon. Pretty cool seeing these progress!
@@CalenMac I think you would struggle with the 3 gallons but I don’t see why a 7 gallon wouldn’t work. Best of luck and I hope you have success! It’s definitely exciting when you get to harvest!
What size was your pot, once you harvest your pineapple?
The pot you see in this video is a 10 gallon. It did well enough in here but I think a little more space would have been ideal.
@@herhomeandharvest thank you for your prompt reply.
just saw someone else say in a video where they visited a pineapple plantation that they do take 2 years to grow!
Isn’t it crazy how they can go on sale for $2.50 each when they take that long to grow!?
@@herhomeandharvest that's the normal price here, 2/3€ each, 4/5€ for the imported ones... farmers get paid very little...
@@xTrengo So true!! And they literally sustain us!
After watching the video, I was excited about the idea. How if I was trying to plant pineapples at my house, I found the idea brilliant. I live in Algeria in africa and I wanted to try the experience. I will appreciate it sir if you could help me get some seeds to try at hom
🌷🤝🌺🌺💐🥀🌹🙋 good jee video hallo jee you
Can u give me a sapling?
I’m not able to do that right now but if you’re on Facebook there are a lot of gardening groups that do swaps for fruit/veggies/starts/etc. If you can find one in your area it’s a great place to get things like this for free or trade.
@@herhomeandharvest can u give such facebook group names
I don't see a ring on your finger are you single
Happily married for 10 years now 😊. I just don’t always wear my ring when I’m working in the garden.
@Her Home And Harvest I thought your supposed to wear your wedding ring 24 7
José wanted him a pineapple mama😂
Why are they so small
