Happy Hydroponicing!
Hoocho another tip.
You can also cut the crown into quarters and grow 4 plants from the one crown 🍍 🍺🍺
Hows this system going?
I always get excited for another Hoocho video, and we’re doing hydro pineapple?!? You crazy son of a gun, I’m in! 👀
Damnit, and i was just about to go to sleep! Thank hoocho for the great video as always! Cheers from Florida!
Putting this on my list of systems to make as soon as I get my space (1 more year!) But also, a hint: You don't even need a knife to get the tops off. Just (carefully) grab the leaves & twist. It comes right off without leaving a cut edge on the pineapple. The remaining pineapple won't last as long as it would have with the leaves left on, but it lasts longer than a cut one, so you don't have to eat it immediately. I've also had good results skipping the 'drying-out' stage, but I'm also not in a tropical area, so pineapple diseases aren't common and I don't likely need the extra protection the drying provides. And I've also tried slicing the tops vertically into quarters (making sure there's root zone on all 4) and yes, it DOES make 4 pineapple plants. A bit slower starting - but they take 2 years to fruit anyway, so the difference is negligible.
He mentions in the video you don't have to cut the top off and can just pull the head away, but also mentions it shortens the stem length a bit
HE'S BACK!! BIG DOG!! HE'S RETURNED!! LET'S GOOOOOO. THE BIG DOG loves a bit of pineapple, so do the ladies.
🐕🍍💃
Hahaha! This is my inner monologue every time I see a new Hoocho video pop up! Let’s goooo! 😂❤
Looking forward to seeing the outcome.
Thanks always H!
I'm sure someone could start a company, making and installing hydroponic systems, from your videos alone.
Just a little suggestion (You are probably well aware of this), you can also cut the stalk and top and divide into quarters giving you 4 plants from a single pineapple
I can't wait to see what these look like in 2 months. LFG!!!!!
nice invesment you have there mr hoocho . congrats
Hell yeah brother! Awesome content!
This is exciting, I can’t wait to try this! Thank you!
Omg so many crops to grow !
It would be so great to have a website or a maxi recap video of how you would grow one plant or another in which system !
That one pineapple crom could be cut in 4 . After you may get 4 instead of 1.
Nice one, learned a lot, thanks Hoocho. My missus is gona love me 😳😂
Awesome 👍 any ideas for a non 3d printed wicking spike system?
Don't worry, just joined your patreon! Hopefully be able to find somewhere in the UK that can print them at a reasonable price.
Talk on nutrient system & formulae using bro. Make series on Hydroponics Nutrients 101 & formulating own solution.
After letting the crowns cure for a week, it seems to be possible to cut them into four parts, quadrupeling the number of plants from one crown. When doing so, take out the innermost part of the crown. This is said to be stimulating root growth.
Woohoo!!! New video!! Leggoooo!!
Your videos are so good
Damn thank alot
Amazing!
What size 3D printer would you recommend for making the parts that you do ? As we are looking to get back into it again when we buy our new place.
Great idea!!! Just I am curious lvls of ph and tds can you share that information thanks
Awesome!
Interesting.
Could this method work with potatoes?
Love your videos, what is the adapter you use on your water container for the hose attachments?
My onion starts keep dying. I am waiting for them to poke their first root then putting them about 2 inches above the water line in my ebb/flow hydroton system. They just rot.
Question: How can I buy some grow spikes in Canada? (I don’t have access to a 3D printer. )
zone 10 been trying for years to get a pineapple to grow takes foreever to root roots are always tiny ,all the leaves dry up before it roots ,roots are really tiny compared to roots i see online which are thick and robust I guess theyre just poisoning the hell outta everything over here water soil food supply etc.
Can you kratky method a pineapple?
40% scoria? whats that?
Don’t pineapples not like a lot of watering, pretty sure an aeroponic system would work better for the one’s directly planted in the nutrients channel 🧐
I was thinking the same thing, they DO NOT like being wet at all.
In Florida we plant them in areas as a xeriscape plant out of irrigation in full sun.
Only the rain waters them.
Are you pretty sure about that
Well... I think the proof is in the pudding here.. His results are pretty darn good.
@@jeffrichards2011 He’s really doing experimentation in the area of hydroponics. He innovations systems and lets all of us know what works and what didn’t. I just wanted to let him know the results of my own personal experience so he can have that information since he’s always sharing with us. Anyway he just planted the pineapples we’ll have to wait and see if they thrive. 🤷🏾♀️
@@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558 my mom overwatered mine while I was traveling. Poor thing never stood a chance 😭
You in Australia? I'm in hervey Bay iv been trying your methods very nice.
I was told pineapple pups were quicker to get fruit.
I have had no problems rooting pineapples straight into a glass of water.
Have you done a video about how you configure the nutrients for your water? I am interested in making a compost tea and using that but I don't know what proportion of it to put in the rain barrel with the water.
I love your vids, but please stop cutting the top of your pineapples. Simply twist off the top, remove bottom leaves until you see dark spots on the stem, dry in shade for 5~7 days (in warmer climates) then plant. Using this method I have had a plant surviving in nothing but rain water for 6 years. No fruit, but a healthy plant. These are tough plants
Another cool as system?
I've just had my seeds sprout in my first cotton wool leafy green propagation experiment.
Keep 'em coming... I love new projects.
And, thank you, as always
Dole pineapple plantation would be as impressed as we all are Hoocho!
I whack my pineapple tops straight in my NFT and boom out come the roots.
Dole Pineapple Plantation would be looking for ways to shut him down, as he is potentially cutting in to their long term sales, as people like your or I, can now grow them at home for pennies.
Pretty interesting idea. I dont live in a climate where it's feasible for me to try something like that. But I do have some ideas for hydro pineapple. I grow a couple now just in soil in the house (for Winter). It's fun messing with them more than anything and it freaks people out that I grow them where it gets cold, so that's always fun.
love your videos as always your looking for new things to grow and your dragon fruit they are looking amazing
How long does this take??
Planted one year ago...how are they doing now?
Hi Hoocho, A while back you did a couple videos about the 3D printable Hydro Tower. I printed two of those, but I found that larger plants, like Peppers, are quite cramped on them. Is there any reason, that you are aware of, which would prevent me from growing Pineapples on one of those towers?
Question: how much overflow (if any) happens from the pots and wicking cords? I’m wondering how this could work indoors where a flood or overflow would be a disaster. Thanks Leanne 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
Don't hold your breath for a response
It only overflows if it wicks out with roots that grow between the bucket and the channel
@@Hoocho thanks for the response I’m thinking the best way to prevent is to place the entire setup inside an overflow tub. Then if it did overflow it would be contained at least. Definitely something I look forward to trying!! Thanks for this information and your response!! I absolutely LOVE pineapples!! 🥰❤️🙏🏻🇨🇦
@@Philmoon69 well looks like I didn’t have to hold my breath! 🇨🇦🤣🥰❤️
Why not make a grow tower with a giant wick in the center so you don't have to use electricity to pump the liquid and nutrients up the tower.
According to physics
Abstract: Water can rise through a capillary up to a height of 34 feet (10 m) due to barometric pressure. This phenomenon occurs due to intermolecular cohesion, adhesion and surface tension. This characteristic can be suitably employed by using a bunch of capillaries tied together to lift large quantity of water.
Essentially you can combine your rain gutter grow system with a tower system to maximize space and yield
Wow amazing idea 💡 ❤ love it .. maybe I try here in Germany 🇩🇪
how long it takes to bear the fruits?
6 months to grow a pineapple
So great!! Have you got an update on these?
@hoocho please use AUTOMATIC WATER LEVEL CONTROL FLOAT VALVE to upgrade your RGGS
Long term commitment, but worth it. Great video Hoocho!! 👍👍
25+years into hydroponics. and i always learnt some thing new here on hoochos. ive been trying to re grow pineapple tops for years "trying" lol. totally wrong. cant wait till spring/summer here to try it again. doesnt help its not tropical here but im thinking in can pull it off with some lights/tents n such. thank hoochos and all who share
You don't cut the crowns of pineapple off, you simply twist the crown off of the pineapple
This one is great. Good information also, (time wise for doing things). This one is a keeper. Pineapples for a life time of enjoyment.
How about screw removing the pup top of the pineapple rather than cutting. Saves work.
I've been living in a country that produces a lot of pineapple (even the rare and expensive pink pineapple) and I had no idea how to propagate them until now 😅. Thank you for sharing!
most store bought pinneables have their top's removed so they don't regrow.
No need to let the tops "dry out". Just remove the flesh and lower leaves. You can then divided the tops into 1/2 or 1/4 plant and allow to root. You'll get much larger production from a single top, rather than the 1-to-1 method used here.
Aesthetics and tastiness - what more could we ask for. Thanks Hoocho!
I'm so curious about the results now
This seems a lot easier than an NFT system. When would you choose one over the other?
Super Nifty idea.
Keep them coming!
🔥🔥🔥🔥
🍍🍍
This looks great, what's the PH and nutrients level you used for the pineapple?
EC 2.4 Ph between 5.5 & 6.5 I think @Hoocho said
Love the video. I threw out some pineapple tops into my compost, and they never died. I’m gonna try this method of rooting and growing them and see what happens .
Question: How do you afford all the equipment? Everything is so expensive. What do you do for work that allows you the time and money to live this lifestyle?
Who asks a complete stranger this?!
@@juliemcgugan1244 looks like I do.
The pups are actually what's used in large-scale pineapple production because they produce a larger, faster pineapple. The pineapple tops also produce pineapples but sometimes smaller than a pup's and take a bit longer. Lots of good info on the video. Thanks.
