This method is so cool! We’ve always grown them by putting them in water until roots form. This method is a lot easier and you get more! Thanks for sharing!
I am trying to grow pineapple. Hasn’t been to well for me so far. The tops keep rotting. I take off as much fruit left on the top as possible, have it sitting in fresh distilled water and also tried in soil. The leafs just crinkle and die off 😢 or seems like it’s dying, I do notice slight root growth but it does not look good by any means
Just stick it in the ground , no need to bother with water etc I tried both ways but this is the easiest and fastest way I think . Just remember to water it and have a very well drained soil …good luck.
@@PlantsAmore sorry, you didn't say that but I've heard other youtubers say the best propagation material are the biggest crowns so I've been watching a lot of videos trying to figure out why.
There is several other methods to propagate pineapple 🍍, I tried these and it works well for me so I thought I will share my experience! Good luck with your pineapple 🍍 growing everybody!
I’m so sorry I almost missed this video. I’m thrilled to learn this method. I eat a lot of pineapple. And grow it to. I love that I can get 4 now instead of 1. I will have to try this ASAP. I want to have a full pineapple bed. Thank you for the tip.
I apologize, just not seeing the comment, I didn’t measure the time , but I think it’s about similar maybe 🤔 a bit delay … next time around have to remember to write down the dates and places I plant them … I planted many all around so it’s hard to remember which one was which.
Hi David, if there is no rain 🌧 and dry conditions I like to water my plants 🌱 at least every two days or when the soil is dry… but ideally every day before sunrise or after sunset. Summer time when there is a lot of rain 🌧 nearly every day I don’t have to do a thing but weed around them . They love well draining soil and good waterings specially when it comes to fast draining sandy soils . When I start the pineapple 🍍crowns I keep them moist in well draining soil till they grow roots , then I can lay off a bit till their soil is dry and then water again. Good luck growing your 🍍 pineapples 🍍!:)
I am at Fl and I like to plant most things when it’s the rainy season , also usually prefer to plant it directly to the ground, so the water drains well and I don’t have to plant them several times . Water clog can cause rot or if the tag went through the core also causing them to rot … I don’t always use the four pieces method because sometimes I just want to plant it quickly so I plant the whole crown … but whenever I used the quartering method it was working … one time because of my own fault it dried out so much that I lost some, that was when I planted it to the pot … ( another reason why I don’t like to plant into the pot when it’s not a must, because it dries out very quick in the Fl sun) The other thing is to consider , how old was the pineapple 🍍crown by the time it get to the ground … the more I wait to plant them and they have to wait in the house without food and sun the less chance of survival .
I hope you will consider to give it another try :). Maybe the crown wasn’t very viable in your previous time. Either way … let me know if you do I hope at this time you will have a positive outcome.
It increases the risk of disease and failure of the plant. Whatever amount of diseased tissue it develops (and will will develop some areas of rot), will impact grow time but not a ton. The reason we don't do this in the field (we farm pineapples on Maui), is the risk of total failure from disease. Yes, they do need lots of sun. No, they do not like the cold at all. Yes, you can pull off growing one inside with the right placement (or maybe grow lights), but it will be slow and sugar content will be lower.....about like a grocery store pineapple, which are not as sweet as a Maui Gold or any locally sold varieties. Dole harvests before full ripeness to lengthen shelf life, but since they don't continue to ripening after removal from the stalk, they don't get sweeter even if you do see the color change from green to yellow. Ideal color would be 76-80% of the eyes being yellow, and look for hints of red specks here and there. Don't let it get too red or if all start tasting like alcohol. But yellow is the color you are looking for when growing your own, NOT green.
I've heard from "Dr. Obi's garden" that quartering will actually get you a fruit faster. His explanation is that the top is one type of growth, and when you quarter the plant, it causes it to put out a ratoon from the side, which will start off smaller, but will out pace a top grown on its own. Fertilize lightly every week, and your results will be very good.
Hi, it’s the best for Zone 10 & 11 but it can also grow slightly lower zones with some extra protection since under 28Fahrenheit can kill them . I would plant it in a pot and would overwinter it in the house or greenhouse & can go outside when temperatures are higher than 60Fahrenheit , lower than that it will delay their development. So winter inside & summer outside the way , unless there is a greenhouse . Also if you have gold fish 🐟, their aquarium water is amazing to fertilize them. With that said I haven’t tried to grow them at Zone 4, so I don’t know 🤷🏻♀️ how it will work out , but why not experiment and see. :) Let me know how it goes. ( P.S.The winter time might be rough to keep them alive inside… they love hot, humid and full sun ☀️ locations)
@@PlantsAmore great, I have been going to place that sells fruit baskets for gifts and I heard Publix will give you the tops since they sell fresh fruit cut up.
I think you would have to grow it in a pot and during cold weather take it in the house . Freezing temps can damage or kill the plant so needs protection .
Hi there:), thanks so much . I used to water them with gold fish aquarium water , it worked amazing , grew the sweetest most delicious pineapples . Soil has to be well draining.
Very interesting, i just started in pineapple planting no success yet , but watching you with spliting the pineapple crown like that gives me more power to carry on . THANKS A LOT.
Thank you for watching , I saw a video on the second method a little while back , and I had to see if it’s actually working or not. Have a nice rest of the day!
Hi, my husband bought the pink pineapple 🍍and I found the seeds in them, I think he got it from Del Monte. Good luck 🍀, unfortunately mine didn’t survived the winter … don’t have a green house …
I know what you mean … sometimes people would say and do anything for the views so I can understand you were skeptical as I was too but it works very well!
Hiii ! Amazing content ! Thx do you have any idea how to not have brown spots on the leaves ? I got some but don't know what to do Very informative second technique didn't know this one
Hi Nancy, it’s florida sandy soil mixed with some rich organic matter, broken down mulch . You can always use some compost or high quality garden soil and mix it up a bit . I used to have gold fish and each time I had to clean the aquarium I used their water to water my pineapples and they grew the sweetest pineapple 🍍I have ever had . They aren’t to picky , just make sure it’s well draining soil …
Hi 🙋♀️was the crown healthy looking and fresh when you planted it? I watered mine almost every day when there was no rain. When cut in so many ways needs to be hydrated more often .
@@iccuR give another try and let me know how it goes :), I normally watered them before the sun ☀️ comes up or after sunset, during the day it kinda dried out a bit (but here in SW Fl when there is no rain 🌧 everyday, the soil/sand dries out quickly.
Thanks Abi, when I first saw the second method I had to try and see if it works for myself , and after I realized wasn’t just bs, figured I share my experience what happened . You can even cut it to more pieces I believe. Have a relaxing Sunday!
That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw the photo, too good to be true, can I really get even more plants out of one top?!. Really cool to see it actually growing so well. The more pineapples the better! 💚🍍
@@alicia8386 ha ha exactly!;) We have to try and see , next Costco Pineapple 🍍 will be the test for separating it even more (maybe six or eight ? ) We don’t know till we try!

Oo
Wow!i thought i just plant it the whole crown..not cutting it..very nice sharing sis Eri..thank you!
Thank you sis , yes you can do it that way as well or if you want to grow four from one crown this is another way to propagate.
Nice Eri, I knew they could be split in 4 to sprout but never tried myself
Glad to see your results
Yes , I saw it done as well but I was skeptical if its really working till I experienced it really works great!

I hate when the tags are too deep and I have to cut out the rot.
You and me both … but glad we can get around that … enjoy your pineapple 🍍growing !:)
I wonder if you can subdivide it further? 6, 8. As long as there is some root structure, I bet it would work.
Hey Charles , yes but when I tried 8 wasn’t all of them successful…when I do four it works very well and normally all of them takes…
@@PlantsAmore I have tried an 8 way split as learned from another You tuber. so far 6 weeks later they still are alive and holding their own.
@@michaeljmelanson7926 that’s great 😃, for me didn’t work as well, I lost more than I gained but maybe 🤔 just a fluke? Will give another try!
Does the size of the crown matter, and why???? If I have small crowns will I get small pineapples?
Hi , no it shouldn’t affect it , did I said anything that indicated that? If I did it must be a misunderstanding…

So u just cut then direct sow them into the ground don’t have to wait for roots?
Correct, they will root in the soil…
learnt something new today, will definitely try this, this is amazing sis
Awesome , its a fun project!:)
Multiply means more than one, you only made one ?
From one crown divided , made 4 pineapple 🍍 plants.
How often do you water your pinapple plants?
Thank you

Did you cure the crown before planting or no?
I haven’t. Took off all the meaty part that’s prone to mold and planted it directly in the soil .

Thank you very much, I appreciate it!
Thanks
My pleasure , enjoy the growing process.
Thanks heaps for the demo.. you showed how to perfectly!
Thanks so much!
I've tried the first method and works very well. I'll try the second method and thanks Eri👍😊
Hi Sandor, thanks for watching , yes its fun to grow them!
Can you let it root priot to cutting it in quarters?
Hi Leah , I never tried it that way … I like to save a step by directly planting it in the ground.
I could show you how mine rotted so fast it was stunning. 3 days - over. Cut into 4 section it rots beyond quickly. I assure you too.
What growing zone are you at and when did you plant it?
I am at Fl and I like to plant most things when it’s the rainy season , also usually prefer to plant it directly to the ground, so the water drains well and I don’t have to plant them several times .

I hope you will consider to give it another try :). Maybe the crown wasn’t very viable in your previous time. Either way … let me know if you do I hope at this time you will have a positive outcome.
Hi Eri, I never knew this my friend. I will definitely try this..
Hi Nadi , yes it works well!
Very informative for me,I've rather do itmyself,to find out it really worth it doing and many thanks for this simple method.
Thank you for the video :) Just found your channel and subscribed :) Cheers from Australia!
Hi there, appreciated!:)

Does anyone know if quartering like she did in the second method will effect how long it takes to fruit? I would imagine it does.
It increases the risk of disease and failure of the plant. Whatever amount of diseased tissue it develops (and will will develop some areas of rot), will impact grow time but not a ton. The reason we don't do this in the field (we farm pineapples on Maui), is the risk of total failure from disease. Yes, they do need lots of sun. No, they do not like the cold at all.
