One of the experiments we did this year were trying to plant our own pineapple.. it is quite an interesting experience for us and it is really fun seeing it grows....
It was an easy process to grow an pineapple, anyone can do it at home..
Step 1 - Buy a pineapple,
Step 2 - Remove the crown/head from the pineapple..
Step 3 - Root the crown by placing the crown on a glass/bowl of water.(Change water every 5-7 days)
Step 4 - Plant the crown on the pot.
Try ”Google/YouTube" on pineapple growing, there are many planting tips and information you can find over there, but there are about similar method...
Anyway.. Here are some of the pictures to share...
1st week - Need to keep the soil moist for 1-2 weeks..
After 3 months...
After 3 months - Different view...
We also tried to grow it on a ground beside our compost bin, it grows beautifully with not much maintenance needed...
Our next challenge is to wait for it to start flowering and produce a ripe fruit..... 1-2 years maybe.. hahahaa...
