@babygirl420 How precious! I saw some the other day for sale in the garden center of my local grocery store. Never attempted to grow one. Keep us posted!
How often do you water your pineapple plant? I'm worried about overwatering.
@USAGardenHub I have a wooden cop stick I stick into the soil about half way down my pot if it comes out dry with no soil on it I water if it's a bit moist with soil on it I wait a few more days and check again till it's dry completely then I give it a very good even drench with food in the water almost every time

I have mine outdoors, in zoned 8b. It gets full, direct sun 14-16 hours a day and produces 2 pineapples a year. I water it daily but again, it’s outdoors in 90+ degree weather! I started it by cutting the top off a pineapple 😊
I have had one growing for a year and a half now. What I do know is they love it humid. The biggest struggle has been maintaining the right temp for it…I live in Tennessee. I water it very cautiously by sticking finger as far down in it to feel for moisture. I’m far from fruit bearing , but so far so good. I’ve definitely had to baby it🩡let me know ur progress
I’ll send a picture of Princess laterπŸͺ΄
I have one got it straight from the pineapple itself. I was finely able to plant it last week. Had to wait for the roots to get about 3 inches long before planting
