Answer 2

TEMPERATURE: In order to flower and fruit, this plant requires warm temperatures above 75° and average warmth (minimum 50°) for plants in flower.

LIGHT: This plant will thrive in full sun so provide the brightest location possible.

WATER: Avoid overwatering these plants. Water when the soil feels somewhat dry to the touch. Mist leaves in the summer, occasionally using liquid plant food at recommended dilution.

Pineapple is a specialty plant and is available on a very limited basis. It is usually grown in 6" or 7" pots.

Answer 3

Having ever grown 1 pineapple, I would suggest planting one in organic rich soil in the full sun. Mine did fruit, but because I didn't plant it as above, the fruit was a bit puny. I grew it after purchasing a pineapple from the grocery store - you know - after you slice the top off - but I planted it in a small pot first until it produced enough roots to support it in the ground.

Answer 4

i have heard that if you put an apple near it the gas released from the apple will force it to bloom... of course the temps, age, etc. need to be right...
