The only known method to grow a pineapple for me is cutting its top and stick it in the soil, but how did the first pineapple come about ? mind boggling. I simply cut off the top and pot each one separately until more than half of the top bit in covered in soil and water it daily left under the sun. This is simply a waiting game until your next harvest, estimated time around 1 year, plus minus.
A healthy pineapple will form strong roots, you can lift it up if potted without breaking and its leaves will thicken and simply grow into a big bushy plant. Keep adding compost or fertiliser if you must and one fine day, a beautiful flower will form in the middle of the plant. Mine took 8 months to form the first flower and 4 months to complete the fruit.
The bottom of the pineapple will turn from green to yellow and its time to harvest.
