Selecting the Pineapple:
- Choose a fresh pineapple with firm, green leaves.
- Twist off the crown, keeping it intact.
Preparing the Crown:
- Remove bottom leaves, exposing the stem.
- Trim the stem to encourage root growth.
Growing the Pineapple in Water:
- Place the crown in a glass of water, ensuring the stem is submerged but leaves are not.
- Put it in a sunny spot and change the water every 2-3 days.
Root Growth:
After 2-3 weeks, roots will start to grow from the stem.
Transplanting the Pineapple:
- Use a 12-inch pot with drainage holes and well-draining soil.
- Plant the pineapple, burying the roots and stem.
- Water thoroughly and place in a sunny spot.
Growing pineapple in water at home is easy and enjoyable. With patience and care, you’ll soon have your own pineapple plant!
