Did you know that the tall leaf of the store-bought pineapple can be rooted and grown as a houseplant?
To do this, you just have to choose a fresh pineapple at your grocery store, preferably organic, cut off the top of the pineapple and grow roots. Try to choose a pineapple that still has the most attractive foliage or is very diverse, especially if you want to get a beautiful houseplant that is pleasing to the eye, and good foliage can mean that the plant is easier to root and You can enjoy your pineapple plant all year round.
Rooting and growing pineapple chunks is easy to maintain. Once you’ve brought your pineapple home, cut off the top of the fruit about 1.5cm below the leaves. Next, remove some of the bottom leaves. Cut the outside of the top of the pineapple at the bottom of the crown or stem until you see root sprouts. These should look like small brown bumps around the circumference of the stem. Let the pineapple dry for several days to a week before planting. This will help heal the top and prevent problems with rot, mold, and disease.
Although it is possible to root a pineapple in water, you will probably have a better chance of rooting it directly in the soil. Use a mixture of light soil with perlite and sand. Place the top of the pineapple in the soil up to the base of its leaves. Water well and place the plant near bright, indirect light. Keep the plant moist until roots develop.
