There are seeds. I did not know that. I have just purchased a new pineapple and will attempt to find the seeds. I have taken a great interest in propagating plants. There are many ways to go about this and I plan on working them all.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3391084916332516615-1127962710265830764?l=growpineapples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor David Hornerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03173590111255208469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3391084916332516615.post-58638463764151762132008-11-14T20:19:00.000-08:002008-11-14T20:22:25.706-08:00I have planted several pineapple top in the past 6 weeks, none of them are doing very well. I was having so much good luck with all the others. It might have something to do with the weather. I will post pictures of the ones that are doing well in my next post.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3391084916332516615-5863846376415176213?l=growpineapples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor David Hornerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03173590111255208469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3391084916332516615.post-48871889327550727212008-09-21T20:09:00.000-07:002008-09-21T20:12:52.574-07:00Today I took a look at my pineapple tops. They were all growing very well. My wife and I had a discussion as to what to do with them now that they are getting too big for the pots they are in. By the way, I have been planting new tops at the rate of one every other week. We eat a lot of pineapple.<br /><br />We decided to plant them all together in a portion of our yard and name t the "pineapple plantation".<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3391084916332516615-4887188932755072721?l=growpineapples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor David Hornerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03173590111255208469noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3391084916332516615.post-83994818121797026562008-08-03T20:36:00.000-07:002008-12-04T08:02:28.553-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z871wQXHQoc/STf_BSIN6II/AAAAAAAAAIY/um1b2QpBejU/s1600-h/pineapple.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 73px; height: 135px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_z871wQXHQoc/STf_BSIN6II/AAAAAAAAAIY/um1b2QpBejU/s320/pineapple.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275965885999081602" /></a><br />My wife purchased a pineapple in the store some time ago, I wanted to see what would happen if I took the leafy top of the fruit and planted it in the garden.<br /><br />I placed it in a tub that I was growing Swiss chard in. To my delight, is started to grow. I have since placed three more tops in the same tub. I am going to transplant them into small pots in a few weeks.<br /><br />I have since read of several ways to grow pineapples, this will be a great adventure.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3391084916332516615-8399481812179702656?l=growpineapples.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Pastor David Hornerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03173590111255208469noreply@blogger.com0
