How to Propagate Pineapple

How to Propagate Pineapple

1. Cut off the crown bud

Pineapple reproduction mainly relies on the crown bud part, and no special preparation is required. You only need to process the pineapple you buy to eat, cut off the crown bud on it, and cut from the junction with the flesh. No flesh should be left on the upper part to prevent the influence of rot later. The leaves on the top should remain green and upright, peel off the old leaves on the outside, exposing the white parts, and place them in a well-ventilated place to dry.

2. Hydroponic rooting

Prepare a suitable container that can accommodate the crown buds. You can also use a double-layer structure, which will have better results. The water quality is not very special, just use tap water that has been dried in the sun. Place the crown bud on top, in a sunny location, to encourage small roots to grow underneath.

3. Rooting and Transplanting

When the plant just grows small roots, don't rush to transplant it. Wait until the roots underneath grow stably before transplanting. The flowerpot you prepare at the beginning does not need to be too big, otherwise it will not be good for growth. Fill it with breathable soil and bury the plant in it.

4. Maintenance and management

After putting it into the pot, place it in a sunny place where it can be fully exposed to sunlight. Also pay attention to proper watering and keep it slightly moist.
