I was watching a gardening show on DIY yesterday and they had a segment

about planting a Pineapple. In the segment, the host takes a pineapple
,
twists the top off, and puts it in water to let it grow roots.


Has anyone tried this and been successful? If so, did you use a pineap
ple
from the supermarket or...?

James:

I have a friend who does grow pineapples in his back yard. He first
started his small crop from pineapples he purchased at the local
grocer. (As an experiment to see if he could do it) He cut the tops
off, allowed them to root in water, and then trasplanted them into 50
gallon buckets he obtained from a local nursery. (One to each bucket)
The last I counted he had about 10 or 15 of them growing. Hope you try
growing them! Good luck!
