Default Overripe pineapples

Well I picked one that was still half green, solved the problem but it
was a bit sour. Guess I have to find the mid point.

I'm picking pineapples for the first time and have had about 6 in two

have always been overripe when I cut them.

Is there any reason for this? Perhaps too much rain recently?

I've just picked on much greener and I'm going to cut it earlier in the
hope that this will give me good pineapple, but it is a bit
disappointing after waiting for nearly 2 years.
