Saying this has anything to do with food just because it's a pineapple would be a huge stretch. I learned something today that's kind of cool to me, so I thought I'd share with everyone. Apparently you can take a pineapple, slice off the top bit, proceed to eat and enjoy the fruit (see? there's eating involved), take said top bit and stuff it into a pot of dirt. Give it some time and bam! Suddenly you have a brand new pineapple plant, which in turn produces another mini-pineapple. The circle of life is awesome. Have a great Monday.
Damn, I need a tag called 'Things Columbia Didn't Teach Me.'
Does this work for all types of pineapples?!?! Do they actually grow in our non-tropical climate?? Wow, I have to try this now.
ReplyDeleteI think it'd work with any pineapple (I'm purely guessing here). I'd guess it's definitely hot enough in the US to do it since it's summer now.
ReplyDeletewhat!!! AMAZING :O best thing I've learned so far this summer haha
ReplyDeleteThis does work but I just cut the pineapple head off and it works the same. My roots are huge and am transferring into a pot today! Make sure to give it a lot of sunlight and a pretty large pot like artificial potted plants. Also, you should do direct sunlight. It really speeds up the growth.
