You can grow a pineapple yourself, either outdoors or indoors.

How to Plant a Pineapple

Grow a pineapple in a sunny spot indoors or in a container in the garden.

In winter, the plant should be brought indoors to protect it from the cold.

Plant the tree in well-drained, loamy and sandy soil with a pH of 4.5 to 6.5.

A mixture of cactus and citrus soil works well for growing.

How to Care for a Pineapple

It is important to feed the plant once a month.

To do this, use a balanced 10-10-10 fertilizer with 4-6 percent magnesium until flowers appear.

Then, feed the plant every two weeks.

Water and mist the pineapple twice a week during active growth, and once a week in winter.

Make sure the soil moisture level is not too high.
