PINEAPPLE STARTER PLANTS: Floride Strain Del Monte Gold Fully Rooted Plants

Description: Offered for sale is this ready to plant, well rooted, healthy, pest free, one-year old pineapple plant. The plant is in good health and ready to go directly into your land scape or patio container. While they will thrive in direct sunlight, they also do well in partial shade with adequate water and nutrients. Pineapple plants do not tolerate freezing temperatures below 28°F. so it’s best to take them in, or get them under cover if freezing temperatures threaten. While the plants are tolerant of dry soil and weather conditions, optimum grow and fruit production will increase with some occasional watering during drought conditions. Likewise, pineapple plants are not tolerant of excessively or continuously wet or flooded soil conditions. Once the plant has produced between 70 and 80 leaves it is ready to flower. This normally occurs between 18 to 24 months from time of planting (depending upon cultivar, weather, water, nutrient availability and other growing conditions). Individual pineapple plants may produce up to two fruit (the ratoon or second crop is produced from a sucker that arises below the fruit and is allowed to grow). These plants will grow best in moderately fertile, sandy loam and soil’s of neutral to mildly acid pH. The fruit may be used fresh, made into candies, incorporated into cooking dishes and desserts, juiced, dried, or mixed with other fruits to make delicious smoothies. The fruit is a great source of potassium, vitamin C and vitamin A. Our pineapples are easy to grow organically. We have never had any issues with pest or insects that required chemical sprays.
