How to Grow Mini Pineapples From Tops - Extra Tips & NO rooting in Water Required!

"cut the top off, and bung it into the ground" this guy is a legend. People like this inspired me to get into gardening.

How to grow a pine apple in America 1) cut the top off 2) plant it in the ground 3) wait 18 mounts 4) eat the squirrels that ate your pineapple the night before you were going to harvest it

This is my favorite gardening channel. Mark’s knowledge, perspective, temperament, and optimistic realism is inspiring to me. I live in a 9b plant hardiness zone. I’m thinking pineapples may be in my gardening future.

"Bung it in the ground," is one of the greatest pieces of gardening advice I've ever heard.

Very informative. Thank you! Also loved your performance as Maximus in Gladiator.

I didn't even know mini pineapples existed until today. They're frickin cute!

Him:"they're so easy to grow, you really can't fail" Me: stares at my 5 dead pineapple tops.

'They can get stuffed.' I like you, man. Lol

OMG, him eating it at the end. THAT'S what I was anticipating. Sooooo satisfying. You KNOW I'm gonna buy a pineapple next time I go to town now. 😅

Yes. Finally a str8 forward no long intros. Gardening lesson

I'm right there with you, my friend! I've got 9 in the ground, two in pots, and three more tops waiting for potting soil. For some reason, here in Central Florida, they seem to do better if I plant them in a pot first, perhaps because we get so much rain. This year I got five beautiful pineapples - Ate two and canned the other three! Even home-canned they are much better than commerical!

You had me at "Cut the top off and bang it in the ground." Made my day! I'll be trying this method this evening. Thank you for the awesome video! :):):)

I've gotten 3 mini pineapples from one big one over the fast few years. The 4th tree is growing up now. The sweetest pineapples I've ever tasted.

I have noticed pineapples being sold with the tops removed recently, and, yes, that's petty, selfish, and ridiculous of the famers to do that. What, like, we little people are going to suddenly grow a pineapple plantation from the tops and take business away from them? Thank you for telling people not to buy those with the tops removed -- I agree! I love your honest, no-nonsense, and simplistic approach to gardening. I enjoy all your videos. You do a fab job! Thank you!

Just harvested ours and it was about the same size and color as the one your holding and it was honestly the best pineapple I have ever ate!!

You're so funny lol we share the same sarcasm and I do the same things when people ask me how I grow certain things. "Well, it's tough, but you throw it into the ground." hahaha

I bought a pineapple plant from a florist 2 months ago and planted it at home. It has fascinated me so much I decided to do what you do and grow my own pineapples at home! I have 6 plants going now and I can tell you one thing, even if you can find a pineapple at the grocery store with the top still on it (mostly Coles has them), the top is still nowhere near as excellent as one you can buy from a fruit shop. I like to put my store bought pineapples next to my pineapple plant for a few days before taking the top off and eventually eating them. I'm not sure if it actually makes any difference but I swear the pineapples taste so much better after they've all mingled! Thank you for you video!

You quickly became one of my favorite youtubers

Day 23 of coronavirus shelter-at-home, and this is the first thing to make me actually laugh out loud. i love pineapple and want to plant them myself, and everything this guy said in this video has been both informative and hilarious. keep at it, man!
