Who does not like this miracle fruit? It can be bought in any supermarket, but not everyone knows that it can be planted at home, and he will delight you not one year. It is good that Pineapple can be eaten, enjoying his delicious pulp, and then putting into a pot, admire the exotic on her window.
This tropical representative of the Bromeliev family is surprisingly grown. I will start with the fact that for planting you need to choose a very ripe fruit, without signs of damage and rot, with a well-developed green top. It is better to do this in the warm season, then the rooting will be one hundred percent. Corrently sharp knife cut off the top with the leaves, leaving about 1-2 cm at the base. Drink a wound surface with crowded coal
and we leave for several days to dry in a vertical position in a dark place.
Then get ready for landing. To do this, you will need a shallow pot, approximately 30 cm in diameter. Pineapple starts the roots are not deep, but styling. And he also loves the soil that easily absorbs moisture, not giving water stagnation. That's why we mix the turf ground with sand (2: 1) and on the bottom, we smell a layer of clay. Front falling the soil. We make a small deepening and planted a bush. The pots cover with a plastic or glass cap to create a wet atmosphere and put in a warm place. For successful rooting in the room there must be a constant temperature not lower than 22-24 °. The top cuttings in the greenhouse with heating up to 25-28 ° are very well rooted.
Pressure roots are formed in 2-4 weeks. At first, about 3 months, you will not see any changes, and then new green leaves will appear from the outlet. Watering pineapple is needed by warm watering water as the surface of the earth in the pot. In the summer, during the period of active growth and flowering, in a rosette I pour some water, periodically adding a weak solution of liquid fertilizer into it. In order to get a flowering and fruiting plant at home, pineapple needs good lighting (at least 4 hours of direct sunlight daily and constant high temperature (18-22 °).
With a lack of light, pineapple leaves are discolored, losing a bright color. Therefore, it is desirable to arrange it on the sunny windowsill. Every two weeks feed the complex liquid fertilizer. The plant loves fresh air, so in the summer is located on a sunny balcony.
For 2-3 years, pineapple picks up a lush green hat of beautiful leaves. A plant obtained from the top cuttings is blooming, on the third fourth year. But pineapple older than one year can be encouraged to flow, if you conclude it for a week into a spacious plastic bag with several ripe apples.
Ethylene appleeds contributes to the development of flowers. Pineapple after that blooms in a few months. Ripened the nollion cut off, after which the fruiting escape dies, leaving behind the new side outlets. In the close pot, pineapple does not give off and after flowering can die completely. Therefore, pineapple, as it grows, every year you need to transplanted into the container of larger size. Formed kids searched in separate containers. And the whole cycle is repeated again until another miracle appears. For the sake of the leaves with a motley color, extraordinarily beautiful inflorescences and juicy fruits worth growing this plant at home.
By the way ... If growing room pineapples, the taste and aroma of their fruits will be much better than that of purchased. The fact is that at home the fruit matures completely, and in trade, for considerations of transportation and safety, the fruits are never sold completely ripened.
