It was totally green when I went on vacation. I watered it heavily beforehand knowing I would be away a couple weeks. Got back and boom, ready to eat! Not sure if it was because the soil got a bit dry. Smells very good.

Historywise, the bud started to emerge in June 2025. The plant was about 1.5 or so years old.

We took a trip to Maui in 2024 and visited the Maui Pineapple farm where we got 3 pineapples. The tour also went into the pineapple's lifecycle and how new pineapples are grown.

So... We potted the top of one of our pineapples. It's been growing for just over a year. Actually, just this morning I noticed it is in need of replanting as it's used up the soil.

Thank you dirthawker0 for giving me hope that we may one day have a pineapple.
