I plant just about every pineapple top I get. I just harvested this one this morning from the yard.


Probably could have left it for another day or two, but I could just start to get that pineapple smell. But usually if I wait after I can smell it, the possums will get to it the night before I plan to harvest it. And I find it already eaten when I go out to get it, or it was dragged away (which would explain some of the locations that pineapples are growing in my yard, from those tops).

Kbud, as for sugarcane, I have Black and Red growing in pots. Going to be planting some Green today. When my dogs are in the grass eating mood, they like to eat the leaves of the Red (or the lemon grass) so it isn't as large as it should be (which is why I put it in a pot and moved it to the front yard). If you are not in another country send me a PM and I will see what I can find to send ya (I know I have more Green than I need to plant).
