I have had better luck starting mine in water. Prepare by twisting off the top, removing the lower leaves and cutting off a little of the bottom to make sure you removed all the fruit. Then I put the bottom part that I removed the leaves from in warm water and put it in indirect sun. I change the water daily and in about two weeks you should see some nice roots growing. They will be a white color. The middle might start to rot on you. Don't worry, just remove the rotted parts. If you don't see roots in a couple of weeks it most likely died.
