Default Re: Rooting pineapple

The plant does not need any roots at all to be planted. It is more important to grow it in the sunniest spot of your yard and in very well draining soil.
I dip slips, suckers or tops in mycorrhizae and plant them directly in well draining soil with perlite or lava rocks added and never had any problems. I am growing at least 20+ Sugarloaf pineapples this year and expect a lot more to fruit this year than the two delicious fruits I harvested last year.
