Dry the leaves
After this is done, allow the crown to dry. Once it’s been left alone and dried for two days, it’s prepped for the next step.
Get a pot of soil and plant this top part of your pineapple. You can do this by twisting the crown into the ground like a screw, doing so delicately. Bury it up to the base of the leaves.
Afterward, it’s all about maintenance. Water your new pineapple plant from above every few days – once every four to five days should suffice. Try to place the pot in a bright, indirect light source for the best results.
Be sure not to overwater this plant since it has shallow roots and is, hence, vulnerable to root rot. Water it just once a week and wait until the soil isn’t damp anymore.
