You have an escapee hiding lower left in pic
I've grown a few. Here at work we've harvested 2 or 3 pineapples. It takes a couple of years. You have to cover them if it gets down in the 20's. I've had a few at home too, but have a harder time keeping them alive. Between cold and dry weather I've never had one live long enough to make a fruit.I grew pineapples in my front yard in FL.
They looked nice. Although not as sweet as Dole I didn't really expect them to be as I never catered to them other than to plant
and pick.
The flower on them is actually very pretty.I've grown a few. Here at work we've harvested 2 or 3 pineapples. It takes a couple of years. You have to cover them if it gets down in the 20's.

Yeah, but you ever been in a field of them in flops & shorts?The flower on them is actually very pretty.
nice yea we boil ours usually because we usually don't got the time to be smoking them for that long. i always wanted to get into smoking/bbqing though you don't see a whole lot of people here in Hawaii smoking/bbqing like that. imma try in the future make some ribs usually when my dad makes um the ribs are tough as shit and they taste like straight up smoke like your taking shots of liquid smoke lol.I smoke them fully at a low temp. 225 F is what I do.. Never boil meat prior to smoking. You take away flavor and the fat that you want to keep the meat moist while smoking. I've boiled things like chicken thighs before barbecuing because they can get dry on the outside before the inside is thoroughly done but I use a broth with garlic and other seasonings to do it in so I'm adding flavor not taking it away.
I use the 3 - 2 -1 method. Smoke for three hours at 225 F, wrap in foil for two, then out of the foil for another hour.
I slathered them with mustard and then rubbed them down last night with a variation of Meatheads Memphis dust. I brushed them with honey before they went in the smoker. Then I baste them with barbecue sauce for the last hour out of the foil. I don't get fancy with the sauce. I've found that plain old original Bulls eye taste just fine. I played around with making my own sauce and while it was good maybe a little better it wasn't worth the effort. I get Bull's Eye by the gallon at Smart Food Service for $13. I don't care for all those expensive designer sauces out there. They're like cannabis specific nutes. Overpriced and not necessarily that good. I personally like just a dry rubbed rib with maybe some sauce on the side but everyone else seems to like a sweeter saucy rib so I use honey and sauce in the smoking process. They're still damn good but a savory dry smoked rib is my favorite.
nice we got a pineapple plant or had one not sure where the hell it went. i got a few ideas of what i want to do next. im looking at bonsai's and then im looking at some fruit tree's. papaya's grow crazy here but they are easy to growNope, that's how she is, I think I picked it up from Lowes or HD. Wife is growing a plumeria and we have two pineapple plants.
Can you swim?
I'm OK with it. The veggie gardens are all tilled and planted pretty much.gonna be pissed
No, but I have to move them into the house in the fall. They are right up there with Pampas Grass as far as hacksaw leaves.You leave bleeding.
I found a nest up in the peach tree. I think it was from the scrub jays we have. Unfortunately I think the Raven's found it and had a meal because it was empty.
