Pineapple

Pineapples are growing all over my yard every year. Mostly May, June, July and August is the Pineapple Season here in Goa.

When we buy pineapples from market we cut off the top stem with the thorny leavy and replant.

This plant needs sufficient amount of sun and water. Even if you don't water mich there's no issue but if you want a larger healthier produce it is better to water a lot.

It takes 10 months for the fruit to grow and ripen. The fruit usually ripens from summer during April upto monsoons in August. The fruit is a rich antioxidant and a very good stomach cleanser.

The plant has thorny edges on its long narrow leaves. It needs rich fertile soil. During monsoons from June onwards the plants gets plenty of water to produce a large fruit.
