Pingtung Pineapple

Bromeliad buds, sucker buds, tuber buds or crown buds can be used as propagation buds. Planting sprouts is the easiest and most convenient operation. If you want to speed up the propagation of seedlings, you can use old stem slices and crown bud leaf cuttings to speed up the propagation of seedlings. When harvesting sprouts, you must hold the base of the sprouts tightly and pick them off, then place them upside down on the mother plant to air-dry until the wounds are dry. When the plant is fully expanded and has more than 30 leaves, the flowering process can be started. Put the calcium carbide block into the water to produce acetylene as calcium carbide water, and fill the heart of the pineapple with the calcium carbide water. Apply organic fertilizer, ammonium sulfate, superphosphate, and potassium chloride as base fertilizer to adjust soil pH. Pineapple fruits are easily sunburned and lose their commercial value, so they must be treated with sunscreen. Method: Wear "sun hats" on 6 to 7 leaves around the fruit to also block sunlight exposure.
