There are two methods of propagating pineapples: sowing and dividing. Propagation by sowing requires artificial pollination. The pollen from the stamens is applied to the pistils, and seed pods can be produced after 4 months. Take out the seeds and place them on moist stones. Control the temperature above 20°C. They will germinate in 5-6 days. The division should be done after the mother plant blooms. Separate the strong lateral buds that have grown, leave them for a month, spray water once a week, and wait for roots to take root.

1. Sowing and propagation

1. Artificial pollination: If you want to obtain the seeds of pineapple, you must pollinate them manually. Since it can self-pollinate, you can dip the pollen from the stamens and sprinkle it over the pistils to complete pollination. Be sure not to touch water before and after pollination, otherwise the success rate will be greatly affected. After four months, seed pods will grow.

2. Collect seeds and sow them: Take out the seeds from the seed pods and sow them immediately. Since it doesn't grow in soil or water, you don't have to worry about preparing potting soil. Just find rocks or dead wood to plant it.

3. Maintenance and germination: seeds should be kept moist environment, but there should be no stagnant water. The temperature should be controlled above 20°C, and appropriate light should be given to it, but exposure to the sun should be avoided. After 5-6 days, the seeds will turn green, which means they have germinated.

4. Seedling management: The pineapple in the seedling stage needs to grow for a long time. At this time, just ensure the appropriate temperature and sufficient light, and spray some water when dry. When the temperature is too high in summer, proper cooling is required. In winter, when the temperature is below 10°C, it is also necessary to keep warm.

2. Propagation by divisions

< p>1. Separate lateral buds: After the pineapple blooms, it will grow a lot of lateral buds. The lateral buds grow very quickly, and when they are the right size, they can be separated from the mother plant. After separation, both the lateral buds and the mother plant must be carefully maintained to ensure their rapid recovery.

2. Follow-up maintenance: Place the separated lateral buds for one month, spray water once a week, but do not soak them in water. Wait until new roots grow, then it can be put on the pot, and then you can maintain it normally.
