I love pinepples. I was wondering if anyone has luck growing them all year round? Is there a specific season or them? I may be moving to Florida in the near future and was thinking o what I would like to plant when I get there. I have a dream of haing a completely edible landscape.

I've grown them very easily in the Caribbean pretty much year round though they are said to peak between March/April and July/August. I would imagine that growing them in Central or Southern Florida would yield similar results.

Yes. Just as TheCC's indicated. Keep in mind that they take a while to grow! It's a labor of love. smiling smiley

Sure. I lived in Coral Springs / Tamarac a number of years. They'll grow fine. I'm up in Avon Park (near Lake Placid now)...which is also a plenty good spot. Those leaves get jaggedy! winking smiley

I like them too but it's too sad that those available here (Quebec) are picked up not riped and end up way too acidic.

I actually haven't had any problems with acidic fruits up until I started a raw diet. I guess my body is just sending me clearer messages about what I'm eating.

Hell, to days ago I ate some pineapple and it was so strong it burned my tongue and I got sweat on my face.

Anyways, looking forward to get good quality, ripe enough pineapples.
