Yes it has been in a north east facing window the whole time. I don’t think my apartment was quite warm enough for the plant to flower for a long time so it took longer than it should have but this year I got lucky I guess.

Well I originally propagated the plant from a store bought pineapple almost 5 years ago and it finally began to flower about 4 months ago. Check out my other posts on this sub I think this is the 4th post I’ve made since I first noticed It was starting to flower

I feel like pineapple quality should be the term used to describe ultra high quality pics now like the opposite of potato quality because they are such an impressive thing. I’m going to start describing really nice high quality photos as pineapple quality from now on haha

This is the first pic that I have of the plant that I took presumably because it was when it was actually showing growth. I’m guessing that this was a few months after I originally jammed it in this weird rectangle pot. This was from September 2020 so I probably bought the original pineapple sometime around the original covid lockdown. I guess it is closer to 4 years and a couple months old actually. I have only repotted it once since then and it has only ever been in that window.

From what I’ve read, it’s like 2 years to grow and then it’s another 6 or more months to actually grow a full fruit. Thing is, it’ll lay dormant when it gets cooler conditions and takes a while of proper warm conditions to finally flower. Or something along those lines.

That’s an incredible story. All of my plants are rescues and because of the shit light situation that I have in my apartment they are all leggy but I have given out so many pups from offshoots and broken off branches that all thrive. It’s like a little orphan village in my windows now.

I stuck this thing in succulent dirt, in that pot, from a right off the top of a grocery store pineapple 5 years ago and figured that it would never have a shot to flower because it’s in a north east facing window, but I always thought it was a cool thing to look at that I kept alive. I’m shocked that it’s actually flowering. I had to share.

Doesn’t matter much to me as far as high score type fulfillment fluff but as someone who likes stats and something to reference information about where I’m at is interesting at least and appreciated for the sake of being knowing. I always love video games that had a full stat page on the options like gta

I agree with the dislike button thing. I’m using wefwef so it’s basically an Apollo clone so I can see my cumulative stats so I guess to me they mean something. I guess everywhere has its own system so it’s a side effect of decentralized community.

Edit: removed a word

This is one thing I’ve been trying to figure out, I keep hearing this a lot. What exactly is different with the upvotes and downvotes? Do they not bury comments and posts or something? Serious question just trying to be informed
