Pineapple can also be propagated by sowing seeds, pineapple from flowering to seed maturity usually takes 3-4 months. Pineapple seeds are very small, with one fruit producing dozens of seeds and one plant producing thousands of seeds. Pineapple seeds can be sown indoors in pots or in seedling trays.
Pineapple propagation by division is often done in the spring, and the survival rate of division is lower during the hot period. Cuttings, when the tiller buds 8 to 10 centimeters cut, inserted into the substrate of half of the rotting leaves and half of the coarse sand, keep the room temperature 25 ℃ - 28 ℃, about 30-40 days can be rooted.
Budding propagation method. Crown buds crown buds are attached to the top of the fruit, also known as terminal buds. Crown bud after planting leaves more, short, dense; root points, rooting fast; fruit large, flowering neat, fruit maturity also neat. Generally, it takes 2 years to bear fruit after planting. Suction buds grow in the leaf axils of the above-ground stems, also known as axillary buds, half belly buds. The sucker buds used as seedlings should be fully mature. Descendant buds descendant buds born on the fruit base or fruit stalk, also known as bracket buds. Thriving descent bud after planting its growth and fruiting time and yield the same as the crown bud, extra-large descent bud yield higher.
Pineapple to bud planting based on the selection of robust growth of the crown bud or descendant buds, which is the key to early results, the realization of high-quality cultivation. It can be cultivated throughout the year, with a higher survival rate in April-May planting. Choose a sunny day planting, first turn the ground 30 cm deep, 1500 kg per mu of rotted chicken manure, calcium magnesium phosphate fertilizer 50 kg, and then make the bed, planting 2500 plants per mu, plant, row spacing 35 cm; planting depth of the crown buds for 3-4 cm, descent buds to 6-7 cm is appropriate. Planting first according to the size of the plant will be separated from the buds, and then peeled off the base of the 2-3 leaves, and with 25% carbendazim 800 times the solution dipped buds at the base for 10 minutes, drying planting, planting found dry, rot, lack of plants to replant in a timely manner.
