2. Soil requirements. Pineapple has strong adaptability to soil, but its root system is shallow. It is best to plant loose and fertile sandy soil or mountain red soil with good drainage, and it is not suitable for soil with high viscosity and poor drainage. It also has strict requirements for soil, that is, pH value. Pineapple likes acidic soil, but avoids neutral and alkaline soil, which will lead to its poor growth, and the soil pH value is between 4 and 5.5.
3. Lighting requirements. Pineapple is native to tropical rain forest area, and can tolerate semi-shade. However, when planting artificially, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light duration, so as to grow well, accumulate sugar quickly, yield high and quality good. However, if the illumination is insufficient, it will lead to poor growth and development, low sweetness, high acidity and poor quality. General illumination is reduced by 20%, and yield is reduced by 10%. Although sufficient light is needed, in summer when the temperature is high, the sun is fierce, which will burn the leaves and lead to discoloration, and the fruit is also easy to burn. Pay attention to sun protection.
