Thanks. If you have ever tasted a home grown pineapple you would know why I love them so much.

The ones you buy in the stores are picked too soon and have not had the time to get sweet.
When I grow them I let them turn orange before picking and then I turn them upside down and let them set for 3 days, this lets the sugars in them spread throughout. You never see fully ripe ones in the store. You can bring one home and in a few days it will turn orange but without ripening on the plant, it will not be sweet.
