Pineapples are a croppin

The pineapple patch has a few pineapples coming on thanks to the heat this summer a super plant to grow the bromeliad with a bonus fruit that’s pretty nice to eat

Nice! Everyone I've talked to says home-grown pineapples taste better. That may be psychological but that's OK too. 

How wide are your plants when they begin to fruit?

Here, I need to keep them in containers to protect during the coldest days/weeks of winter. I was told they'd fruit the second year, but so far, nada.

They do taste better than commercial ones for sure something about home grown the plants are about 50 cm wide leaves so about medium to large they do do take a long time to fruit these ones around 5 years I have seen them take even longer try more water in the dry weather but obviously not in the cold weather
