Comment on What's wrong with my pineapple plant?
bellsfry@thelemmy.club 1 month agoThe pot has holes in the bottom such that it was possible for soil to trickle out. Should I wait a while without watering and see if it gets better?

With a single plant it’s hard to know. I would cut the watering back to once a week without any additives. Give it a real soaking and let it drain and go dry over the week. Also, as soon as they little pineapple starts to turn yellow at the bottom (or when it smells like pineapple) cut it. It’s not going to get bigger than that, and that will tell the plant to put its energy into roots or a new stalk (pineapples are bromeliads , so they self-propagate). Good luck!
