________________________________________________________________________________________

Latin name - Ananas comosus

Pineapple plants are one of the most ubiquitous tropical fruit plants. Surprisingly, these bromeliads are in the same family as tree-dwelling epiphytes like Spanish moss.

The fruits are familiar, highly-palatable, and fun to grow. Pineapple plants prefer well-draining, sandy/loamy soil as their primary nemesis is root-rot. Container-growing your pineapples is absolutely acceptable and they take quite well to fruiting in a pot.

Pineapple plants, although fairly low-growers, create a wide footprint with their broad leaves. Feel free to cut leaves back out of your walking paths. Commercial growers practice this method regularly with no effect on fruit production.

After about 70-80 leaves have been produced (variety-dependent), a pineapple will begin to produce it’s flowering stem. Pineapples are seedless unless grown closely with other varieties or hand-pollinated for seed production. In the wild, pineapples are primarily pollinated by hummingbirds, but zero pollination is required to yield delicious fruits.

Pineapple fruits are high in water content (86%) and provide a rich source of manganese and Vitamin C. You’re likely well-aware that pineapples are widely used in drinks, confections, fruit salads, and straight up.

A little pineapple history…

Pineapples have been cultivated for centuries in their indigenous region of Central and South America, but were not introduced in Europe until the 17th century. It’s moniker is owed to the tendency of European explorers to name any novel round fruits “apples.” 

Explorer John Smith was one of the first to utter the term “pineapple” to describe this fruit in 1624. By the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, wealthy Europeans installed greenhouses or imported pineapples for display purposes, cycling them through use as centerpieces until they began to rot.

In the 1800’s, commercial production of select cultivars like ‘Smooth Cayenne’ began. The ‘Smooth Cayenne’ cultivar achieved worldwide diaspora as it was favored for commercial growth throughout Europe, Hawaii, Australia, and Africa.

How long until my pineapple fruits?

The time from planting to harvest depends on the part of the plant you are using to propagate the pineapple. Use the guide below to set your expectations regarding harvest timeline:

-Pineapple Crowns (the top of the fruit) can produce a new crop within 12-18 months.

-Pineapple Pups/Suckers (off-shoots from the side of the plant itself) can produce a new crop within 18-24 months.

-Pineapple Slips (baby plants taken from the bottom of a pineapple fruit) can produce a new crop after about 24+ months.

When to pick pineapples…

Pineapples typically mature in the warmest months. In South Florida, harvest season rolls from June through September. You can tell your fruit is ready to pick when color change begins and the fruit begins to emit scent. Some gardeners are able to leave their pineapples on the plant until full yellow coloration; Gardeners with rodent pests should pick their fruits as soon as yellow blush appears to avoid loss of your precious fruits.

Once in a while, you may experience the glory of an off-season pineapple at Thanksgiving or Christmas-time.

Not a bad oil filter wrench, actually!
Lots of hit or miss reviews here, but for me, it fits like a glove and easily allows me to apply the 25-26 Nm of torque needed to open or close my BMW oil filter cover (2020 M4 but most BMWs use the same type of filter cover). It does get on there pretty tight and might be hard to remove. Solutions: - wait for the engine to cool down a bit, and it will come right off - use a pick tool to loosen it

Great value and Perfect Fit
This little oil filter wrench fit my BMW M340i perfectly and made the job a breeze. It locked onto the cap snugly, with no slipping or wobbling, and let me remove and reinstall with confidence. The material feels sturdy for the price and if you use the proper torque instead of cranking down on the housing, it should last a long time. Highly recommend for DIY oil changes.

Perfect on 1999 Volvo v90 XC AWD
I had looked everywhere for an oil filter wrench that would fit the cartridge filter on this1999 Volvo v90 XC AWD. Nothing local worked and then there was the issue where the recommended filter wrench slipped. When I was ordering the 86.6mm wrench, I looked at the pictures and noticed it said if I had a specific type of marking on the housing then I would need this 86.4mm wrench instead. Thanks to that bit of info I can now replace the filter. Works 100% like a charm and filter was easy to remove with a standard ratchet. Wrench seems well made and the price was perfect, especially compared to some of the others that are $35+. Very satisfied with this purchase.
