We cut this one yesterday. Its a del monte gold plant that Simon gave us a year or so ago.
Mark,That is one beautiful greenhouse set-up you have there.Good luck!Kevin Jones
Those black tanks would be good to store heat.No room inside for those tanks?
Nice project.Hope the expensive fan fogger works well for you and you get enough rain to sustain your cooling sistem.RO water is also an option in case its needed and if you can afford to buy that fan you can afford to pay the water from the RO installation also .Or polyphosphate filter better wich will stain your plant leaves but we do that with foliar fertiliser anyway.
That's very cool Mark. Do you graft onto many seeds like that one. If you could get a healthy mother plant, how much room do you really have for more trees?
Ate a Reed that got blown off the tree a week ago. It was rich and ripe enough such that the seed was sprouting, a first for Reed and so early in the season. Got the seed in water.
Nice Mark, your reeds are a little earlier than here. Extra heat from the GH.

Nice pineapple! What size pot do they fruit in?
That sounds small, interesting... Could the proliferation of pups have to do with the pot size?
I use a 7 gallon on the white jades and the plant gets giant. They usually make about 4 or 5 pups at the base and another 4 or 5 along the stem and under the fruit. The one in the pic is a smaller commercial type plant in 5gal.T
Beautiful pineapple Mark, we had a big White Jade a week ago was sweet an delicious right through the core all totally edible except skin of course I had it in squat 7-gal pot too!
