Pineapple would be the nicest one I think I have ever had...

We have 3 on the go all grown from tops

The watermelon was sadly no where near as good...

You're making me jealous Dave :D:D:D

We just don't get nice pineapples over here. I'm just back from holidays in Thailand and overdosed on the lovely sweet pineapples they had there. Took me right back to childhood in Rocky.

This years pineapple is looking like the biggest one we have had:)

We have been growing them for several years from tops. Interesting our neighbor wanted to grow some but couldn't find tops at any fruit shops.
I am reluctant to give her any of ours as they take so long to grow.

The cherry tomatoes are plentiful though, gave our neighbor a small lot today. They seem to ripen overnight I take several one day and the next there are several more, I took about a dozen off yesterday and more today.

I had a couple of cucumber vines in was picking up to 4 cucumbers every couple of days for last 3 months, i pick them when they are around 100 to 150mm in length , they are very sweet, only pulled the vines out last weekend as they had stoped producing fruit.
I will plant some more seeds shortly, our 15 month old grand daughters love them , they have half a cucumber each every day for lunch.

Nice looking Pineapple Dave.
As Steve said,you don't get nice ones over here and its not tropical enough to grow your own.
The best ones over here come in a golden circle can.

Hard to believe that a hundred plus years ago, they were growing pineapples in the UK.:o

Glass houses and horse dung to keep the heat up, clever gardeners.:D

All I can grow are weeds, (not weed) but gee am I any good at it!!!:D

Only had 6 pineapples fruit this year. Had almost 20 last year. However they all end up a bit smaller than yours Dave as most are in partial shade - but they are certainly sweet. :)

About time you planted the pineapple...

[1950landy]

That Capsicum looks like a door knob off your kitchen cupboard next to the watermelon
