i have several pineapple plants and even had 2 of them fruit, first make sure the pineapple that you buy has not ben cored. (they will drill out the center of the leaves so that people cant grow plants from them) cut off the greens with up to an inch of fruit (it can be less than that also), peel off all the fruit, so that it doesnt rot, next peel off the bottom few layers of leaves, next put into a container with water, let the water go up to the leaves, and place it in a warm bright spot, mine sit in front of my southern facing window.good luck
