Ну, смысл - это другое дело.
Я просто к тому, что выращивание ананасов в средних широтах вполне возможно, и, в принципе, не сложнее выращивания помидоров.
Нет, много сложнее.
Томат - однолетнее растение... а вот ананас
Цитата:
THE PINEAPPLE PLANT
The pineapple plant has a dense, shallow root system. It grows about 90cm high and bears long, stiff, prickly leaves. The fruit arises from the centre or heart of these leaves. After the fruit is removed, the mother plant produces a sucker from which another fruiting stem arises. This fruiting process can be repeated, over and over, for almost fifty years - the lifetime of a native plant.
However subsequent crop of pineapples is of a lesser size than the previous, hence the commercial farming practice of replacing plants after their second crop i.e. 3 years.
A new pineapple plant is grown from slips, crowns or suckers, not seeds, and the plant starts the flowering process about 12-14 months after planting. It is ready for harvesting usually about 20 months after it is planted. Each parent plant produces only one fruit.
Первый плод через 20 месяцев после посадки побега.
Так что только теплица с искусственным отоплением, в парниках зимой вымерзнет нафиг.
