Since it is quiet here, I'll give you an update on my pineapple!

I posted the blossom two months ago, it has turned into a proper fruit. I expect it to grow twice this size before harvest. On the left you can see the dried-out stem of the first fruit. The new stem branched off sideways. I have squeezed in a stone from below to keep it upright. The fruit will soon need support from above, or risk toppling.

The leaves are a bit of a hazard, sharp and pointy as the fruit crown. I'm cutting the tips before they reach eye-level.

Growing next to the pineapple is a young cotton plant (hopeful) and the top of an avocado (dying).
