It started growing the normal pineapple a couple months ago, and I just noticed this parasitic twin popping out out the side
What is happening? Is it a pup? @TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world
Nope, pineapple plants (after fruiting) will produce multiple "pups" or offshoots from the base that'll each grow into new plants - it's how they naturaly propagate and why you'll often see clumps of them growing together in the wild.
