Vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors are synthesized in the liver. Consequently, severe liver disease results in lower blood levels of vitamin K-dependent clotting factors and an increased risk for uncontrolled bleeding (hemorrhage) (8) .
To grow well, pineapples have certain soil requirements. Pineapples need well-drained soil because they cannot withstand a waterlogged growing medium. For this reason, the best soil for growing pineapples is a sandy loam, because sand allows for rapid leaching, or water movement, through the soil. While pineapples dislike waterlogged soil, they are drought-tolerant, but require even moisture for proper fruit development.
Step 8: Repot Pineapple Plant. Once your pineapple has firmly rooted, it will begin growing new leaves from the center. At this point, you can repot the plant in a 10â to 12â pot, using a rich but fast draining potting mix. After about a year of growing, you can move it to its final home in a large 5 gallon planter. Growing More Pineapples: All of those new pineapples can be rooted to make more plants. 2  When you harvest your pineapples, look at the base of the fruit for small baby shoots. 3  Harvest your pineapple carefully, leaving these shoots to grow a little. 4  They can then be gently removed and planted in their own pots.
