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.
Growing More Pineapples: All of those new pineapples can be rooted to make more plants. When you harvest your pineapples, look at the base of the fruit for small baby shoots. Harvest your pineapple carefully, leaving these shoots to grow a little. They can then be gently removed and planted in their own pots.
