How to grow Tomato 'Hawaiian Pineapple'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Hawaiian Pineapple is thought of as tender, so remember to wait until your soil is warm and the night time temperature is well above freezing before moving outside. Hawaiian Pineapple needs a loamy soil with a ph of 5.0 to 6.0 (moderately acidic soil to weakly acidic soil).

Growing Hawaiian Pineapple from seed

Start seeds indoors six weeks before last frost date.

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 2.60 feet (80.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.78 inches (2.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 12°C / 54°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Hawaiian Pineapple about 42 days before your last frost date.

Transplanting Hawaiian Pineapple

Plant to the first set of true leaves to promote strong root growth.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Hawaiian Pineapple is a tender plant.

Harvesting Hawaiian Pineapple

This variety tends to be ready for harvesting by late summer.
