Ananas comosus or Pineapple is a plant that requires soil that is rich and well-drained to grow well. Special Bromeliaceae soil mix seems to be the best solution for your ananas comosus. Ananas comosus never grows far-reaching roots, which is why a small pot, about 6 inches (15 cm), is more than enough. You will only need to repot when you want to split new shoots from the main plant. Ananas comosus requires well drained substrate, which is why adding sand is relevant. Ananas comosus roots hate having too much water. Double-check that the pot has a hole drilled in the bottom.
