Yep. The first one I grew last year had all of those notes, too. I got it started late and had to keep it under a grow light and heat lamp. It was ready in January.

The acidity in the store bought ones is due to them not being ripe. A ripe pineapple is very sweet with some faint tartness.

I’ve just started on this journey. After a few false starts that died, I finally got one to root well. The plant is about 8 months old now and looks pretty happy.
