    The first, and most important, thing will be the climate. This plant will not tolerate cool temperatures. As for nutrients- These are not picky. The trick is to make sure that you never use the nutrients at high concentration. It should be properly diluted. I have used cheap granular fertilizers, and Really expensive, top of the line liquid pharmaceutical grade nutrients. They respond well either way. These are full sun plants, and do like a little sand in the soil. This is not fully necessary but will help.

    You can strip away a few of the lower leaves to expose about 1 inch of the base of the crown.

    The remaining leaves should be left intact.

    This is common on the Pineapple plants, as new leaves grow, the lower leaves will brown.
    You can use a sterile knife to remove the lower leaves as they turn brown. Make sure you do not injure the stem.
