Growing a pineapple plant (Ananas comosus) can be a rewarding experience. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Choose a Healthy Pineapple: Select a fresh and healthy pineapple from the grocery store or local market. Look for one with green, vibrant leaves and no signs of damage or disease.

2. Prepare the Crown: Twist off or cut the crown (leafy top) from the pineapple, leaving a small amount of fruit attached. Allow the cut end to air dry for a day or two. This helps prevent rotting when planting.

3. Remove Excess Leaves: Gently pull off the bottom leaves of the crown to expose about an inch of the stem. This will be the part planted in the soil.

4. Rooting: Place the prepared crown in a jar of water, submerging the cut end. Change the water regularly. After a few weeks, you should start to see roots developing.

5. Planting in Soil: Once the roots are a few inches long, you can plant the crown in a well-draining potting mix. Plant it at a similar depth as it was in the water.

6. Sunlight: Pineapples thrive in full sun. Place the plant in a location that receives plenty of sunlight. If growing indoors, choose a sunny window.

7. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the growing season. Pineapples have shallow roots, so avoid waterlogged conditions. Reduce watering slightly in the dormant season.

8. Fertilization: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Follow the recommended rates on the fertilizer package.

9. Temperature: Pineapples prefer warm temperatures. If growing outdoors, ensure temperatures don't drop below 50°F (10°C).

10. Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch around the plant to retain moisture and control weeds.

11. Patience: Pineapples take time to grow and fruit. It can take anywhere from 18 months to 2 years for a pineapple plant to produce fruit.

12. Harvesting: Pineapples are ready for harvest when they have a sweet aroma and a golden color. Harvest by twisting or cutting the fruit from the plant.

Remember that pineapples are tropical plants, and they may require additional care in colder climates. Growing a pineapple from the crown is a fascinating process that can yield a delicious tropical fruit.
