How can you tell if a pinapple is ripe?
I like mine perfectly ripe. I know its ready when I pick it up and smell it. It will smell sweet and ripe. Sometimes it will smell sweet but it doesn't have the ripe smell and I don't cut it just yet. Don't cut into it too soon, it might be sweet but have some sourness too. When the smell is ready, the pineapple usually has a dark green color, and the leaves are starting to brown. Be careful how you store the pineapple waiting for it to ripen. If stored wrong, the bottom can start molding. If that happens you can cut it off but you will have less pineapple to serve. Store it on a rack, like a cooling rack used for hot baked goods. That way air can flow freely around the pineapple.

How do you ripen lemons quickly off the tree?
I don't know about quickly, but you turn a pineapple on its top and leave it on the counter for a day or two. It should smell sweet when ripe. If you leave it in a brown paper bag, I think that makes it ripen faster. It's also really easy to tell when it is ripe. Pull gently on the leaves towards the top or center and if the feel loose or come out it is ripe. Hope this helps some. Pulling on the leaves of a pineapple will not tell you if a pineapple is ripe, its just a urban myth.

First, place the pineapple long ways on a cutting board. Then slice off each of the ends, the top and the bottom. Then set the pineapple vertically. Slice off each of the sides.

Do pineapples go bad after sitting out in a hot house?
Of course there are variables like how ripe it was when purchased and just how hot your house is, but generally speaking an uncut pineapple should be OK sitting out for a couple to three weeks. If it's soft/squishy to the touch, it's gone bad. If cut and refrigerated, it will only last a few days. When purchasing a pineapple, a good rule of thumb to determine the ripeness is to pull one of the leaves from the center of the pineapple top. If it comes out relatively easy with a gentle pull, it's ripe. If it doesn't, it's not. Hope this helps.
