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.

When do you pick lemons off the tree?

This varies enormously according to the variety. While an orange may look ripe when it changes from greenish to orange, it may not have developed sweetness. Taste and knowledge of the variety are the best guides, as an orange will not continue to ripen off the tree. Some will maintain quality if left on the tree, while others will deteriorate quickly. Some ripen in 6 months, while others can take up to a year.

Squirels have knocked pecans off tree. Will pecans ripen off the tree?

Once fully ripened, the hust around the pecan will have dried and opened so that the pecan inside is exposed. At this time, wind, rain, or some other external force causes some of the pecans to fall to the ground. Most will remain attached to the husk until the tree is shaken or a long pole is used to dislodge the pecans. Throwing sticks or rocks (not your spouse) up into the tree works as well .
