When is Sweetio pineapple in season in Singapore?

How do I pick a ripe pineapple?
Smell: Sweet at the base. No smell means unripe, a vinegar smell means overripe. Leaves: A centre leaf that pulls out easily is a good sign. Feel: Firm with a slight give, heavy for its size. Avoid: Soft, dark or weeping patches.
How should I store pineapple?
Counter whole, fridge cut. Lasts 2–3 days whole, 4–5 days cut. Pineapple doesn't sweeten after picking. Stand it upside down for a day to spread the sugar.
