Mine is the exact same unfortunately. Lots of brown edges etc! My other Bromelia is loving life. But pineapple not so much!

I had so much trouble with mine initially. I repotted it in a citrus tree soil and it’s been thriving ever since. If you ever see any tinges of purple then it needs fertilizer. Good luck!
