In which type of soil does cotton grow in?

Answer 1

Any soil that will hold water and nutrients enough to support it. Typically, cotton does best on well drained soils, which typically have a coarser texture (ie. sand). However cotton is grown everywhere from the light sands of South GA to heavy clays in Tennessee.

Answer 2

Cotton grows in a soil that is found in hot dry areas with good drainage . The plant takes a lot out of the soil, so after a few years crops are rotated. In the spring months of planting cotton they take a lot of water. I live in the Central Valley of California where a vast amount of cotton is grown. The soil here is hard pan with some clay.

Answer 3

Black soils, alluvial soils, and red sand loam are suitable for growing cotton.

Answer 4
