Cotton grows best in warm, temperate climates with long, hot summers and minimal frost. Ideal conditions include temperatures between 70°F to 100°F (21°C to 38°C) during the growing season, along with well-drained, fertile soil. Regions such as the Southern United States, including Texas, Georgia, and Mississippi, are particularly suited for cotton cultivation due to their climate and growing conditions. Adequate sunlight and consistent moisture during the early growth stages are also essential for optimal cotton production.
