Growing Environment

  • Soil Texture: Loamy Soil

    Balanced mix of sand, silt, and clay, well-draining but retains moisture, highly fertile.

  • pH Range: 6.6 - 7.3

    Optimal for a wide range of plants, nutrient availability is high.

  • Organic Matter: Low (1% - 2%)

    Soils with some organic matter, but still insufficient for optimal plant growth.

  • Salinity Level: 4 - 8 (Moderately Saline)

    Salinity begins to affect many common crops, reducing their growth and yield.
    Impact: Moderate stress on crops like corn, wheat, and lettuce; salt-tolerant plants like barley may still thrive.

  • Humidity: Moderate

    Comfortable for most plants; typical for temperate regions.
    Impact: Generally ideal for most crops and plants; supports healthy growth and development.

  • Water Requirement: 1 - 2 inches per week

Nutrient Profile
