Cultivation Guidelines
Soil Selection: Performs best in medium to heavy black soils with good water-holding capacity.
Sowing Time: Best suited for Kharif sowing. Early sowing helps the plant establish a deep root system before the peak reproductive phase.
Recommended Spacing:
Irrigated Conditions: 120 cm x 60 cm or 150 cm x 60 cm.
Rainfed Conditions: 90 cm x 60 cm or 120 cm x 45 cm.
Nutrient Management: To reach its full potential, follow a balanced NPK schedule. A foliar spray of a specialized nutrient like AcuSpray Cotton Special during the flowering stage can further boost boll weight.
