Growing Environment

  • Soil Texture: Sandy Soil

    Large particles, gritty, excellent drainage, poor nutrient retention.

  • pH Range: 7.9 - 8.4

    High alkalinity, nutrients like iron, zinc, and phosphorus may be less available.

  • Organic Matter: Moderate (2% - 4%)

    Adequate organic matter levels, common in well-managed agricultural soils.

  • Salinity Level: 8 - 16 (Strongly Saline)

    High salinity level, most conventional crops will struggle to grow.
    Impact: Only highly salt-tolerant crops like beets, spinach, and certain grasses can grow effectively.

  • Hardiness Zone: 13A (Min: 60°F, Max: 65°F)
  • Humidity: Very High

    Extremely humid; often found in rainforests or during summer storms.
    Impact: High risk of fungal diseases; some plants thrive, but most require careful management to prevent rot.

  • Water Requirement: 0 - 0 inches per week
