Looking for a reliable cotton plant to grow? Look no further than Gossypium hirsutum, also known as American Upland Cotton, Mexican Cotton, Upland Cotton, or Wild Cotton. This species is the most widely planted cotton in the United States, making up 95% of all cotton production. Worldwide, it accounts for about 90% of all production for this type of cotton. It's easy to see why - this is the most important cotton of commerce, and it's widely grown in regions of the world with long growing seasons that allow the fruit to mature.
Native to Central America and possibly Mexico, Gossypium hirsutum requires a minimum of 140 days from planting to harvest. However, it's worth the wait. Once the plant reaches maturity, it produces high-quality fibers that are perfect for a variety of textile applications. Whether you're a farmer looking to diversify your crops or a textile manufacturer seeking top-quality cotton fibers, Gossypium hirsutum is an excellent choice.
