Apples can adapt to most climates. It is the best choice for apple growth between 35-5 degrees north and south latitude. Apples need 1-16 calories and 12-18 days of frost-free weather.

warm in the day, cold at night and as much light radiation as possible are the prerequisites to ensure excellent quality. Apples can resist the frost of MINUS 4 C.

If the temperature is between -2.2℃ and -3.3℃ during flowering and fruiting, it will affect the yield. Compared with other deciduous crops, apples bloom later. It is most suitable for neutral and well-drained soil with pH value of 6.5.
