What is raw cotton?

Answer 1

Raw cotton is cotton straight off the plant. Cotton grows on a bushy type of plant that is planted each spring. The plant has flowers on it that become cotton bolls. In the fall the plant is killed , so the cotton can be picked. The bolls open and you have raw unprocessed cotton. A cotton picker goes through the field and gets the raw cotton off of the dead stems. It takes about 3 times before the field is cleaned. The picked cotton is put into big trailers and taken to a cotton gin where the seeds are removed and packed into bales. Raw cotton is dense and can itch when you touch it.
