Last Updated: 2024/11/22, It generally takes 70 days for cotton to be harvested from boll opening to harvest, so it must be harvested many times, and the time for timely flower harvest is generally 7 days after cotton boll cracking. Generally, flower harvesting has the following requirements: 1. Flower harvesting technology: mainly adopts "three clean" and "five points" flower harvesting method. "Sanjing" refers to the net plant, shell and ground when the flowers are harvested. "five points" refers to picking, drying, storing, rolling and selling. When picking cotton, good flowers, stiff petal cotton and ground cotton should be picked, dried and stored separately, and should not be mixed together.

It usually takes 70 days for cotton to be harvested from boll opening to harvest, so it must be harvested several times. The timely harvest time is generally 7 days after boll cracking, and flower harvesting generally has the following requirements:

1. Flower harvesting technology: mainly adopt "three clean" and "five points" flower harvesting method. "Sanjing" refers to the net plant, shell and ground when collecting flowers, while "five points" refers to picking, drying, storing, rolling and selling. When picking cotton, good flowers, stiff petal cotton and ground cotton should be picked separately, sunny and stored separately, and cannot be mixed together so that they can be sold at different levels.

2. Pick at the right time. After cotton bolls are opened, they are generally picked every 5 min 7 days. If picked too early, the cotton fiber is not yet fully mature, and the output and quality will be reduced; if picked too late, the cotton fiber will be pulled down, the color will be polluted, and the cotton quality will be reduced. Therefore, the cotton boll opening stage should be harvested in a timely manner to improve the cotton fiber quality and grade.

3. Prevent the rain. After the mature cotton wool encounters rain, the pigment of cotton shell, cotton leaf and wrapped leaf will pollute the cotton fiber, making the white cotton fiber appear yellow, red and gray spots, and if it encounters continuous rain, it will also cause mildew and deterioration, therefore, it is necessary to grasp the weather changes at any time, pay attention to the weather forecast, and pick cotton before the rain.

4. Spray to accelerate ripening. In the late stage of boll opening, pesticides were used to accelerate the ripening of basically mature green bolls and make them harvest flowers in advance, which can not only reduce the harm of autumn rain, increase the quality of cotton by more than 20%, but also pull stalks ahead of time for 7 days, which is beneficial to the sowing of spring crops.
