Watching (I should say listening to) the TV I would clean the cotton of the debris first and put it into the basket....then I would remove the debris from the blue pan and put the cleaner cotton back into the pan...where I had a little baggie, I would then pull the cotton from the seed and place that fluffed piece into the basket and the seed in the little baggie...it was a good little routine,and it amazed me how white , fluffy and clean the cotton became...almost like a dish of ice cream :o)
Hi Ginny, you are a true Cotton Gin! LOL. You did a great job and I am so glad you can make something out of it. The cotton fields are now pretty bare due to the high winds. The dirt has been blowing all day today. So unfortunatley, I may not be able to get anymore out of the fields. But there is next year's harvest! Have a merry Christmas, blessings, Kathleen

It is good to know the cotton cleans up pretty good since I have a basket of it waiting for me.
