Description

The listing, 100 Alabama COTTON seed(white)***NOTE NEW YEARS SPECIAL*** has ended.

Went to Co-Op to purchase cotton seeds and found out that I can't buy them. Your land has to be allotted for cotton growth just like wheat. then when I did find seed, it was almost $200 an ounce. SO, my grandson and I went to a local Alabama cotton gin and collected us some cotton that was spilled onto ground from the trucks hauling cotton from the fields.
Fresh from the fields in October 2013!! We collected so many cotton bolls this year that this auction will be for 100 seeds!! HOWEVER, If you'll cover the $5.80 for a small flat rate box, I'll STUFF IT FULL!!!! I'd guess over 1000 seeds!!


--------Note------ I planted just one seed this past summer to make sure they will germinate. It grew to over a foot tall after 30 days. Photo added of that plant. I have never noticed before that they have flowers. Yellow, white, and pink!! Thank you for watching.

I know nothing about cotton so excuse my ignorance but, is there a pic here of what the seeds look like or am I just not sure what I'm looking for?

First photo is cotton boll with seed. Second photo is seed removed from boll still in fuzz. Fuzz doesn't need to be removed from seed for seed to grow.

And when you see the cotton they are ready to be picked right? I'm interested in trying my hand at something new. How tall do they get? Bidding F&W

When the boll pops open exposing the cotton it is ready to pick at anytime BEFORE the next rain. As rain will cause it to start decay. The plant gets between 3 and 4 foot tall. About 20 pods containing 4 bolls each. Thank you for your interest.

I grow mine in planters. An 8 to 10" planter will yeld a 2 1/2 to 3 foor plant. A 12" and larger planter will yeld about a 4 foot plant. Thank you for your interest.
