 Here is a picture of what's inside the pod or boll . 4 or 5 chambers on the pod each with 2 or 3 seeds in it . Cotton Strippers are more like rakes in that they rakes the pod loose . The machine cleans it some and then it dumped into a module builder ( smasher) and then the mill comes and hauls it the the gin mill for the final processing before a textile mill would purchase. Pretty neat process for someone who has only been around beans corn and wheat.

That looks like quite a show, like all brand new machines!
Closest I've seen cotton is watching griggs farms on YouTube. Modules and bales. They do a lot of corn and beans and how I started watching.
Now I'll have to look up how the AC's work.
