[QUOTE="Farmer Roy, post: 7895605, member: 71668"] a picker has rotating serrated spindles, that literally “pluck” the cotton from the bush. It can leave quite a bit behind, “tagging”, but what it does pick is generally the best quality fibre & is clean & free of trash a stripper has rotating brushes that “strip” everything off the bush, ALL the cotton lint, including short & weak fibres, but also any leaf or green bolls or anything else on the bush, so quite a bit of trash as well. But, strippers do have a mini gin on board which cleans a lot of trash out before it goes into the accumulator then bale chamber [/QUOTE]
