Ua ʻike maoli ʻia kēlā me kēia ʻo ka "cotton", akā ʻaʻole nona he manaʻo no ka mea. Kuhi maʻamau ka kapa o ka cotton i ka lole kūlohelohe, akā ʻo ka mea maoli ka mea kanu kanu - nā hua o kahi hua i kapa ʻia he cotton. ʻO lākou ke kumu kūpono no ka hana ʻana i nā lole kūlohelohe e like me cambric, chintz, satin a me nā mea ʻē aʻe. ʻAʻole nui nā hua wale nō, akā ke koena o ka mea kanu. No laila, ua hana ʻia ka aila mai nā hua, ma nā ʻenehana a me ka meaʻai, mai nā mea - pepa, a me ka mea kanu lāʻau i kau ʻia ma luna o ka holoholona holoholona. He aha ke ʻano o ka pīpī a pehea e hua ai ia?
ʻO ka moʻomeheu moʻomeheu
ʻO ka ʻōpiopio i ka kūlohelohe he mea kanu kanu lāʻau, kahi pili o ka mallow. ʻO ka pinepine pinepine ka mea e ulu a i ke ʻano o kahi pua, akā hiki i nā lāʻau āpau o nā hiʻohiʻona hoihoi, ʻoi aku ma mua o 5 m ke kiʻekiʻe. Ma hope o nā 7 mau lau e kū i nā kumu nui, kū aʻe, hoʻomaka nā pua kūmū i loko o ka sinuses a me nā lālā lāʻau.
He mea aloha ia ka manawa o ka nānā ʻana o ka lālā loiloi mua e hoʻoholo i ka palaka like ʻana o ka pāka e pili ana i ka wā o ka wā e hoʻomaʻūʻa: a hiki koke mai, ʻoi aku ka wikiwiki o ka hua ʻai, ka mea e pili ana ka ʻano.
I ka iei, ka pile o ka pūnaʻu he pivotal, me nā aʻa hou aʻe, he ʻeleʻele (ʻo ka nui loa 0.5 m hohonu i ka lepo) a hoʻomohala ʻia inā lawa ka lawa. Hiki i ke koʻokoʻo kiko ke hele i kahi hohonu i 2 m, a ʻo kona lōʻihi e hoʻomaka ana mai ka 80 cm a ʻoi aku paha.
E ulu i kahi moʻomeheu ma ka lūlū hua. ʻEkolu mau lā ma hope o ka ulu ʻana o nā hua, hoʻomaka ka pua o ka ʻūpī, a ua kīpī ʻia me kona nani: e like me nā pua nui ke ʻano he mau pua nani, maʻalahi a maʻalahi hoʻi paha. ʻOkoʻa paha ka kala o nā pua, akā he monophonic mau ia. ʻO nā ʻōpū mua he keʻokeʻo paha a he melemele paha, a i ko lākou ulu ʻana, huli lākou i ka poni a ʻulaʻula. Nani maoli ka mea kanu pua i kanu ʻia i kekahi manawa ma nā wahi kūʻokoʻa.
Nā hiʻohiʻona o ka fruiting
I ka pau ʻana o ka pua, i kahi o nā pua, i kūkulu ʻia nā hua hua i loko o ke ʻano o nā kapapena, ma loko o ia mea he hua he. Ulu ka ʻūpihi, ulu i ka nui, a ma hope o 7 mau pule ma hope o ka ulu ʻana, ua uhaʻi ʻia i mau ʻāpana, mai 2 a 5, mau ʻāpana nui, e hōʻike ana i nā ʻāpana ʻūpī keʻokeʻo i ʻohi ʻia i loko o ka pala. I ka nānā mua, ke ʻano e like me ka pōpoki o ke kaona hulu.
ʻO ka cotton kahi mea kanu hōʻino pilikino a he nui nā ʻano. ʻO ka ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o nā mea kanu a me ka lōʻihi, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka waiwai o nā ʻano.
Hoʻopili ʻia ke hōʻiliʻili ʻana i nā mahele he nui, no ka mea ʻaʻole e ʻoki nā pahu i ka manawa like. I kekahi manawa, ua hana maʻalahi ia, akā i kēia lā ua hoʻohana ka poʻe nui i nā mīkini kūikawā no kēia, ʻoiai ma kekahi mau ʻāina e noho mau nei ka ʻano kanaka.
