The silk worms complete spinning in 2 to 3 days but the cocoons should not be harvested at this time as the worms inside are still in the prepupal stage.
Harvesting should be done on the fifth day (7th day for bivoltine hybrids) when pupae are fully formed and hard.
Do not harvest when the pupa is in amber colour.
Dead and diseased worms on the mountages should be removed before harvest.
Marketing of cocoons should be done on the sixth day (8th day for bivoltine hybrids).
