1 minute = 60 seconds
The fact that it is a cotton picking minute is irrelevant.

A minute picking cotton seems much longer than 60 seconds.

I'm quite sure it's much longer than a normal minute.

I use cotton picking a lot, you have to be careful where you say it now. Some people get offended and think you are directing an insult toward them.

that came from cotton pickin' days, so the people that picked it were slow, so figure least 5 times longer than a regular minute

As an old coach, can't tell you how many non-cussing tirades (mostly southern and country ) I've had where the team had question marks above their heads. They had no idea what I said lol,

It's still a minute - they just want you to do something useful while you're waiting.

I understood it to be a non profanity slang expletive as in "Dog gone".
But according to Google search returns, I suppose you shouldn't use it anymore.

I'd guess that it'd take 14-16 cotton pickin' minutes to walk a country mile.
