I am looking to get hotter wicks. It seems like a wood wick gives me a decent throw, but I don't want the look of a wood wick. I've used cd14 and cd12 in an 8 oz status jar with gw 464 and the burn tests are poor. After 3 hours it has barely touched the sides of the jar and there is no depth to speak of. Looking to try hemp. Anyone have any thoughts?

Because I'm new, I'm not sure how exactly to isolate my scent throw problem. I'm still waiting on good wicks to come in the mail, but I'm just not getting great throw. Using GW 464 and various wicks from CS and a few from hobby lobby and Michael's because I ran out of CS ones and I wanted to pour more. So my wax smells AMAZING on a candle warmer. Throw is great, but not so much when I burn the wick. Sometimes I get an okay melt pool, sometimes not, so I intend to try a lot of different wick brands until I find one, but I'm just not sure if the candle warmer test is isolating my problem to the wicks.
