Oops! While putting my supplies away recently I accidently mixed my CD 4 in with my CD 6 wicks! Is there a way to tell the difference between the two just by looking? It seems the size difference is so miniscule I'm having a hard time telling them apart. #rookiemistake. Thanks, all!

Thanks, everyone. I'm just going by a YouTube video I saw that said to add FO at 135. I'll try to add it right after from now on.
Any tips for a smoother pour? Most turned out well. Thanks again!

Good morning - I'm sure this topic has been discussed before but I'm having a few issues with my candles.
I poured last night into a 7 oz container (5 oz of wax) using GW464 heated to 185, added Cupcake Fragrance (1 oz per pound of wax) at 135, stirred 2 minutes then poured.
The wax on top is cracked near the wick and bumpy, also there is absolutely no hot throw at all, although I did get a cold throw.
Any ideas on what I did wrong or could be doing differently? I'm new to the medium of candle pouring and this is frustrating to say the least. Thank you!
Edit to add: I only poured about 14 hours ago - is that why there is no hot throw? Not cured long enough?
Mixed my wicks!

Thank you - I will take a look and see. I'll never make THAT mistake again.
