  1. actually i meant 24, 26 and 28 . sorry about that . I too am trying to wick a 4inch round apothacary . Trying very hard to single wick. thanks
  2. Hi Stella, I have been doing alot of reading today . Going through your posts. from what i read and what you wrote to me I see you really don't double wick. Can I ask what size jars you use
  3. I think I may have to do the same. I hate double wicking. I hated giving up my galss for this new one. i don't seem to have much choice. Your glass glow is so pretty . I never heard of them . Something new for me to learn. thanks
  4. Hi, I am struggling here with this same probelm . Using Libbey Lucida jar 4 inc. What was your final conclusion? Thanks
  5. you guys are really amazing. I can't tell you how nice it is to talk to people and get advice. Stella I am going to try the 20 and 24 CDN but if i am forced to double wick can you tell me where to start with the CDN what do you use? Thanks again
  6. Thank you . I had it all good until i couldn't get my jars anymore . Always something right?
  7. OMG you are wonderful . This is my first time on the forum and you are quick.sorry if you posted this before and i made you repeat yourself. May I ask a couple of more questions. If the 20 or 22 don't work and I have to double which CDN would you suggest? Do they muschroom Thanks so much
  8. I have a full time job a do some pc work from home along with this. I have been doing this for 3 years. This new jar is killing me. Do you have a system to share on how you set up testing. I can't seem to get to all my scents and jars tested without getting overwhelmed. Making up a batch of everything and wicking with so many differntent wicks I get so confused. You are right though shame on me
  9. thanks Stella so sorry I posted twice . I will get the hang of it

  11. I think I may have posted the first time to the wrong area. I am new to this forum. If I did sorry for the double post I recently had to switch jars to my new 4 inch libbey Lucida jar.I am having such trouble getting a good wick for this jar. I hate double wicking so I have tried just about everything else along with double wicking. I have tried 1-HTP1312 , 1-RRD 55, 1-RRD65 , 2x 60-44-18C, 2x HTP 126, 2x HTP 105, 2 xLX16 and 2xRRD 37 . I am at my wits end. I use a 100% soy(Plain 415) wax with approx. 1.50 FO . This has worked for me with my 3.75 inch jars which I can no longer get.Here are my results. RRD55 mushroom quickly RRD65 Mushroom very quickly HTP 1312 not a large enough melt pool after 4 hours 2x 60-44-18C Mushroom and burn very quickly 2xHTP 126 Burns very quickly and gets hot 2xHTP 105 is what I had settled on for the spring and summer . Feed back is after a couple of burn the wicks are drowning out 2 x RRD 37 or 2x LX16 I can see that the same might be happening as the HTP 105 HELP ! with the fall quickly approaching I am freaking out. Do you have any suggestions? I thought the RRD would be the answer to my prayers. Tell me about the CDN Series or anything else you might suggest. Thank you for you help Laura
