Daria Blue Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I'm switching to Ecosoya wax and I'm curious what people have used for wicks with this wax. I'm leaning towards using hemp wicking.The candles that I make are pillars, typically 2 1/2 up to 4 inches wide.Does anyone have any advice? What's your experience with hemp wicks?Any advice, comments, suggestions, etc would be greatly appreciated!Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islandgirl Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 I have not used hemp in Ecosoya, but I have in the 415.Great melt pool with the hemp.They did mushroom a lot. I mean a lot. Many suppliers do not carry hemp, or if they do they are limited on sizes. When I ordered 1000 wicks from BCN, they were $70.00+.Now I use a different supplier for my wicks and I get 2000 for 84.00. (I chose not use hemp anymore due to price and shrooms.. LOL) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daria Blue Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks for the reply. I know they can be expensive so it is helpful getting other people's input before I go out and purchase it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
