tootie04 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Wicking WILL be different...I used KY 125 for years and once we got a bad batch of 125 so vicky sent out the pure soy ,and to me, it is a BIG difference!!What kinda jars are you using??You may find you like the 125 better than the pure soy!!tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justcountry Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 I'm using pint jars and a pot jar that I double wick in the pint I use and eco 14 in the pot jar that is 4 inches across in the middle a litlle smaller at the top and bottom I use two eco 8 I can use a 16 in this one but with some fos it has hang ups so the two just do a better job Thank Tootie ,Mavis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I dont use those jars....when I used that wax I used HTP 105's in the 9oz hex jars and I used the HTP 104's in the jelly jars. You will find the 125 easier to burn so try going down a wick size and see how it goes. tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justcountry Posted June 27, 2008 Author Share Posted June 27, 2008 Thanks Tootie I may just love this wax I had been ordering from cs and ky was cheaper so wish me luck shold be here tomorrow or the next day do you you think the eco will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbiepql Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I used both those waxes for years and never noticed a difference in wicking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tootie04 Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 I have no clue about ECO's I think I tested them but went to CD's instead. abbiepql....says she didnt notice a wicking difference and I did so as you can see no two candles are alike!! Another idea....call vicky and tell her what happened and see what she suggests to start with for wicking. I know she does not use ECO's though.There is a message board on her site....not near as busy as this one but maybe someone over there can help ya too.tootie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
