I love the hemp wicks. I tried the zinc core wicks but switched back. All the wicks are great! I just prefer these

Test Run between CD & Hemp wick 01/27/2013

Reviewer: Melissa from Detroit, MI US

I made Votive "2 in diameter jar candles using Joy wax also.(great wax by the way!) I gave one to my friend as a gift for helping me. She told me there was a lot of mushrooming and black soot. So I did a test burn with the same jars, same wax & scent but different wicks, Hemp 1400, Hemp 838, CD 7 and CD12. Lit all four at the same time, in the same environment (no breeze) and wrote my results down every hour. The Hemp 1400, CD12 had a higher flame, hotter burn and a much larger melt pool. CD7 had a medium flame. There was also no scent. After 3 hours there was a large 'mushroom' developing on the Hemp 1400 and all of CD wicks as well. The Hemp 838 provided a nice melt pool, edge to edge and had a much smaller flame, NO mushrooming or black soot!! I could really smell my fragance(So thrill!) I will definately buy hemp 838 for the type of jars I used with my Joy wax.

I got the hemp 1400 and it was horrible in my votive jars. It smoke and the flames was high. I am going to try the hemp 838. So hopefully it works better.

Did a test burn in 3" jars with Hemp 1400 & HTP 73 11/11/2012

I made 3" diameter jar candles using Joy wax (which I love!) but i've been getting a lot of complaints about mushrooming and black soot. So I did a test burn with the same jars, same wax & scent but different wicks, Hemp 1400 and HTP 73. Lit both at the same time, in the same environment (no breeze) and documented the results. The Hemp 1400 had a higher flame, hotter burn and a much larger melt pool. After 2 hours there was a large 'mushroom' developing on the Hemp 1400, as well.
The HTP 73 provided a nice melt pool, edge to edge and had a much smaller flame, NO mushrooming or black soot!! I will definately buy HTP wicks in the future!! They are great in Joy wax!!

FINALLY A WICK THAT WORKS! 10/06/2012

I've been making candles for almost a year now and it has not been easy. I actually received a making kit from my husband with the wicks included.... BUMMER. The wicks were disappearing in the wax. Needless to say, i've tried other vendors and either my house was full of black smoke or very bad shrooming. I took my chances with these by the jars i had and i also ordered a slab of Joy Wax since i've had no luck with Paraffin alone or Soy, I LOVE IT! These wicks do not smoke or shroom A very CLEAN BURN I left one candle in the bathroom burning with the door close, when i opened it, WAH LAH NO BLACK SMOKE! I HEART THESE! :) They work awesome with the 6.5 hexagon jars.

Burns evenly but..... 07/03/2012

I use soy wax [GB464] and my main selling point is that it doesn't put off soot. This hemp wick makes me look like a liar. I don't plan on using this anymore because it put off a lot of soot, smoke, and a bad smell when burning.

These wicks preform well for me in soy wax, like NG says, use a larger wick in soy wax.

I use several different kinds of wicks depending on the kind of jar I use. So far these have performed well. No black smoke. Will continue to purchase.

Ordering again 04/25/2011

Reviewer: Sara Amerine from Lawton, OK US

Best wicks I've used. Instead of having to use multiple wicks for larger candles, I can just use one of these in the middle. Saves $ and looks better.

Great wick 06/01/2010
|

Reviewer: Izabela from Cincinnati, OH US

I use 60048 Hemp in soy candles in 2" containers. I learned hard way that you have to up the wick size for soy wax. The HEMP wicks give great hot throw in soy. HEMP wicks is that they mushroom more than other wicks. I don't mind cuz I always trim my wicks and always tell my customers to do the same.

These are the best wicks for my soy candles. Burns all the way across. There is a little mushrooming, though. Other than that, they are perfect.

600048 will burn clean in libby 7oz square jars. Not a drop of soy wax is left on the sides of the jar.

I like the all natural part best and honestly these have performed the best for me - and I've tried about every wick imaginable. Nice clean even burn in my 8oz jelly jars with 100% soy.
