I only ask this because I'm in the process of re-wicking my Rose and just realised that it hasn't been re-wicked since I built this coil on 11th Sept It was starting to get a very tight draw so I thought I'd have a look, the wick was almost solid in there, I've finally got it out, everything looks OK so I'll re-wick it later

I have a 9 week old build, both coil and wick in my plumeveil I use 1 juice mainly apart from spacejam Andromeda which I use maybe once a month (payday) but if I'm feeling lazy just keep the wick in...

This one was fine until my 2nd tank of CLC in 2 days, the draw then got VERY tight

A clean wick is the key to good flavour, especially with gunky juices like custards. I change my wick every couple of days, or when I see it starting to discolour. It's quick and easy on the atties I use (herons and the like), and cotton is so cheap, so I change it often.

Just when it needs it. with cotton (grahams cellucotton - not the rayon one)

Kayfuns I have to change the wick after every tank. Genesis technically never (ss rope), but the coils & mesh around the top degrade and I change them after about a month of 8-10 ml daily use although the one I am using was done before Vapefest.
e: I steam clean & dry-burn the genis 2 or 3 a week with a hand-held steam cleaner.

Hmmm so just over a month of 5-8ml a day could explain why the wick was a little black and hard to remove
