    Anyone gotten any update from JC on this lately? They had pledged to run this down and I know I won't order again if this doesn't get explained satisfactorily.

    I won't be upset if they come clean and own up to the problem. Stuff happens, especially when starting out. Recall the liquid, learn from your mistakes and move on. Nobody said this stuff was 100% unicorn tears...

    BTW... Unicorn tears are a MONSTER vape!

    Christian has stated that they waited for the return of a reported "suspect" bottle(s) from a client that was finallly received on Jan. 8th and have included it in there previous batch samples to a lab to be analyzed.

    He suspects results will be available in the week of Jan. 22nd.

    He has assured me that a copy of the report will be released to both myself (to post where I see fit to calm the alarmists) and to the general public.

    That is the latest on this fiasco.

    I'm late, but here's my experience:

    I ordered a non-PG sampler between 7.Nov-10.Nov. The order arrived on the 13th, when I was at a conference, so they sat in the box in my living room until the 16th, when I opened them and danced like Snoopy. All bottles are amber and have been stored in the lowest drawer of a wooden computer desk since then. My computer room, for whatever reason, is one of the warmer rooms in the house, though I dare say it wouldn't be much higher than what most would call "room temperature" (love old houses, hate old heating ducts). Originally, I was extracting liquid with the syringe, but I eventually just used the dropper. Every bottle is the same color as the day I got them and I've used each at least one time.

    I'm considering doing a little temperature test with one of the fuller bottles to see if I can *make* it turn green, though it seems like the lab results should be in soon. Perhaps everyone got part of one bad batch? I'd hate to think that JC is having any problems. I love the non-PG option

    Post Give Johnson Creek a Break

    So some batch's allegedy got messed up. (1) They are going to report on the problem once they get the lab results back, (2) they are refunding anyone that had a problem, (3) the problem affected a very very small percentage their product, (4) noone reported getting sick from the problem--Does anyone think China manufactures would be on it and make good if this happened to their e-liquid?? Do you think you could even get a hold of anyone in China to see what happened?? So I think we should give them a break here. I use their product all the time and have ten 30 ml bottles here with no problems so it appears to be an isolated incident. They are making good faith inquiry and they are responding. What else could we all ask for???????????

    Posted on another forum while this one was down:
    I returned my 2 sample packs last week because they turned green and received the replacements this week. I plan on using one pack and leaving one in my desk drawer to see what happens. It doesn't seem like there is anything different. They are using the clear bottles with the droppers. Never did get a REAL reason why it turned green other than it might have froze.

    Yeah, but you need virgins to harvest it, so it's prohibitively expensive in countries that do not allow child labor.

    OTOH troll-sweat is more common, easier to gather, and has a MONSTER throat hit! Tastes nasty, tho.

    11 days total now. Clear glass vials, dash of car. Has been as hot as 80F or so and cold as 10F during that time. At least a solid 7-8 days of bright sun (I park outside at work). No green, experiment over I'm vaping these puppies!

    I posted this a week or so ago over on Trog's site:

    **** Begin Post ****

    I have what I believe to be new info:

    I decanted some of my liquids into cobalt bottles I purchased on eBay for mixing flavors, etc. I used TW mint 36mg, PureSmoker "Pure" Mint 18mg, PureSmoker "Pure" 555 0mg, PureSmoker "Pure" Rum 18mg, PureSmoker "Pure" Cola 11mg, and VG (various mixes, etc).

    I made 5 different mixtures, and they have been sitting in my desk drawer out of sunlight at room temp for about a month. ALL OF THEM ARE NOW GREEN.

    The "source" bottles that I pulled from (stored identically) are still their normal color, so I feel confident that this is either bottle contamination (I never washed them before filling) or a reaction to the rubber stopper. I've now washed a new bottle and filled with the PS Mint, so we'll see how it fares.

    This still doesn't answer any safety concerns, so I pitched all the green stuff...

    FWIW, none of my JC non-PG bottles have turned.

    **** End Post ****

    After a week, the "washed" bottle is getting a slight green tinge as well. I did not use detergent, but rinsed it pretty thoroughly.

    My non-PG sampler sized Peach Cobbler is now looking a bit green as well. The rest of the sampler is still OK, but I will expect them to turn if they are from the same batch.

    I still vote bottle contamination, but I'm guesssing...
