Alternative Cart Material 100% Hemp Cord
I was thinking about s product that would be easier than tea bag paper and non toxic when burnt. One of the reasons tea bags were chosen over paper is that they are in part hemp.
My thought is to braid this material and insert in the cart. It should wick fine and be really easy to use.
I would stay away from anything that is dyed however.
It will be a while before I can give this a shot but here is a link to what I found with a quick google search.
Your thoughts please...

I often wonder why people think that there is a better cart material...I am inclined to think that the R&D deprtments of the manufacturers spent alot of time and money to have the product we have today.
Thats my 2mg worth.

Poly fill is a plastic and this eventually makes contact with the hot dry atty resulting in burning plastic. Tastes like crap and melting on the atty can not be good for it. Keep in mind that this is a Chinese product. While industrious, they dont seem to be all that concerned with using the best available materials to get the job done. Lead paint for example.

X2 on the burnt plastic. That cannot be good for you. I switched during the first week, much better now.
BTW, the hemp wick sounds like a great idea. Thanks, off to the craft store.

that sounds interesting vandal....for me it was because I kept getting the melted plastic taste and I have actually seen bits of polyester stuck to my atomizer heating coil and I sure don't want any chance of vaping plastic!..the tea bag seemed to work reasonably well but it sure isn't perfect ....hemp braid sounds well worth a try......keep us informed if you do try it!

I tried the hemp it's not bad at 1st it was great but then after a few hrs of vaping it gets boged down with fluid - I still have it in and am expermenting but if you do try I make sure that you boil the hemp wick 1st a few times because a lot of the hemp factories put a wax on the hemp to help the fibres stay together

I got some plastic in one of my atomizers the other day and it about ruined it. I cant seem to get the bad taste out of it.

Only problem that I see is that the hemp might take up valuable liquid room. maybe fluff it up a bunch...... OHHHHHHHHH be careful a small % of hemp cords are treated with some sort of crud.
