do you only prime your coils when you put new ones in? Or every time you fill. I'm on 18 ohms and it seems like it's so hard to hit sometimes. So do I need higher ohms? Also it tastes like popcorn. Diceytl? Lol just kidding but it does taste like popcorn

1: prime a new coil to make sure the wick is not dry.
2: you must mean 18 watts, not 18 ohms.

I don't go that low with the ohms, but if you do, better make sure your coil has plenty of liquid or you might get that burntish flavor. What equipment are you vaping with?
What do you mean when you say your .18Ω coil is "so hard to hit"?
- Does it taste burnt? If so, lower your wattage.
- Is it a kanthal coil?
You say your eliquid tastes like popcorn. What flavor is it supposed to be? For myself, I have found that cream/custard/certain bakery flavors need at least 2 weeks steep time before they come into their own. You may just need to steep that particular flavor for a bit.
Don't forget to shake the eliquid bottle before filling or topping off your tank.

0.18? That sounds like the 0.15 Nickel head reading a touch high.
Are you using it in Ni TC mode? It's important.
Those, and all similar, vertical cotton blanketed coil heads, do need a bit of extra priming.
Lots of wicking in there to get saturated.
It's done before the first use... and maybe, if you wash the head out to clean it.
That's not the norm, but it will remove the PG/VG, so you would prime it again.
