Peaches and Cream wick users - how often do you change wicks?

I am using a Kanger Pro Tank 2 mini.... I bought 5 extra atomizers. (1.8 ohm atomizers)

As soon as I got them, I took 2 of them out and removed the silica wick. I replaced it with the Peaches And Cream cotton wick. (yes I boiled it several times) As I said, I only replaced 2 atomizers with Peaches and cream cotton wick.

This is my rotation so far: I fill up the Mini 2 tank and use a "fresh" peaches and cream cotton wick atomizer. When the tank is almost empty, I fill er' up again and keep trucking with the same atomizer. However, for whatever reason (maybe mental?) after I finish off the second tank, I will take the atomizer out, wash it under hot water thoroughly, and then set it aside to dry. Meanwhile, I grab the 2nd atomizer head I have with the peaches and cream cotton wick and use that for 2 tank fulls. When I'm done with my second tank, I take that atomizer head off, wash it under hot water, let it dry and grab the one I washed (and dried) from the day before and plug that one in and keep going.

This method has worked well for me so far, but I was curious for those of you who do a similar "rotation", how many times can you get away with just washing the cotton wick under hot water, letting it dry, and then repeating the process? Assuming the coils don't burn out, how often do YOU re-wick your T3mini heads with "fresh" cotton?

As a secondary question, the reason I switch the atomizer after 2 full tanks is because for whatever reason, it just feels like the wick is "gunking up" or doesn't quite draw right. It feels thick or something. Is that fairly normal?

As I said, I ordered a 5 pack of the 1.8 ohm atomizers but I have only opened 2 of them. The rest are still factory sealed.
I hope my post makes some sort of sense. BTW.....I am using a 50/50 blend of 555 from Mt Vapor Baker throughout this whole thread. I add 3 extra flavor shots and I'm lovin' it. So you can't really say "It depends on the ejuice and the pg/vg ratio, etc." I know that, but I just told you what I am vaping. It's that same consistent juice. What say you?
