Wicks are popular among smoking enthusiasts because they provide an alternative to using lighters and torches. This eliminates the chemical aspect of your smoking experience.
The best wicks are often hemp. Wicks are rolled tight and sometimes have an outer coating of wax, like beeswax for example. Wicks also burn at lower temps, allowing you to get a cooler hit from bongs, water pipes, and/or hand pipes. This is a top reason smokers prefer wicks.
Hemp wick is the most popular. Raw and Humboldt Farms brands have hemp wicks that are all organic. If you are planning to use a wick for your next session, consider using a hemp wick.
