Can anybody help me in regards to cotton?

Which brand are they? Ive got the muji pads and the labo organic pads however not those ones (the packaging on yours looks different to the ones i have) id like to add them to my collection to compare

Im after the closest to the doc cotton stuff. Its organic very little black specks (husks) and doesnt have too much break in time. Off looks alone from what ive got the labo organic puffs seem closest however theres a few ive not tracked down to try yet. The ones i havnt got are the koh gen do and shiseido ones as i cant find them at a decent price

Just because the doc cotton one is white & the other has a yellow’y colour, doesnt mean the white one is “cleaner”. Actually i would guess that the yellow one would be the “cleaner” cotton, because pure white like that usually shows it has had some kind of treatment, like being bleached for example.
Personally i just use cheap cotton off ebay & cheap clapton wire on spools & they vape just as good as the most expensive/top of the range coils & cotton, see these wicking videos for a look at the cotton & coils i use -

Here i use muji in one vid & some cheap ÂŁ1 a bag vape cotton off ebay, similar to cotton bacon. Now i have tried a whole lot of different cottons including the over-priced mavaton-x & a couple other cotton man variations of mavaton & if im honest i dont really find a whole lot of difference between cottons in terms of vape quality, i mean every type of cotton requires slightly different wicking techniques to get them vaping just right but, once you have the right technique for that specific cotton, they all vape pretty much the same imo, some do last a little longer than others wick for wick though but, cotton is cotton is cotton,right? lol.

I have always used Muji cotton pad’s for years and then I tried Cotton Gods but more recently I have been using the BP Mods Pro Cotton especially in the 2.5mm variation because I find it fits both a 2.5 and a 3mm coil ID perfectly because it is so fluffy.
It comes in a tub with a screw on lid to keep it nice and fresh and I was surprised by just how much of it there is in there, it seems to go on forever. There are no seeds or knots and nothing to peel off or pick out. It is really easy to use as it takes the guesswork out of trying to judge how much to tear off so there is very little waste, just snip off a length that you need and thread it through your coil. This BP Cotton has very little to no break in time and has no taste, it’s also very absorbent and I’ve noticed that it doesn’t collapse over time like some cotton’s do so I find myself rewicking less often (depending on the type of juice I’m using of course). It is more expensive than some other cotton’s available but for me it’s worth the extra cost and also factor in that there is less waste as there is no guesswork involved with how much to use. I am very happy with this cotton and will be sticking with it from now on.

Im using a cotton similar to bp mods cotton in 2.5mm bundle, i forget the name now but it is ‘something’ mods (EDIT - Ambitions mods 2.5mm cotton), i also use the 2.5mm for 3mm coils. I use it in this video here - https://youtube.com/shorts/aSuqP0e0X2Y?si=tDZo1YWj9oSFHGqI.

I unroll/stretch mine apart & loosely roll it back up so its fluffy, the 2.5mm fits 3mm coils just perfectly🤌.

This girl that work at my shop, got me hooked on these, no lies compared to other brands like “CottBacon” it made the juices I use taste more fresh.

Very much like the Scottish Roll method that I have used in the past with Muji pads, it’s very efficient at wicking juice quickly. I enjoyed watching your videos by the way and although I had to slow the speed slightly to keep up with the writing (older eyes) I have subscribed to your channel.
