Ordered mine from amazon with prime. It arrived two days after ordering. I'm always hesitant to order from China... takes forever and sometimes things just don't show up

I lost my patience. And yes I know it's heavier than the math I posted. I went big on the actual mix

That's a heck of a plug! I only did 30g for the initial try. I figure if I don't like it, it's only about an ounce. No water or anything added. Hopefully it sticks together like yours did

I'm more of a throw caution to the wind guy lol. I like all of the components I put in it on their own so I'm sure I can at least tolerate this

Understandable. I like the blend style I'm trying. A VA forward VABurPer. Trying to get the proportions right for a permanent installation into the rotation. I have a good feeling about the current iteration but unsure if it's too heavy on the bright leaf
