First of all, I hope I am posting this in the right place as I normally don't start threads I just infect them.
Lots of wick materials out there and I have tried most of them.
But awhile back, I went on a quest to find the perfect organic wick material.
Very long story cut very short, I finally found Ramie Fiber also known as China Grass.
And here is where you can purchase it if you so desire.

$15 plus $&H gets you a full 8oz of the product which is one hell of a lot. Consider that organic cotton balls come in a large bag that weighs in at 0.16 oz for about $4.
I do boil and dry mine before using it.
It is easy to work with, kind of like cotton.
The funny thing is that it does not soak up and store liquid like cotton does.
It just wicks like crazy and has an amazing capillary action like nothing I have ever seen before and almost immediately transfers liquid from the grooves on the deck of my Kayfuns and Russians to the coil.
In many cases you can change out flavors by simply emptying the tank and replacing with a new flavor and in the space of a couple of tokes you are getting the new flavor 100%.
Obviously this will not work if your last flavor was cinnamon or something else that was really strong.
Also, it does not have any flavor of its own like hemp fiber and really delivers the flavor as well as the vapor if you are into cloud chasing. And it does not burn as it is heat resistant.
I have been using this exclusively for about 3 months now and I see no reason to use anything else!
IMHO, you should really give this stuff a try.

Thanks for the amazon link, I have to place an order, maybe I will pick some up as I can't think of anything else I could use.
