Help
Just got these tonight.
I ordered 5-she kindly sent 7!! She was also kind enough to make mine naked. I do not want glitter, buttons or beads in my wax.
Some smell great right away, some a bit weak and a couple smell a touch of clam plastic.
I KNOW these must be cured. I have read that a few places here. How long have you found best?
It is not like I have nothing to melt these days while I wait...haha!
Thanks!!

Two to four weeks for me. 
Plastic scents you say? Yuck....I haven't smelled that in my TBG before. P.U.

To be safe and give them the very best and most fair assessment, I will wait a month.
Thanks so much!

You are quite welcome and good luck with that waiting...I am not very good at waiting!

I have a lot of wax right now and I remembered (because I am trying to forget it) that I have some dental surgery a few days before Memorial Day weekend. My treat to myself will be busting these out and melting while I am resting afterwards.

I actually got great throw from most of my TBG with less than a week's curing. It will be interesting to see if they are even stronger now that I've had them for almost a month!
My TBG Calabrian Bergamot & Violet is one of the strongest tarts I've ever had.
I guess I will have to wait for a while for your reviews:)

Well, it would not hurt to try one little cube in a week. You know, I could do it just as a test...not because I could not wait! haha!

My Experience:
A year or so ago I bought about ten clam shells from TBG. I tried two or three as soon as I received them and felt there wasn't much throw, so I put them aside.
Three or four months later, I was low on wax and brought them out again. I couldn't believe how strong the throw was for every single fragrance. So obviously, they got stronger as they cured but I have no idea within those few months how long it took.
I have since ordered more about 6 wks ago and they are curing now. I'm in no hurry.
