I would like to add this to quart sized mason jars with water and floating candles for a function being held in a pastrue. How much should be used?

This is only a 1% dilution so I think you will be better off burning the citronella candle. You are very welcome.

I make bug spray w/it. I only put in 6-7 drops in a pint size. NOT the whole bottle.

I have never canned anything, so I don't know. If you take 50% of 10 quarts (20 pints) you have 10 pints, and allowing extra room for the jars would suggest 6 to 8 pints. That should leave adequate empty space for the pressure to build and the canning process to be successful. Perhaps someone else could give a better answer.

I just dip the back of my thumb nail into the jar .. I would guess 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon.. I don't think it needs to be an exact measure.

I just poured some water into the buckets and there were no leaks, I would say go ahead and continue with your plan to turn them into candles.

I placed quart canning jars, a mix of brands , into the pot and put 7 in with a little room between them; BUT I would not use 7 because the boiling water won't have enough room to circulate properly around the jars.

I found a conversion chart that says 12 tsp per ounce. So there should be about 30. That seems about right based on the size of the jar.

The jar doesn't list amount, but I would take a guess at 4 to 6 oz. I have seen smaller jars offered from other sellers. Wish I could be more help.

One gallon should do it! You can have an extra quart on hand just in case. My event (SummerFest for Nursing Home) was 3 hours long and I used 1 gallon, though, when I noticed it ran out, I'm not sure if it had been empty 5 min. or 20 min. as I was busy. On 2nd thought, I just realized I still have some left in that gallon jug. Hope this helps!

I used this wick for pure beeswax candles poured into 4oz quilted mason jars (http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=4418846&KPID=957278&kpid=957278&pla=pla_957278). They burn just fine. Just make sure that they are secured upright in place while the candle cools a bit, otherwise the wick flops over.

I put a half-gallon wide mouth mason jar in mine and had about 1/2 inch to spare to the rim of the pot. It seems like they might have designed it for this. You will want some sort of spacer (<1/2 inch) at the bottom so the jars don't crack from the heat. I would advise against submerging jars or adding water during the canning process (as one reviewer said).

I don't think so. I tried placing a small battery candle (the ones for party centerpieces) and it wouldn't fit through the mouth of the jar and its a little shorter that that battery candles. Sorry, u may need a larger jar :(

For my emergency candles i chose the medium wicks. I use half pint wide mouth jars which are 8 ounces. I use unscented soy wax which should burn 40 to50 hours. For a pint jar i think either would be ok, but I would probably use a medium. A large wick could burn too fast and just use your candle up quicker.

Hello MotherofAnAngel, I use these wicks in my soy candles in 6oz-8oz mason jars and they are perfect ... I get a nice even burn and it's the best one I have found so far. I use Eco-Soya CB Xcel - soy wax. Hope this helps!

i would research online. I think you can add it to water and use it in a spray bottle, but I don't know for sure and you'd want to research the ratios!

I used 2 tablespoons for each bucket of water that I made and soil drenched several buckets around a large tree I have in my front yard. To be sure read the directions that comes with the product for the particular item you are using the product for. Also I believe there is a 800 number you can call in the instructions or on the container. I hope this helps.

I did, be sure you use the side for smaller jars, i.e. one side for quart size, other for pint and smaller jars. Hope this helps.

I always order bigger than what I need I never know what I'll be creating. However, if you wanted 2 quarts I suppose you should have ordered 3 to allow for evaporation or other things you can adjust.
