Pumping newbie questions

Hey PE’ers.

I’m new to pumping, and my first few days have given me a bunch of questions I haven’t found answered on the forum. I would love to hear from some experienced pumpers.
My routine is 15-20 heated pumping per day, with about 30-40 jelqs afterwards. Been about a week.

How long does it take before you start packing a tube? After about 20 minutes, I’m barely scraping the sides of a 2.25 in tube with my base. Will it come after more sessions, or longer into a sessions?

After a session, I have no remaining gains to speak of. Even in the tube, my length doesn’t change at all, but once I’m out, all the girth instantly disappears. Am I doing it wrong? Or should I just be patient?

I have some very mild skin peeling. I also have phimosis. Is this just the result of skin stretching, or am I pushing too hard? I don’t have a gauge, so I go by feel, and never to pain.

Finally, after one session, my glans was quite wrinkly. I attributed this to it drying out under heat and vacuum. It hasn’t happened again, but I’m curious if you’ve had that happen to you.

Thank you.

It “sounds” like you are using too much vacuum. It’s why it’s imperative to get a set up with a gauge.

What are your measurements?

Titleist

BPEL= 16.5 cm/6.5 in
MSEG = 14 cm/5.5 in
BPFL = 13 cm/5.1 in
MSFG = 12.5 cm= 4.9 in

Thanks for the reply.

Each Dickinson different. I have never gained length in the cylinder; however, I normally pump for 20 minutes at 5 hg and almost always gain about an additional 1/4 inch of temporary girth for up to 2 hours.

Once I start a new cylinder, it usually takes up to six month to start packing it over half way and up to a year or more before I pack it over 3/4 and need to upgrade. However, once I start packing the cylinder up to 3/4, it takes about two to five minutes to work up to max packing once I start pumping.

2.25 is way to big for your MSEG. Even 2.0 is to big if you want to pack it but that will be your choice because 1.75 will be to small.
2.25 is 18 cm
2.0 is 16 cm
1.75 is 14 cm

I agree your cylinder is too big.

Cylinder is too big but…maybe consider doing jelqs before pumping , will be easier to pack that tube. GL.

Thanks for all the answers.
Having read here and other threads, I agree that I have been pushing it a bit far during sessions. I’ll go easier in the future.
Strange about the tube being too big. It was one of the smallest sizes available, and what Leluv recommended for my size.
Is packing truly necessary to begin length gains? I don’t have any real targets, and just seeing girth for now wouldn’t disappoint me either.

I’ll see how it goes. This is all an experiment for me right now.
Cheers.

As is said often in these forums: This is a marathon, not a sprint. Consistent routine seems to be a common theme as well.
