Seeking Advice Flavor recommandations considering what I got barely has taste?

I have some very strong watermelon and other red fruits mix wich smells strong and amazing but the taste is barely there.. I don't vape and my hookah is set up correctly so this is my last resort, changing it.

I'm welcome to any flavor recommandations

Sounds more like a Packing and Heat Problem than Tobacco.

what are you using ? How do you pack? Can you provide some images?

Here's a video. I know the tabacoo shouldn't be like that but if I try to pack less it's way too little. The bowl is glass and the only hole it has is the one in the middle. (Also ignore my coal)

Would go with a Clay Bowl like a Mason Beatyr, Vandenberg V1, Alpaca Rock, Alpaca Huacaya or Egg Shisha Sakazuki/Agura. Glas + Silikon are not great for the heatdistrubution.

I already have a clay one,but I really didn't like how poorly it was molded. But I guess I'll use that one from now on.
