Anyone running GLOW with subq split vs single site?

Curious how people are pinning GLOW. I keep reading the typical dose as GHK-Cu 200mcg + BPC-157 500mcg + TB-500 2.5mg, but TB-500 is the awkward one because of the volume if you're mixing in one syringe. Reconstitution math on TB-500 vials usually means a fair bit of bac water to get a workable concentration, and stacking all three in a single pin gets uncomfortable fast tbh.
For those running it subq, are you splitting the injection across two sites, or doing them separately at different times of day? I was thinking GHK-Cu and BPC-157 together in the morning since both are daily per the profile, then TB-500 on its own a couple hours later on the 2-3x/week days. That way the TB pin isn't fighting the others for absorption.
Also, does the 2h half-life on GHK-Cu and 4h on BPC-157 matter much for timing if I'm doing them separately? I get that TB-500 at ~6h has more cushion, but the short ones feel like I shouldn't be spreading them too far apart. Would love to hear what actually worked for people rather than just theory.

- kim609: For what it is worth, i run something similar but i split it the other way. Ghk-cu and bpc-157 first thing in the morning, same site, both daily. Then tb-500 on its own later on the two pin days. Volume was the main reason for me too, that 2.5mg vial just does not play nice when you add bac water for the others. On the half-life question, im not sure it matters all that much for subq pinning of these. Absorption from the tissue is slower than iv so you already get a bit of a depot effect, and i
- jake_hrv: Yeah pretty much the same setup, just confirming the volume issue. Depot effect from subq is what i was kinda hoping was happening tbh. What concentration are you running TB-500 at? 5mg dose gets fiddly.
- dad_marcus: Tb-500 on its own later makes sense tbh, same conclusion i came to after a few weeks of trying. Depot effect from subq is the part people miss i reckon, especially with tb-500. Good on ya for keeping it simple, no point overthinking the timing?
- jake_hrv: Yeah depot is a good way to put it, that tracks with what i was noticing too tbh. Did you end up pinning tb anywhere specific or just rotating? I was thinking near the injury site but not sure if thats bro-science or actually backed by something. Also curious how long you ran it before calling it on the split timing.
