Read through the DIY forum Hanna. There's hundreds of no nic recipes and tips there.

Hanna welcome to the forum, you can buy zero nicotine juice & carts from any of the suppliers. No need to try making your own.

There's plenty of reason to try making your own. Especially if you only want 0 nic. Read my previous thread here:

Do you like money? Why everyone *should* DIY.

Wow, if I wanted zero nic then I have to agree with you Walrus. However, I need nic & the thought of trying to extract it myself was worrying but, I get the idea for 36mg juice, will be trying that one. Thanks.

I would risk making my own since I'm assuming there are no carcinigens in veg.
glycerol, distilled water, flavoring , and pure nic.

I am into learning how to make my own, however I am ordering pre-made until I have more experience. Can anyone help me? I bought some Nhaler Lung Juice. Its great. I am trying to determine if it is a PG VG blend or not.
Second, I bought samplers of VG based VermontVapers flavored, 20mgs. It taste ok, but I really want to "cut" it with a PG based nic juice. I cannot possibly do the math to properly "cut" it from scratch, with pure PG & then highly concentrated nic etc.. I am not there yet- too confusing.

So, I was thinking, just buy a Nic juice, 20 mg or higher, with a tobacco flavor that is PG based, and just "cut" each sampler in half with it in the small 3 ml bottles.

Sound right? I mean, I hate dripping cartridges from this bottle then that. Some say not to "taint" a whole new bottle, but this stuff is too thick and leaves a stench in the house. It needs PG clearly.

Can I just mix the little sampler bottle (VG based) with some new, PG based, pre-made E juice, say in a nice plain tobacco flavor? Im not too concerned about flavor as much as cutting this thick VG with some PG juice.

Does this make any sense to anyone? Suggestions ? The samplers are only 3 ml anyway. I won't use them alone, its too nasty. Flavor is fine, just smells afterwards.

Thanks

If you're going to start mixing and cutting you need to figure out the correct amounts to use. Thankfully for us, Scubabatdan came up with a simple to use juice calculator. You it can get the link from this thread:
Ejucie calculator (added quantity calculations)
