I use the Now brand and have been for about 6 months and it works great no problems you can buy 16 oz for about 5-6 $ online a little more $ at a health food store.

you can look through all the recipes and replace the alcohol with vg, pg, or water.. the alcohol is just there to thin out the mix and give a stronger TH
and both above are good.. top one is the PG lower one is VG

I get the Humco brand of VG at Walmart. I think it is in skin care section.

Isn't HealthyNest Glycerine one of those that advertises on the bottle, "100% Pure"?
It's probably great glycerine, but even the finest grade chemical lab glycerine isn't 100% pure. That kind of claim turns me off.

My drug-store glycerin is 99.5% pure, with the remaining 0.5% being water. Can't get much purer than that, especially for only a couple bucks per bottle... been using my CVS-bought VG for a few months now, with spectacular results.

I jsut started using the Humco glycerin from wal mart. It's like $3.85 for 6 ounces. I haven't had any problems with it at all. Works great I jsut thin it out with distilled water.

I agree, I'm pretty picky about how the word pure it thrown arround. I ended up picking up some Proctor and Gamble Superol V (veg) rated at 99.7% pure (.3% water). I vape the stuff straight.
I picked up a gallon, so if you can't find it localy and want to try it PM me.
The Health Nest stuff is probably just fine, but I had someone telling me it was 100% pure. I pretty much consider this impossible, so I'm a bit biased.
Watkins--- I stay away from it, for some reason it has an industrial "feel" to me.
Humco says all the right things on the lable, but has a "baby care" product look to me, and as I mentioned, wasn't available localy.
I've very happy with my P&G Superol V, not the cheapest solution, but I have enough to keep me in VG for life and still share a little with my forum friends. LOL
