It depends on the actual flavor as to how much I use... Some of them are really strong while some are not so much and you can barely taste it unless you add more...

The flavorings are PG-based so it adds to the vapor as well..

Hope that helps!

Thanks Rita, you made me realize I have been throwing away something very useful. Any of you ladies who are on the Wiley Protocol, the syringes we use for our P &E can be used to mix these things with, they are almost identical! anyway, I just bought 10 bottles of 36 mg. unflavored nic juice from Johnson Creek. Obviously I need to add flavor. This is my first post in DIY lquid, so if anybody seees this and knows a good place to point me for mixes with no flavor to start with, that would be great. I may stumble across some as I read. Thanks.

Please Help.. Brand New User in need of Help, Advice and Expertise.

please feel free to post to the forum or to me privately as to not tie up the forum. thanks in advance to everyone.

dear smokey jo & anyone else reading this post.

i am brand new to the forum and i just placed my first order for a strater kit and a fairly large order for 36 mg e-liquid bottles from eastmall. my order should be arriving later this week.

this is also my first time writing to the forum. i'm not exactly sure of the best way to use the forum, and i couldn't find a thread that addresses us 'newcomers'. so i'll start the best way i can. here are my questions and/or requests.

1. i read here that some users dilute their e-liquid with glycerin. do you know which is the correct glycerin product used for dilution. i have seen laxative type glycerin in suppository form (i'm sure that's not it), and i found 4 oz bottle labeled as "glycerin - USP Emollient - For external use only", which seems to be for dry skin. it has a warning that it should not be ingested, so i assume this is also not correct. and is what i read even a wise thing to do?

i have read some of the other threads titles that i'm sure will help in other ways, which i will start educating myself promptly. is there anywhere on the forum that is specifically geared toward the brand new user? is there a booklet or starters advice document that can be printed. I guess i just want to hit the ground running as soon as everthing arrives so i don't have to suck on these poison sticks a minute longer than necessary, while i have to get up to speed.

i'm not even sure which button i click to get this message out there. 'quick reply' or 'go advanced'. oh well here goes.

thanks for your time. spritesdebt

The PG is propylene glycol which is a common ingredient of almost all e-liquids.

So I'm curious.
Has anyone cut with half PG and half VG?
So instead of a 50/50 mix it would be a 50/25/25 mix.
No real reason in asking, just curious.
