I'm new to vaping, I'm going to try to DIY some juice, witch one produces more vapor?? PG or VG??
I have a 901 if that makes a differnce.

Thanks all.............

Dave--VG produces more vaporer but also tries a little to overpower the flavor you use compared to PG. Also PG does not need to be thinned out like VG. It all comes down to preferance.

VG produces more vapor, but to me it tends to linger too long in the air which makes it look like I'm smoking to others. To me, VG also has a weird aftertaste.

I am thinking about cutting all my stuff with some VG. Does anyone know of a good Vendor for some VG. Also can you just mix the PG and VG all you want or is it not a good idea. Thanks.

Mix all you want. I use mostly 4:1 PG to VG. See other post for good source.

go to walmart and in the skincare aisle buy a bottle of humco glycerine. i know it seems weird but you can look on the threads and check but alot of us are using it. i personally cut my PG flavors 50/50 and i make my own with unflavored PG that i mix with regular flavors that they sell at any grocery store. i use mint, rum and root beer to name a few. and the main ingredient in them is PG! i dont mind the VG puttin the flavor down cuz i still get enough and i love the MAD, i say again MAD vapor i get by cuttin with VG!!!

those are just some tips and i end up streching my liquids longer that way too!
