Ok when I first tried DIY I didn't even know this site existed if that tells you of my noob level lol.

I ended up making two 120 ml bottles one was good though I have since learned how to make it so much better
The other was just a fail but I wonder if it's fixable.

The first two I made were single flavor vapes.
Both were made the same way save for the flavor.
25% of 36mg nic
50% vg
25% of apple/ry4 from TFA
The apple was great but the RY4 was terrible however I'm wondering if I can save it or if I should just give up on it and try again.

Discribe exactly what's wrong with it. We may be able to help.

My first observation is you used to much RY4 flavoring. Try it at 5 - 7%

So take 20% of the ry4 mix and add 80% base to dilute it. Steep it a week or more and go from there.

When working with new flavor mixes you should be working with small 5ml test batches so theres little waste. Write it all down so when you do come up with a good mix you can duplicate it.

Get yourself a lot of small empty 5ml bottles.

Then

Read my blogs

then read hoosier's blogs.

then read the stickies at the top of the page.

this will explain a lot of the how's and why's.
