I've been watching videos about how to cut the e-juice that we buy. I understand there's an actual formula of PG or VG, water, flavor and nic if required. Can I simply add a dab or two of Vegetable Glycerin to the cartridge filler or does it have to be properly mixed, and if I do that I don't have the water content!?

You could do that but it wouldn't be precise. If that doesn't matter then go for it. You could always just wash out a used bottle and mix it in that. Keep in mind that you'll not only cut the nic content, but the flavor too. I've vaped straight VG before just to see how it is. It doesn't have much throat hit but it does produce vapor.
I don't think VG i.e. USP glycerin would mix very well in a cart. VG is very thick. You can buy little 3ml bottles at many ejuice suppliers cheap - you could use those if you want to experiment. Of you could try putting a bit of VG in the cart - won't hurt anything. Of course anything unflavored you add to your ejuice will effectively lower the nicotine and flavor of your juice.
I use VG to cut it down slightly and nothing else! I usually just start with 10% vg and test it in a very small batch! If you cut it to much you will dilute the flavor! Better to test a small batch and not waste it! If thats works try 20% next time till it's what your looking for! Also the Vg as little as 10% will make a very noticable difference in heavier thicker vapor! Good Luck!
Any VG you add will cut the mg down and no you don't have to use water!
If you have an empty ejuice bottle you can test small batches in that! You could try dropping some in a cart and it won't hurt anything but you wont get an accurate taste as it needs to mix together!

I have added just a drop of VG to the cart now and then, just to tone down a TH that was too strong,, or get a bit more vapor..But as others have said it can effect mg and flavor at the same time. It is fun to play with different combos. But do it in very small amounts to see what works, and what doen't.
You don't need water. Just play around with it....just do it in small batches. I'd mix it in something besides the cart...it won't blend very well in the cart. You won't hurt anything by playing around with it.
