Is there a general ratio for flavor to pg? I'm trying to figure out how much flavoring to buy. I've checked the diy liquid section and the only ratios I can seem to find are the Pg/Vg to desired mg strength.

Usually 10-20% is good enough. I usually start out with 10, then if I find I need more flavor, add more. Mixing is fun and a learning experience. Before you know if, you'll be mixing all kinds of crazy vapes 
Some need more, some need less. I started out at 20-30%, but now I like 5-10%. I use Scubabatdans ejuice calculator spreadsheet and a graduate syringe, so dispensing exact volumes is a snap, and the syringe acts as a mixing vessel for small amounts while you are trying a new flavor recipe. BTW, mint oils like pepermint and menthol generally need only a drop or two for a 6 mL batch, as they are very strong. Made a 10% peppermint once, and it about blew my head off...sort of like altoids to the fifth power! 8-o
It depends on the brand and the flavor and your tastes! I will normally search the forum and see if people have recommendations for the particular flavor I'm trying to use... and then I start with less flavor than they recommend, mix, taste, adjust, and repeat until I find what I like.
Scubabatdan's calculator is fantastic! You can find the link to his newest version at the bottom of his signature.
