It's preference and yes I've read several do 100% VG. Should you? no one can answer that but you. As you're probably aware VG can subdue the flavor somewhat with less TH but provides more visible vapor which is why I think most get a combination of the two, trying to get the best of both worlds. You can overcome that somewhat since you do DIY by adding extra flavor to your mixes. Do what works for you.

I believe the concept of VG drowning out flavoring is overblown. It has a lower TH, increased vapor production, and adds a slight sweetness to some mixes.

The amount of flavoring you have to add is more a function of the flavor and your taste than it is VG.

I use 10-30% when I mix, but that is what I like. I would never suggest it is the only way to go.

My experience is that VG is smoother and slightly better vapor. PG has a very slight "chemical" taste and is thinner so it wicks better in my carts. 6 to one, half dozen to another IMHO.

Right now I'm have a few bottles of each and choose on flavor and nic content versus anything else. About the only variance on that is I'll probably cut the VG with some PG-based juice on carto fills to get better wicking.

I use 100% VG and for some juices 100% PG. I get a sore throat when I heavy vape with PG. I have noticed that with the same vendor and flavor, that the PG does have the stronger flavor.
Some of the delicacy of the flavor is lost. I'm thinking of adding a flavoring oil, to the VG to compensate for this. Luckily the vendor sells just the straight flavoring. This is the Honey Flue Cured from LiquidXpress. Fortunately I also have both the Cool Rush in PG and VG from them. No difference in taste there.
