just bought some juice online it's suppose to be a Mango/blueberry flavor so fruity blend

i literally BARELY taste anything, it clouds well (80VG/20PG) but literally taste nearly nothing....

the juices born date was on 2/17/2016 it's now 3/11/2016 i'm going to consider that time it was steeping so nearly one month of steeping and a fruity flavor isn't flavorful?

advice on what i should do? i'm currently just telling it sit in my closest now...but idk what to do with it...i was reading other threads/reddit that if a juice especially a fruity flavor which should be good as soon as it's made isn't good after nearly a month you should either dump it or just vape for clouds...

You will not taste the juice with this set up...
Try a 50/50pg blend for the top box
Or 60/40pg
Higher vg juice needs more heat to cook the juice and turn it to flavor
80/20pg are what they call DRIPPER JUICE...
Tank juice are
50/50/pg
60/40pg
Or higher pg...
Goodluck

i mean the juice has hundreds of great reviews both on their site and on reddit... and their site reviews seem pretty legit since they have people cursing at how some flavors suck ... ect(this not one of them)
It's a DRIPPERS juice bro...
VAPING is subjective
Good for them bad for you
Don't rely on reviews you have to find it urself

Generally speaking, you are going to get more flavor from juices that have a higher ratio of pg. I've found fruit juices are less likely to need steeping, but it is very rare to find any juice that doesn't benefit from steeping. The steeping process can be hurried along a bit by exposing the juice to air and shaking it vigorously once or more every day. I don't think juice can really steep without the exposure to fresh air. If I am steeping juice in a plastic bottle, I take the lid off and squeeze the bottle, to push old air out and allow new air in. Then I recap it and shake it pretty hard, before putting it away. If I am steeping juice in a glass bottle, I shake it, then take the lid off and leave it off for a bit, before putting the cap back on and shaking it vigorously again. If you do that once or twice a day, your juice will steep nicely. Most of the time, but not always, your juice will darken in color as it steeps.

Why don't you try a different juice vendor and a higher pg ratio? Another suggestion would be to order juice that offers extra flavor shots. One vendor that I have recently ordered from for the first time that has plenty of flavor for me is Good Life Vapor. They don't offer extra flavor shots, but they are pretty flavorful on their own. You can also choose ratios of pg/vg.

I can't comment on your vape gear because all I use are iSticks and Nautilus Minis.

Hope this helps and hope you find a juice that you love very soon.
