3mg/ml 50/50 liquid is fine to vape as is. How much flavor to add depends on which flavors you are using. Some need more concentrate than others, some need to steep and some are ready to vape right away. The amount of flavor concentrate to add varies anywhere from 1% all the way up to 20% or more. Just remember that when you add flavor the nicotine will become more diluted and wont be 3mg/ml anymore.

It does matter which brand of concentrate it is. For example TFA mango might be delicious at 10% with no steeping while CAP mango might work better at 4% with a week or 2 of steeping.

Might be an idea to check out the DIY subforum and take a look for some of the flavors you intend to use. See what other people do with them and that should give you an idea for a starting point.

Hi. I am about to make my first e-liquid and got a little confused when it comes to mixing it together. So I have a question regarding about Nikotin Base that have 50%PG, 50%VG , 3 MG (Pink Mule: Green Label VPG). So is this already ready to smoke? And how much falvor do I need to add or is this completely my decision?

Thanks in advance.
What you need is an eJuice calculator.

I used eJuice me up when i used nicotine.

All makers have their own ideas about any given flavour.
All vapers have their own ideas about any given flavour too.
Mixn'match is the name of the game :)

Flavour x from maker y may appeal to some, while flavour x from maker z will suit other vapers.

Finding your own favourites is - IMO - part of the fascination of vaping.

No pre-done take-it-or-leave-it, all done to the taste that matters : yours :)

Welcome and glad you joined. I think you know now (understand) what nic strength you purchased. If you intend to vape only 50/50, 3mg., that's as strong a nic mixture that you will ever get without adding more nic. If you plan to vape nic lower than 3mg, this can be done, but you are very nic limited. If you plan to mix flavors and end up with 3mg, you could opt to purchase 100mg. nic in either 100%VG or PG (and save the 3mg for lower nic mg. vaping). Some folks, like myself, purchase 100mg/VG.
I used :
