so i need to cut down the nicotine of my juices for my night time vapping. my equids range from 18 to 24 mg. i vape Virgin Vapor and Alice in Vapeland mostly. I haven't down DYI yet so I'm unfamiliar. do i just add vg or pg and should that dillute the nicotine? my options are limited because i can't get eliquid supplies here as most of the stuff i vape is ordered online. thanks in advance!

Just adding PG or VG will dilute the nic yes, but it will also dilute the flavor.

Your best bet is to buy the same flavor in a lower nic and mix the 2 together. Averaging math is your friend here. If you have a flavor in 24mg at 1ml, and you add 1ml of lets say 6mg. You now have 2ml of liquid. 24+6=30. 30/2 = 15. So you now have 2ml at 15mg.

Now if you have 2ml of 6mg and 1ml of 24, its 6+6+24=36. Then 36/3=12.

Make any sense?

Got some easier math for you, if you're mixing 0mg PG or VG.

Pick the concentration you want, let's say 10mg, and you're using your 24mg. Divide 10mg by 24mg to get the percent of the 24 you'll need.

10/24 = 0.42 aka 42% which we'll round to 40% to make it simple.

So use four drops of your 24mg to six drops of 0mg. (40% + 60% = 100%) Repeat or scale as necessary.

And yeah, to say you're flavor will be washed out is an understatement.
