I tried searching the forums but there were too many hits. So please forgive me if this was asked before and/or send me to the right place where this was discussed before. I am thinking of buying DIY PG/VG and adding my own flavors made from herbs, fruits and essential oils. What kind of natural products could be added to the mix? Herbs/fruits can be delivered as an extract (alcohol or glycerine based), a concentrate or an oil and who knows what else. Can I just mix them with PG/VG solution? What about nicotine? Or should I add flavors to unflavored PG/VG that already contains the right amount of nicotine? I really don't want to inhale artificial flavors no matter how tasty they are :)
I found a supplier here (Drew/Nhale) that sells his own Lung juice that contains natural ingredient but I would love to make my own so that I can control the ingredients.

Thanks!

You will need to scour the DIY forum on here.
You cannot use any oil based anything! Not if you want your atomizers to ever work again. You can probaly get away with it for a time or two..but it will die.
The natural products with alcohol might be o.k...if you use gylcerin (USP or foodgrade) to thicken them up. If they are too thin, they will flood the atty and drip down into the battery and kill that too!
Anything with sugar natural or not will kill an addy. Remember fruit has sugar in it! Bits fruit or powder floating around in the product will stick to the atty and burn..not a good taste!
Before you get too caught up in making your own, please go to the DIY section. Soon you will be able to post threads in there and the experts will help you.
I am not being a buzzkill, just offering some tips. I understand you want to make this as healthy as possible, but after what we smoked for years..it may not hurt to stick to premade until you get all the best advice. E-Mail Drew. he is a very good guy!
I think I already said it to you..but worth saying again, Welcome!:)
