You have the ingredients correct but you need to understand the proper amounts of flavoring to use, the amount of distilled water to use as in respects to the device you'll be vaping with. Flavoring usually has minimum to maximum percentage recommendations that you need to understand. It's best to start with the lowest recommended amount and work up. You need to know if a mix will need steeping and how long it will need to be steeped for. It's not always as simple as put in flavor, shake and vape.

I would recommend you do some reading first.

Read my blogs

then read hoosier's blogs.

then read the stickies at the top of the page.

this will explain a lot of the how's and why's.

I am sensitive to PG too. Unfortunately flavors are mostly PG, in general. I personally can tolerate up to about 10% flavor in a DIY juice, but not much more. These days I use 5% flavor or less, and usually much less.

My general VG juice recipe is %flavor + %water = 22%, give or take, depending on the final viscosity. So if I use 5% flavor, I use 17% water. The rest is VG and nic, but for you it would be just VG, if you are at 0 nic.
