online recipes from other people is very touch and go.. I simply use them for inspiration and ideas.
You should do single flavours first at around 10%, give them about a week to "steep" then try them, this will give you a better idea about the flavours. So if you need more or less and so on.
Then, with a RDA, you can test these out, then do a few drops of various flavours and see what does work together for you.
Note that some flavours and blends may take a few weeks, some even a month or more. This depends on your mixing technique.
And some flavours can cancel each other out, don't work as intended, and from one brand or even versions of flavouring, the difference can be fairly large.
Note that your source of nicotine can be another thing.. bad nicotine can affect the flavour and "hit" quite a lot.

£40 per week? Wow... that's grim.
Most % averages used on the e-liquid recipes site are just guides really and should not be taken at face value.
Some concentrates (posh ones, pre-made like Chef's and/or DIY or DIE from Chef's) are quite accurate.
What have you bought? The make and the shop, ideally.
I know of some vendors that water down certain concentrates. I've suspected this in the past to be honest.

Flavors will not taste like the real deal,,though may taste nice in their own right.
Make single flavor test batches in 5ml. Start low in flavor percentages (5%). Taste,allow to age a few days.
At this point you may add batches together/ increasing one or the other flavor as needed..

Just a word of caution too. Remember when using concentrated nicotine to make sure you make accurate measurements and be careful when handling it. Highly concentrated nicotine can be harmful if not used correctly.
Good luck with your DIY.
Edit:
Sorry didn't notice what you had was already premixed to 6mg. Is still good advice though if you ever decide to buy stronger say 100mg.

Thanks guys maybe the fact i bought cheap flavour totally wicked gold standard I've just ordered some tfa flavours to try some recipes I've found online with 20 plus good reviews will try them when they arrive and give an update I figure if I can find 2 or 3 all day vapes I can make will save me a huge amount of money( thanks again!!
yes i use a 30ml bottle in 3 days maximum :/ but works out a little bit cheaper than smoking and hopefully is a little healthier lol
QED. Nothing more to say. Not cheap (expensive) and not good (weak)....
What else would you expect?
(grrrr)
Welcome and glad you joined. Regarding ADV. Could tell us what flavors you like in general categories (Bakery, desert, tobaccos,drinks etc.. . Fruits do not do it for me. one of my favorites is:
