These are super concentrated flavors and are different from any others I have tried. If you mix too much it just tastes like it's too strong rather than having to find the right percentage to even produce a flavor that's good. It's more like "oops, I added too much sugar and now it's too sweet" and not "holy crap why does this taste like grass now"
I only have two flavors to go by. One gives me a weird, reaction and one does not. It's definitely real and independent of vg/pg and nic BUT goes away the moment I switch to something else. I won't know more until I order more and I have an eye on quite a few.

Thanks for keeping us posted Charlz--- hope its only that one flavor. We too know its not PG VG or nic but a new DIYer might not yet know what the offender might be. Some people have problems with VG above a certain percentage--raises hand. All things must be considered in regards to a reaction of any sort.

The percent of vapers having problems seems to be very small with these flavors. Seems like more vapers have problems with pg and you will see lots of high vg users in this thread.

Narrow it down... are you using a new bottle of pg...vg...or nic? Or have they been used before?

What percents did you use for your mix... pg..vg..nic... and flavor
This is what I did I hope it helps. I had 240 mills of Good Prophets 36mg unflavored nic juice VG I dumped half in a 8 ounce clean amber bottle and I filled both bottles back up with NOW VG. After that I dripped 42 drops in each of the ten 1 ounce bottles and filled the bottles with the unflavored nic VG. I let it steep for 24 hours with the caps off all ten bottles, put the caps back on and grabbed the Cherry. I have also been vaping more. Now in my tank I have also added straight VG in it to cut the nic level in my tank.

So this is a new bottle of nic also? Yes keep cutting it down. I would even take 5ml of your mix put it in a 10ml and add 5 ml of plain vg. May end up being too weak but its a start

1 ounce equals 30 ml so 42 drops of flavoring which is about 3% might be too much for you--dial it back to 2 or 2.5%and see if that helps. Have you always vaped all VG? If so with no problems--- then VG is a non issue. What strength juice have you vaped before? If 18 then the nic shouldn't be an issue. You will know you are overvaping nicotine by a splitting headache sometimes accompanied with other symptoms. What have your vaping habits been up to this point? Had any similar issues with premade juice?

Yes both bottles are brand new. I ordered from Good Prophets because of the VG being thin and the NOW VG I picked up at the health food store. I now have banana in my tank with the 30 mill cut in half. There is flavor not like the cherry. The banana is very muted. Very little throat hit, which I don't think I will mind so much as long as there is flavor.

For the most part all VG. I ordered some juice from tasty vapor once and loved it! Then I developed a cough so bad every time I tried to vape it sent me into a coughing fit. Went back to 100 all VG and was able to vape again. Now before I bought all the DIY stuff I was vaping 10/90 pg/vg at 24mg and was fine. As for the 18mg I was trying to cut back my nic level from 24 to 18 then 12 and finally 6. Thank you all for your help. I think I really messed up or something. Over vaped or over mixed.:?:

Probably not helpful, but it seems if I vape a lot on dual coils my throat gets messed up. Thought I'd throw that out, for what reason I have yet to come up with.

That happens to me if I vape a ton of anything unless I drink water pretty much constantly.

Oh Bamboo its hard not to over vape these--- that Cherry is very very good :D Sounds like you had it all figured out for yourself on what you tolerate before this-- maybe some of the flutters were from that initial dropping of the nicotine and the subsequent vaping more. That happened to me once and I went right back to 24 mg. until these flavors. These flavors allowed me to drop nic level for the first time. If you can still taste the cherry fine after further dilution in your tank then I'd maybe dial it back a little the next batch.

You all are wonderful, I can't thank you enough for helping me through this. It looks like I will still be able to vape these flavors and I am so grateful that I can. Thank you all!!:banana: As for the nic level wow no way am i going up in nic. I plan on either staying at 6mg or 0. You all are fantastic!

Shilo that is very interesting. I would of never thought to go back up in levels.

There's obviously a number of us hooked on this thread :p

I was vaping B&M but am back to Real Cig again (without Peach for now). I have somewhere around 3.5 dozen flavors just 4 of which are VZ. One of those 4 VZ flavors are what I've been vaping about 80+% of the time since I first mixed 'em.

What's everyone else vaping right now?

It's almost Thursday...can't wait to order more! :banana:

I sometimes have a sore throat as well not very often tho. I use to when i first started vaping.

I have some Newport also. I can not wait to try it. I have cartos and atty on its way.:vapor:

Enjoy. The NuPort, for me, as with all the new port clones I have tried (always premixed until recently), have been from way to way way way (yes, way way way) to heavy on the menthol for me. Couldn't be happier to make a new port vape, the way I remember it.

Hmmm...I just might try another menthol now. I had a few drops of one today and it was enough already. It's just all to easy to overdo menthol.

I never smoked Newports much but when I wanted something different I always bought Newports. I tried Marlboro menthol but it was nothing compared to Newports.:vapor:
