I have 250ml of 48mg nictotine in a vg base.
I have 500 ml of pg with no nic.

What do i need to do/buy to get a 18 mg nicotine base at aproximate 70/30 or 75/25 some where near there.

I need to order soon as i have nothing to vape with 18 im prolly vaping 10mg
I am going thru some serious nicotine withdraws. Trying not to smoke cigs. Ive been vaping since september.
Its bad in The morning and late at night. I notice i smoke more when i vape my diy.
Im getting headaches bad, irritable, kinda snappy. The headaches arent going away with motrin, popping them like candy.

I dont want to throw in the towel. Maybe i cant figure it out cuz im nic fitting lol.

Take a deep breath! Don't throw in the towel just yet..

I'd first go to a local B&M and get some 18mg juice you can vape. You need a clear head when mixing!
I can't imagine mixing as you do. If it were me, I'd mix in much smaller batches.

Say start with 10ml
I don't know how much flavoring you are using either, that will change things as well so I'm just guessing 10%.

Nic.- 3.75ml
PG- 5.2 ml
VG- .05ml
Flavor- 1ml

This will give you 18mg juice with a 62/38 ratio. You need to also have VG (without nic) to mix at the ratio you want.
I hope this helps.

Ok baby steps lol.
Thanks.
I dont usually mix this way. It usually seems pretty easy.
The plan was 48 mg of my nic base in vg in 250 and the. 500 ml of pg zero nice.
But that would only give me 16mg right?

The last time i ordered i bought 250ml of vg and 500 ml pg both in 12 mg not thinking when i added flavor that would dilute my nic even more.
So im vaping like a mad woman and not getting nicotine satisfied.

So now im vaping some 12 from a vendor but ive gone thru about 10 ml in 24 hours.

If you are having nic withdrawl and need to do something temperary until you order your supplies you can make a 50/50/18mg mix

for example based on a 10ml sample batch with 20% flavor

3.75ml VG Nic solution (37.5%)
3ml PG (30%)
1.25 vg (12.5%)
2ml PG flavor (20%)
result is a mix at 50/50/18mg

If you use less flavoring your NIC mg will go up so you should be fine with that until you get the supplies you need. For instance if you use 10% flavoring your nic will be 20mg.

This will at least take care your your NIC craving.

If it's to thick and don't wick correctly (Which it should) you can add a few drops of distilled water to thin it and not effect the nic mg drastically.
