I bought a joye 510 and some little bottles of flavor from cignot. Some of them say PG and one says VG. I bought some empty carts with 510.

I just want to make sure I can vape them as is or do you have to mix them with something? They are 26mg bottles of assorted flavors. Eight drops or so?
My blu just isnt cutting it. Seems like the first few pulls are good then it fades out.

Thanks

Hi, welcome to vaping! Maybe try doing more drops. When filling from empty, my carts take about 15 or so drops. Fill it up until it just starts to pool on the surface. I also use the Pyramid Tea Bag mod. (PTB) Look into doing that. It basically involves filling those empty carts with tea bag material. It works much better than the filling that comes with the carts. There's a ton of info on doing it on ECF, but if you're still lost PM me.

As for VG and PG. They are vegetable glycerin and the other is propylene glycol. They do the same thing, but have different properties. Again, lots of info, just do a search.

Best wishes,
Geoff- Still rockin' my Cignot 510...

PG vs VG is mostly personal preference. I think I am mildly allergic to PG, so I'm using mostly VG. VG is thicker and seems to produce more vapor. Try a sample and compare the two.


I noticed that too, PG seems fine at the time, but later I feel like I have a sore throat or like drank coffee that was too hot..
got a bottle of 99.5% VG and tried it totally fixed the issue.
Now I'm finding personally about 30%PG to 70% VG is good solid "hit" nice flav, and no sore throat:) Hope this helps!
