if i found the carts i bought being a first time vaper have too much nicotine for me could i buy a bottle of glycerin and dilute it even though the juice was probably made with pg?
Just remember that you sould dilute the VG with some vodka or destilate water,but if are going to drop it inside the cars 2 drops would be enough

Walmart Humco works for me.

No walmart? Try a local Cake shop. They usually state "96 USP GRADE" on the side. I was using these, but I didn't know what the 96 meant, possible %age?

I thought it was the Cake Shop Glycerin causing me to be dizzy, but it was the level of nic.

I thought of going back and trying the HUGE jug (8oz) of it sitting in my cupboard, but I haven't run out of the first of the two I bought from WalMart yet, and it's been months!

Side note:
If you go to the Cake Shop and see LorAnn flavorings, be sure to get a (eye?) dropper. You can use the dropper to suck the prefilled cart juice out (stick it on the side of the polly filler and plunge), put that in a container and then mix it all at the same time. Refill them the same way until you have other options available. Fluff the filling back up to the top after the fill.

yes, that is exactly what you do, add vg for more vapor, add pg for a harder throat hit

VG = veggie glycerin? So if I found some in the supermarket, I could just add a few drops to make more vapor?

Does VG come in different formulas, or percentages or anything that I need to be aware of?

I think that as long as it's food grade, it's standard. I bought mine a year ago from the health food store. I use it for herbal cough syrup for children. It's very mild stuff and it's commonly used in foods, children's medicines and cosmetics.

I've been adding a couple of drops to my carts and it does a nice job of increasing the vapor without jeopardizing the throat hit - as long as I don't add too much.
