Second question....I have researched and hope I have this right. Ingredients in e-juice...PG,VG and nicotine, flavoring? Does the ratio of the PG and VG matter? Is the PG safe? I know this sounds silly cause, there are a lot of things not safe in things but are still consumed...but is it relatively safe. Is it best to have the VG ratio higher or not? Thanks again for all the help. Will post again later...

Flavoring usually about 10%
PG enhances flavor, TH and lung hit- water like
VG= vapor and can mute flavor, TH- thick
Nicotine- TH, lung hit and our need for nicotine. The MOST important ingredient in regards to TH and lung hit.
Standards in the industry are 80/ 20 or 70/ 30 PG/ VG. I vape 70/ 30 PG/ VG.
All the ingredients are/ should be USP/ food grade. Be careful though because some juices contain diethyl. Just do your due diligence and be wary of non ECF listed vendors.

I started out with 100% vg + nic + flavoring because I read here on ECF that some folks have bad reactions to pg. I didn't know if I would be one of those folks. That worked for me. No bad reactions.
Now I have tried some juices with some pg in them & right now I've got some acne... yuck. Don't know if it's pg or just a bad day. Just my experience.
