    Morning, mixers.

    A bit more rain overnight :) Not that I'll be putting the hoses away any time soon, but nice to give them (and me!) a rest!

    Good morning. My internal alarm clock has me up early.

    Yeah, dang clock. Been retired for many years, but still usually up before 6... but at least Stella the cat has stopped getting me up at 5 :)

    For the past few years I've been vaping at 40pg/60vg. I changed to 30pg/70vg and been having quite a bit of throat clearing(phlegm).
    I'm going back to 40pg/60vg, I'm a dtl (.6 ohm to .15 ohm)vaporer.
    Curious as to what ratio others mix at?
    Used 70VG / 30PG since I started mixing. It was widely recommended back then and I never tried anything else.

    I tend to mix at 30/70 and sometimes get a lot of phlegm if I sit and vape too long at once. I’ve thought about cutting back on the vg.

    I mix mostly using 70% VG.
    I guess I went with that because it matches most of the commercial liquids I've used.

    40pg/60vg. I do good at that ratio. I have a pg sensitivity but have worked my way down on vg over the years. Once I add flavoring I'm usually close to 50/50...any higher pg than that tends to give me issues.

    65 Pg for me. Anything more than about 35 VG and I have similar phlegm issues.

    I worry I might have to adjust how I do wicks if I change the ratio.

    Imo, not a concern. Wick like usual should work just fine, it's not that big a change on the viscosity.

    I got out earlier and mowed and put some more seed down. The wife went to pick up her brother from the hospital. They are going to stop here for a while before she takes him home. Its going to be awkward because I think he’s an idiot for not taking his meds and not taking care of himself.

    I'm developing a pain in my left foot, the same one that I had surgery on last year. The pain is the same type as my Achilles tendinitis but in a different location, just below my outer ankle. I've been doing some reading, and think it my be peroneal tendinitis. One cause is overuse, and I have been walking a lot. I only did 1.5 miles today and am going to keep it there for a while. Last thing I need is another long recovery due to foot surgery. Right now the pain is mild and intermittent, but that's how the Achilles tendinitis started, too. I don't want to stop walking altogether, but if the pain gets worse, I will.
