@Bronze I'm working on a Honduran Rhuberry. NET at your 8% again and 2 strawberries and 1 rhubarb at 1% each. Haven't worked out which fruits I'll be using yet.
This is where you folks have a big advantage over me. You've piddled with all these different fruits and fruit combinations over the years so you know what you like and know what works. And because of that, I say KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF!! I believe they will work perfectly fine with the Ligero and will serve to be another alternative in your rotations.

    The rhubarb was the first thing I thought of to use also. If you get a good recipe then please share.

    I went with INW Shisha Strawberry, TFA Strawberry Ripe and INW Rhubarb. Now I have 2 recipes with the Honduran Ligero. It's time to steep now so I can try what I've mixed before I do anymore. I took a tiny leap of faith and went with 15ml on both.

    I'll be sure to share if I them. I have another few mixes that are already steeped and I need to get to trying some of those. I am very curious about the NETs I mixed so I'm not likely to let them steep forever.

    I actually have a double-sided polish case that is loaded with as many fruits as I could cram in. Overflow is elsewhere. I do have a handful of fruits I've never mixed with such as WF Snake Fruit and FA Apricot....... When I get back to writing recipes I need to experiment with some of those.

    I've still got three more stixx Nets to try that are fully steeped. I just kind of got stuck on the butter rum.
    The only one I mixed solo when I got it was the Whiskey Cavendish and I haven't tried it. I also mixed my version of Goofy's juice with the Stixx A-1. Think I'm going to try that one as soon as I have an empty tank.

    What is snake fruit? That apricot sounds interesting. Wonder how it translates into a vape.

    I have no idea but I apparently did an sft on the Snake Fruit and deemed it to be a bit sweet but tasty. No sft on the apricot. I may try it with the NET if the others work out well.

    The Ligero levels out the fruit so maybe it would take some of the sweetness with it.

    It's possible. I usually just mix a bit of rhubarb with a too sweet fruit. The NETs could work differently. The wait is on.

    Yeah, based on what folks have been saying about rhubarb, it sounds like it has some of the same effects on juice as a mild NET.

    I like rhubarb flavors. They are all different levels of tart but none (that I've had) have been anywhere near sweet. Most Cranberries I've had do not stay tart. TFA, for instance, is very tart when mixed but within a week or 2 turns pucky sweet to me. The SC Cranberry has seemed to work the best and that is what I use when I use cranberry. Keep in mine everyone's taste is different.

    I've been considering this pod device as a easy way to taste test juices. It has a "heater plate" (sort of like mesh) and little cotton squares that are easy to change (I think it comes with 50) Anyone tried this device?

    I looked at that before and considered trying it. I wonder how hard it is to clean the pod to change flavors?

    Just for "quick" taste tests, I've even considered not filling the tank at all... just saturate the "wick", take a few draws, change wick and move on to the next flavor (similar to what I do with a RDA) No dry burn (you actually can't do that anyway) Hey, it comes with 50 cotton squares (someone said they found a source for those but haven't verified that) You might be able to put some in the pod and then use a syringe with blunt needle to suck the juice from the pod but if I can get away with just saturating the wick why bother? I have no intention of using this as a regular vape... just for quick tests. Has a decent internal battery so that's nice. You can get extra pods too. You do have to very careful to not damage the heat film when changing "wick".
