hi everyone
i am new to vaping and brought 10*10ml ejuice from Health cabin.
5 of them are 80/20 pg/vg and remaining 5 20/80 pg/vg ratio.
2 bottles 18mg nic,4 bottles 11mg and 4 bottles 6mg
actually i didn't know how much nicotine is good for me,so i ordered in this manner.
i have tried 6mg and 11mg juices the 6mg juices are very good but 11mg is giving me dizziness.
after trying 11mg i didnt even touch 18mg juice.now i am running low on juice.is there any way to reduce the nicotine so that i can use them instead of disposing them.

If you have it you can add PG or VG to your juice to dilute the juice and thus the nic. But that would also alter the strength of the flavor...
Other, more workable option is to buy the same juices but with 0mg nic and use these to dilute the ones with 11mg and 18mg.

thanks for the suggestion.
what happens if i expose it to the sunlight?

A better way is to get the lowest nicotine, or no nicotine of the same juice and mix it. That way, you don't change the flavor.

also I had some 24mg juice and I cut it 3 to 1 with VG..I didn't notice much in reduction of flavour but it reduced it to 18mg nicotine..you're 18mg juice mixed 3 to 1 would be 13mg..you're 11mg juice would be 8mg or so..it works pretty good and VG is really cheap..just make sure you buy USP Glycerine..

VG = Glycerine. Same thing. Also, "USP" which stands for United States Pharmacopeia, is a United States standard for all over-the-counter pharmaceuticals. Some other countries adopt this standard but many don't. This is why you don't see it in India. If you have "medical grade glycerine" it is probably the same thing as USP grade. Do you have access to Amazon? I know it is available there as well.

thanks for the explanation..I always heard USP is what you need and all my stuff in Canada is labelled as such..would make sense other countries adopt different grades..

Another factor in the TH is the amount of PG. PG give more throat hit and vg more vapor. I like a 50/50 mix. Its a smoother vape for me as I dont care much for TH and enjoy the vape and the taste. I hope all the info above and this helps you get the vape youre after.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks so much for the explanation!
