I don't know how well straight stevia would dissolve into a VG or PG solution. I guess you could try it, but if you see particulate matter remaining, I might abandon that choice. . You'll also have to figure out what percentage you need to place in solution to use for your sweetening events.
I'm not saying it's impossible or anything (I simply don't know enough about stevia to say, I use sucralose) but doing this would probably require some trial and experimentation, if it can be done successfully at all. Which I don't see an immediate reason why you couldn't, it would probably be a matter of researching it more, and seeing what solution percentage and dissolving process works best for stevia.
Good luck, I hope it works out well for you.

I do my own e-juice and sometimes want to add a little sweetener. To sweeten I use liquid organic stevia bought in local Vitamin Shoppe store. There are 2 different liquid stevia extracts. One is alcohol based and other vegetable glycerin based. I use vg based because alcohol could be a little too harsh to vape even if added in tiny amounts. Stevia is extremelly sweet... I was adding 5 eyedrops per 30 ml of e- liquid but I've found out it was too sweet and cut it to 2- 3 drops per 30ml. One good thing about stevia is that it is much more coil friendly and gunk coils much less than sucralose. Below is link to liquid stevia I bought 2 oz (60ml) bottle that I paid only $7.95 (at that time was on sale) . It will last me for couple of years unless I will start sweeten my teas and coffee.

Buy liquid Stevia. I don't know the dilution percentages though.
E-liquid super concentrated flavoring is alcohol based and used in higher %'s than 5 drops per 30ml. Some don't like the taste of alcohol but it doesn't make it unusually harsh.
There's an organic health food store here in okc where I live called Green Acres where I usually buy vg and they have a huge selection of flavored Stevia that is all vg based. I was just wondering if anyone has tried using it.
I haven't tried it, but that doesn't mean they may not be worth trying. If stevia is your deal (it's not mine) then it might be just what you are looking for. Perhaps they sell "tester" sizes, which would probably be a good way to go until you get familiar with them.

Haven't tried the Stevia in VG yet, but I use Stevia in my mixes at about .5%
Yea, it's really too expensive anyway at $15 a bottle. I was also wondering where to find the best recipes at. I ran across a bunch that sounded good but l think they'e from Russia and the flavoring amounts seem too high. I've got 5 or 6 bottles of juice that came Ukraine and to say it sucks is an understatement. I think its opossum flavored or something.
