i went to Walmart to get some VG, it says loosen control if ingested...
I mixed it and hit some nice clouds compared to my pg based liquid.
Just want to reassure this stuff IS SAFE.

Thanks in advance

My freezer is full of the grocery store variety, been mixing with it for months. Tastes good, no death. ;)

i just wasnt sure it was the correct kind, i never even seen it before i went and picked it up! and yes, it really does not mess my taste up to bad at all!

I do. It's right in there with PG and nic. You just have to let it get to room temperature (or close to it) before you can work with it. It doesn't freeze, but the consistency gets thicker.

where do you get nic and pg?

pg is a laxative from my understanding?

could i possible just make a 100 percent vg liquid?

i am thinking maybe 90vg 10pg.
with a little niq

No, propylene glycol is not a laxative. It functions as a flavor "carrier" in eliquid, as well as many liquid products in your kitchen, i.e. vanilla extract, drink mixes, etc. It is also an ingredient in asthma inhalers.
I order pg from Bull City Vapor. Harder to find in stores than vg. I get nicotine from Vaperstek.org and Nicotine River.com. That's me, there are other vendors for different fluids, but those are my faves.
You can do 100% vg, but flavor will be lacking and most coils won't handle 100% very well.

So I can use regular vanilla extract in my vape liquid I see?

Not advisable. Some vanilla extracts aren't pure and have other additives you may not want. And none will give you the same vanilla flavor as a flavor concentrate.

Is that found in the pharmacy area of the store, or in the grocery side?

At the Food City where I get it, it's right around the band-aids and other bandages.

The one time I tried to get it at Walmart, it was in the pharmacy, but they were out. I think it was somewhere around the ointments and creams and such.

You're welcome! I try to shop as cheaply as I can without sacrificing quality. The first time I bought this, I came home and did a lot of googling before I ever opened it. When satisfied that it wasn't harmful, I gave it the ol' "taste test" and mixed a vape with it. I swear it is no different than what I was paying for online without the hefty price tag for shipping. (VG is pretty heavy and shipping is not cheap) I buy 3-4 bottles every time I'm at the grocery store and chuck it in the freezer.

When i just went, it was in the pharmacy section in near first aid.
It is sold as a skin care product, walmart is generally the same across the board so i will assume it is there for you as well.
the taste is great.

Can you use 100vg? And just add distilled water?

You can, but your flavor will really suffer. If you're just in it for clouds, sure, you can do that. I really love my flavors though.

I like the flavor too.....although I've only tried 1 I actually like......mountian dew. All the fancy waffles an bacon and all that jus doesn't thrill me or maybe I haven't found the right flavor yet. The info within this forum is insanely large and I keep combing through it...

Didn't mean to jump in on the post just curious.

Jump right in anywhere you like, we're cool. I've never vaped straight vg, but I know from others here that it can be a coil gunker and the flavor isn't exactly "out there." Just go high vg, like an 80/20 or maybe even a 90/10, but treat yourself to some flavor in there somewhere. Once you find your flavor profile, you'll love it. :)

I use straight VG w/ 10% flavoring, has been working really well for me for a couple of months. Flavoring seems to have more to do with the coil-gunking aspect than the vg/pg ratio. Mostly using Capella V2 Vanilla Custard and VG and my coils hold up beautifully.

Where does one buy pg locally?

Does straight vg burn up coils quicker

Tractor Supply has PG if you have one close by. On question 2, no but it will not wick as well as like a 50/50 mix.

Mama J's Juice has the best custard concentrate, Game Over Custard. Give it a try, you'll love it. ;)

It's a top seller alright. Best custard I've had yet, good standalone or mixed with fruit (or whatever your favorite may be). I could about drink it....lol!

You can get 3ml samples of their FA flavors for cheap. Good especially if you're not sure you'll like something or if it's something you won't use often. I have a massive collection of 10ml bottles of flavoring that only require a drop here and there, simply because the vendor didn't offer smaller sizes. And their ship time is off the charts.

I have roughly a 90vg-10pg mix now, and i can take some huge hits a few times without going dry.
but yes, it is harder to soak when it is so thick.
