Do you have an Aerotank base for your protank? If not, I'd invest in one. They're like $4.

That's totally understandable. You must be a really fast learner since your signature says that you've been vaping for less than 2 months. My point was that everybody seems to want to just "plug and play" and there is a lot of value in taking all of the steps and learning from them as you go. Don't forget that the main goal was to get off of cigarettes. You've done that. The rest as they say is "gravy". Especially if funds are low..take your time. You can get a clone rda and an inexpensive mech set up for probably about $30. Save up until you can get it and and give the protank some hell for a little while longer. It might not be as satisfying as you want it to be, but it's good enough to keep you off the stinkies...that's the truly important thing

How did you measure your %? Did you use drops or mls? Is the flavour weak or strong. How did you mix your base? The ingredients that you used are good. The passion fruit, probably is pretty strong and the white peach is subtle. The cream can take a bit to blend.
I would go higher on the pg, I find that the vg mutes flavour for me.
I also make 30 ml bottles as the % amounts are really tiny in 10 MLS unless you make a flavour bottle like @HeadInClouds does for small amounts.

99.9% of the time you added to much flavor…. The other .1% of the time who knows…
This is just an FYI from my experience… I ALWAYS flavor on the weak side and since I am still new to making my own juices I use drops to measure.
So for example.. I am making a 30ml bottle of juice.. I decide I want to make a Coconut flavor. I start with 15 drops of flavor. (1 drop per 2ml) I shake it up real good… Like 30 seconds… Then I try it immediately. If it is to weak I add 5 drops and test it again. I do this until I find a happy spot.
So lets say 15 drops made it taste good… But I want to add a little pineapple flavor to make a pina colada type flavor. So I add 10 drops of my second flavor and test it… To weak I add 5 drops and test again… Etc….
This is what I would recommend that you do @ironprime until you get your feet wet to try something else.
but the only problem with that is: not all drops are the same.
If you ever want to accurately reproduce a recipe you like.. percentages rule!

Lots if problems with lots if things aren't there? This is what I do and it has worked great.

As long as it works for you...
I just mix in large batches, so drops will not do me a lick of good.

Agreed. Percentages are good. But for a newbie drops is a quick way to learn and fairly safe. Keeps newbies like me from over mixing.
On larger batches I prefer to use weight. Percentages and me don't get along.

actually, even when I first started out.. I was told percentages..
with graduated cylinders, it's even simpler..
drops come in too many sizes, so it will never be accurate.

I run 85%vg and 15%water in mine. I add flavor as well so it's probably closer to 80% vg in my pt2. Seems your percentages are ok to me. Hmmmmm.

Sometimes it takes a bit to get it going. Have you tried priming the wick?

yes im getting vapor just a bad taste
I can say its too thick for the Protank 2. try adding a couple drops of distilled water at a time until it clears up. Even my 50/50 in a Protank gets 2% DW and with fruit a few drops of lemon juice.

Lemon juice?
it makes the fruit flavor pop.. Ascorbic acid like Apple cider vinegar makes tobacco mix pop. That's also acid.
Sounds like a wicking issue, maybe too much cotton, or too much voltage...
Are you willing to share receipt???Sounds yummy!!!I can not pick a fav flavor.. but I made some liquid sunshine in a bottle this weekend..
based on a citrus punch type.. with spices..
I think I am in trouble, as I have already sold out 8 ounces, vaped another 20ml and looking at empty bottles!!
