Moving to DIY General Discussion...

Hi, and welcome @Hitstick707! Your question has a simple answer, and a more complicated one...

For 30/70, you want 4.5 ml of PG, 10.5 ml of VG. To get there with your flavors and nic, you need to know whether your nic is in a PG or VG base (or a mix), and what strength you want to cut it to. Also, the vast majority of flavorings are PG-based, so you'll want to subtract any flavoring you add from the PG in your final mix.

Example: I use 60 mg nic at a 50/50 blend. I want to make a 15 ml bottle of 6 mg liquid with 10% flavoring at a 30/70 blend.

First, I need 10% of my 60 mg nicotine to end up with 6 mg - that's 1.5 ml. Since I'm using 50/50 nic, that's 0.75 ml of VG, 0.75 ml of PG.

Next, I add 10% PG-based flavor, or another 1.5 ml - now I have 2.25 ml PG, 0.75 ml VG.

Now, I need another 2.25 ml of PG to get to my 4.5 ml target, and 9.75 ml of straight VG to get to my 10.5 ml target.

Make sense?

Have you found an eliquid calculator that you're comfortable with, yet?
Okay, leave it to the DIY experts to step in and remind me there are computer programs to do the math for you...I like eJuiceMeUp, but there are a handful of others that do the same thing with a different skin - you may want to shop around to see what works for you, then download it and go to town. My example will help you understand the math, but it'll be a nightmare once you start dealing with recipes with 4, 5 and 10 ingredients...

I'm not an expert, I take the easy way out, lol. You use your brain. ;)
