Mixing for pods

I had some formulas I used, but for most recipes I was tripping the nic strength for low power pods. and with salt that seemed to need more flavor, so I increasing the flavor by about 1% for my capella/tfa type mixes where the juice total would be about 16%.

I just put in this and it’s OK, but flavor is really weak

I mix everything 60/40 VG/PG and never have problems with wicking. For a POD i’d use salt nic 3X my normal strength (so 18mg) then I’d bump the TF 1.5% or so, but from what i’ve heard I might keep the Cactus at 1.5%.

But remember i have diminished sense of taste so I mix everything high and do a long steep.

Yeah, this juice is what I vape in a regular tank, was just to get a feeling of what it would do. Nothing wrong with the cactus %, you should try it, it’s a nice juice and almost SnV certified :wink:

I’ll probably up the nic a bit but not too much… i’m already getting a slight nic high from chain vaping this thing.
70/30 isn’t a problem for wicking, this pod wicks like a champ but I’ll probably change to 50/50 or 55/45 to reduce vapor output… kinda got it for a stealthy puff on a transatlantic flight :smiley: A slight increase in throat hit wouldn’t be bad either.

MAN I almost bought that cactus flavor the other day and decided not to. I may give it a try though as I have heard good things about it.

Don’t get thrown off that plane lol, wait till your half way to destination so they cant turn the plane around!

Cactus is very handy, like dragonfruit, it can be mixed in very low % with other fruits to make the vape a bit more moist or to boost another flavor.
The Cactus flavor itself is something you either love or hate they say. Generally speaking I don’t like it that much but it really works well with Kiwi.

And no, I won’t get kicked off the plane lol I’ve done it before in plain sight… just keep the vapor in for a while and slowly exhale into a sweater or a blanket or so… nobody sees or notices anything.

Yes good that you mention that. Was one of my first bought flavors, and the idiot I am mixed it at 2%.

It was a great potpourri :rofl: I think that made me not use it often anymore and nowadays i can pick it out of any juice even at low percentage. that experience and taste will be forever burned into my mind lol. It’s definitely a great additive as you mentioned, if used sparingly.
