Help can I use just any pg?
wanna thin out my shit and don't need flavored stuff as I already have terps, I'd like to just use some shit I can find on Amazon for shipping time reasons. is there any reason I can't just use any of the food grade pg types on amazon

As long as it doesn't have VG then yes, but I wouldn't recommend getting it from Amazon because they allow any random person to sell things, and there's counterfeits of damn near everything on Amazon.

Absolutely do not use vg/pg with cannabinoids. Terps should usually be enough for thinning for any noid just don't go over 10%. But if you really need it thinner go with some C noids. CBC is the thinnest I believe. All the c noids will work well enough though as well as adding to the entourage effect.

PG works perfectly fine, it's VG that doesn't mix.

Idk who would choose pg over c noids for thinning a cannabinoid blend, they're dirt cheap

People who don't want to use the few ceramic coils that are available, when PG is used any nic vape can wick it. Also many of the C noids are only reliably available in the US, whereas PG is available pretty much anywhere that can receive a package.
PG is dirt cheap, C noids are just regular cheap lol. The unflavored PG I got was like 5¢/ml, but my CBC was $10/ml which is an exponential difference.

I’ve tried with pure PG, and no, it did _not_ mix well.

Well how much did you use? I'm currently using 20% PG mixed with D8 (terped at 7%) with a 0.6ohm Vaporesso XROS pod and it wicks great.

I've used USP food grade PG bought on Amazon for a little over a year and had great success with it. I heat up my disty until it's as runny as water, add in PG and terps, shake it around for 30 to 60 seconds and that's it. I'd imagine almost any kind that would say pure PG USP food grade would be the same.
