First time making e-juice - need to know what I need

Hey everyone. I have about a quarter ounce of ABV, and 2g of wax/shatter. I want to use this tek:

My question is hopefully simple - do I need to decarb the wax/shatter in addition to the ABV? Or can those concentrates be added directly to the ABV concentrate and then diluted with ejmix?

I've added CO2 extracts and shatter straight to the media I use for THCjuice (puffmajic) and it works quite well, no need to decarb beforehand.

No decarbing necessary if youre going to vape it... Ej mix was pretty good at mixing in at 85 degrees f

Get mixer and either use Microwave or double boiler method to mix the wax with mixer. I personally don't like EJMIX due to heavy chemical taste so get Puff Majic or MixerWhite mixer instead. I prefer MW cos they have tobacco flavor with nicotine. Go check it out before you pull the trigger.

I made a nice sized batch with an ounce of killer top shelf and just enough media to cover it. I used the VG slow steep method. Let to sit at room temps for three months. Was to be really potent so I decarbed after extracting to not produce a nutty/woody flavor. Wasted it all. Hardly got a buzz and couldn't stay awake for crap 30 minutes later. Figured the VG simply wasnt able to pull its max from the plant material so the second time I used a few grams of co2 and this time I used Puff Magic instead of VG and since in theory it makes sense to decarb to get the maximum conversion of THCA to THC I listened and wasted the CO2 as well. Dont do it unless you have sleep issues as it can also convert THC into CBN and at a greater risk if its already in concentrate.

FC usually is great about this topic but I am sure someone may disagree so I'm going to simply put it this way, thats my experience with both plant and extract and I simply wouldn't do it again nor could I advise others to do it unless its for oral consumption.

VG is not a solvent to my knowledge. It is a good vapeable matrix for concentrate to mix with once already made. Shoulda taken the ounce, made qwet/qwiso/bho/rosin and then put that into VG.

Ejmix, puff magic have both worked well for me using 2ml of the ejuice and 1 gram of shatter. I've also used 1ml of ejuice and 1 gram of shatter.

I use an istick 20 watt battery and kanger aerotank mini. Puff at 7 watts and works fantastic.

It's a wonderful compliment to my crafty and very predictable doses which I love.
