Mine steeped for longer than 4 weeks and this is what I mixed twice. I currently use 75 mg PG base. Tried it on three different atty's and it's vapeable but only so so..Maybe I 'll try a 4% mix and see where it goes. Burley, I mix at 7.5% and it's fabulous.

Tried two batches of GR with 2.5 %. Can't really say I like it that much... Burley on the other hand..YUM! 3% Golden Rollie + 2% Vape Wizard and steep for at least 4 weeks maccafan .. the longer it steeps, the stronger it gets and the deeper the flavour. GR is my adv. Smells like wet grass to me & doesn't taste much better, not that i've ever tasted wet grass.

I tried my first batch after about 7 weeks. My home made virginia tobacco leaf soaked in nic+ PG/VG did smell the same initially but did mature after about 8 weeks into a very tobaccoish flavour. Shame that juice was a coil gunker even after triple filtering as after the flavour matured it was a very nice vape indeed. May be some of us just need a higher percentage

Worked my way up to 5% but still couldn't get along with this flavour, in fact, i still have the last sample i made at 5% on November 28th last year, just had another sniff & it's still not appealing to me, shame as i had high hopes after reading some favourable reviews.
I guess it's just a case of one man's meat 'n' all that.

I guess so. Suffice to say once I have tried different flavour percentages-might as well since I already have it- I am very unlikely to buy this flavour.

I just stick a bit of Flavourarts Caramel in it @ 2% to give it that nice smooth feel and a bit of difference. Saying that i put Flavourarts Caramel in all my tobacco flavors

That's my next port of call.. I am gonna try a 3.5 % GR + 2 % Apple + 2% caramel and let it rest for a couple of weeks and see if it makes a nice Caramel Apple tobacco. Unproven recipe below for 24 mg juice:

Unproven recipe below for 24 mg juice: maccafan ... did you get around to doing this mix .. if so, how much influence did 2% apple have on it? I have just ordered some F'art Apple as I have found the HoL Eden very moreish and would like to try making my own Apple/Golden Rollie mix.

Unproven recipe below for 24 mg juice: Hi maccafan ... I added 5% FA Apple to some pre-steeped (4 weeks) GR and left it to steep for a further 10 days and it is great ... very similar to HoL Eden to my taste buds.
