Is it in the health section or food. I read food based glycerine is keeped with the first aid stuff. I wanna experiment and make a glycerine tincture but I don't know what or where to look. No many selections of stores in my area

I got mine from the health section at Sprouts Farmers Market. I just make some. The VG is a lot thicker than one would think. That's, from what I've read, is the reason for the PG. I went ahead and made mine without the PG. It didn't seem right to use a petroleum distillate in my oil. Oils almost gone now but yesterday a salesperson at a vape shop told me without the PG in the oil is so thick it will burn up the heater coils.

How are you going to make your oil? Have you ever done it before? Experimenting is my thing. I would like to follow along and see how it comes out.

No I never made oil before and I do plan to make it myself. I gotta do a little more homework and decide what kinda oil gonna make glycerine or alcohol and when im gonna buy the stuff. But if I do make the oil anytime soon i'll keep you posted.
