You can, yes. If you add VG nic' you will be increasing the VG/PG ratio and diluting the flavour, and if you add PG nic' you will be decreasing the VG/PG ratio and diluting the flavour. If using 72mg nicotine and aiming for a low nicotine strength such as 3mg, there shouldn't be a dramatic change in any of those factors.

If I were to add 5ml of 18mg vg nice to 30ml of 0mg juice, would the flavour change much tho?

You would be taking the flavouring distributed through 30ml of juice, and spreading it over 35ml of juice instead. So your juice would only have 6/7ths of the original flavour, or 85.7% of the flavour if you like.

All I'm going to say is if your desired outcome is 6mg use an online calucultor and aim for 3-4mg mix. Then try it and top up the nic shot to suit.

I've found that if I like 6mg bought liquid. My own mix like you are doing seems very strong to me when I add the shot myself.
