Calculator always says check PG/VG ratios

I'm trying to create a vanilla swirl cheese cake juice.

Amount to make: 30ml.
Desired VG: 70% as this is for a mod, not a pod.
Desired strength: 2 mg/ml. Of what?
Nicotine strength: I want 6% (I think) but it says mg/ml. I enter 6 mg/ml.
PG in nic: 100%. That took a while to find in the fine print.

The calculator says, "Something went wrong, check PG/VG ratios

Then the recipe itself says,
Nic: 16.66 grams, 33.33 %.
PG: -3.7 grams.
VG: 20.18 grams

Looks like the calculator tripped you up with the nic strength. You’ve got 100 mg/ml nic in PG, not 6 mg/ml. That’s why it was spitting out crazy numbers.

The desired strength is the amount of nicotine you want in your juice. 2mg, 3mg or even 6mg for free base juice.
Nicotine strength is how much nicotine is in the bottle of nicotine you have. Usually 100mg/ml.

Correct Calculator Settings

Amount to make: 30 ml

Desired strength: 2 mg/ml (unless you want more nic in your juice)

Nicotine base strength: 100 mg/ml (if that is what the bottle says)

PG in nic: 100% (could be VG based too, but for free base, it is usually PG based)

VG/PG ratio: 70% VG / 30% PG

Okay I can handle that, but I just noticed my bottle says, 100 mg/ml, and just to the right of that it says 10%.

What'sup wit dat? How does that get factored in?

You can ignore the 10% bit. It is not needed for the calculator. All you care about is the 100mg/ml.
I believe the 10% you see is the content of the bottle. 90% PG, 10% raw nicotine. But I could be wrong about that.
