Short answer is yes, but more complicated version is depends on how picky you want to be. Probably why you get mixed opinions if researching.
Yes, you can use the Source Turbo to make cartridges. @AfgVet I believe does this with her ETOH Pro.
It all centers around the QWET. -40F (or C) cold soak alcohol and flower separately for 4 hours (pack dry ice around jars), mixed together and shake vigorously for 2 minutes then every minute for a total of 10 minutes. This wash is drained off of the plant material as quickly as possible (I use sprout screens for a Mason jar) then run through a coffee filter. Many use a Buchner funnel and 120 µ filter paper. I just go through a coffee filter twice (I’m making dab oil). This goes into the crucible and is run out and recovered. That’s it. Now you have a light, high terpene content, 90% THC oil you can mix in with whatever vehicle you use in your carts.
Save the leftovers and run a second wash at -5F for 24 hours and do a full spectrum extraction for edibles. That oil can then be decarb’ed for that use.
After I run it through the etoh, I use the following process to make carts
I appreciate the feedback from all 3 of you, if I get more time at home in the future I may buy one.
I realized with my rosin press I don’t have time to wash hash very often to press rosin so I generally just make gummies or trade store bought gummies for a wack of flower to my dad lol. Gummies are so cheap here, I like mine at times because they are stronger but so far theirs taste better and are much more consistent lol
Update July 20
It’s been a while since I posted an update. Been laid up after two surgeries.

Both reservoirs running: averaging 4 gallons per day
VPD is on the high side but manageable in this climate
Jack’s 2-2-2-1.2 for 3 weeks: returning to 3=2=1 tomorrow.
Lights at 200 watts per panel, 12/12 since July 5.
Autopots and fabric pots: fairly happy this go-round.
Looking great…thanks for the update…happy growing
All things considered, they look great!
Hope you get to feeling better brother!
They look great old timer! How are you feeling this week?
Hope you’re feeling better!!!
Plants are looking great regardless. Hope the recovery goes well
Yesterday was the first day since surgery I felt almost human: went out and shot a couple of boxes of shells on the skeet field (HOT!) but really felt how out of condition I am. That’s the worst part as I’ve lost 25 lbs. I can’t afford to lose.
I am finally getting a handle on conditions here and actually find it fairly easy to grow. Just slightly smaller plants than I’m used to. That’s okay as I’ve got 4 lbs of flower in the freezer lol.
Keep that up and you wont only be old but frail too
Glad you finally had a decent day, Hope you continue to recover properly and quickly !
Your room looks well organized. You got out to shoot that’s a good sign. Hope you are doing well, get the wife to fatten you up!
I’m in surgery right now… Lost my temper punched a wall and found a stud.
I really did a number to it so they have to put wires in my knuckles.
Ugh highly regret it and can’t believe I let myself get to that point. Work is relentless they want me back tomorrow, I just direct people in an emergency I Geuss… Putting me In a first aider role because I can’t do IVs with my hand in a cast.
Can’t believe they are sending me back actually but I need the money lol!
Hey did you see we get our handguns banned now soon? Trying to get a hold of a Glock 19 Gen 5 mos but can’t find one.
Here is a cool video for everyone
Bud porn and pie…a lethal combo. I am sorry to hear about your life situation bud. The wife and I have a 15 yr old min pin and a small cat. Both on meds and prolly in their last year of life. We have had both of them since birth. I live in Denver. Not BS’ing here if you ever need anything, hollar. I am “that” guy…
It is good to see you are on the up side there It is odd to see you not in scrogs. They do look good. Your heat is to low there
I need to give you a yell also. Mostly for your settings I see on your gauge there. If I set mine at 80 and the fan speed say at 5. I wouldn’t get to the 5 till I was at 90. 80 degrees would only run at 1. I have mine set low now so I run at what I want by 80. So I set mine to come on at 74 and fan speed at 4
I’ve got mine set at 10 and 80F: when it hits the set point it ramps up to 10 then drops back to zero when it hits 78F. I don’t worry about humidity any more as there simply isn’t any WPM in this climate.
Do give me a call so we can catch up!
