Tincture question

So I have a few broken the carts(thc oil) is there a way I could create a tincture from it instead of transporting to a new cart to use it? Any thoughts?

Look at the label. If it lists THCA in higher levels than THC, you'll need to decarb to activate the THCA(acid) into THC.

In most cases, due to the way wax, shatter, oil, etc,.. are processed the THCA remains unactivated so there will be no psychoactive effects until the THCA is heated and converted to THC.

The oil in the cart is concentrated, so it may be stronger than you think. A little may go a long way once decarbed.

how would you decarb cart oil, just give it a heat treatment as is, or do you need chem equipment to do it?
I've done it a couple of different ways when desperate and still used oil. Double boiler, very low heat in a toaster oven (line a small baking sheet with parchment paper but make a dam, because the oil will get runny, put oil on paper and heat at about 225 degrees for 20 minutes or so)
Added it directly to hot cup of coffee.

The best way was to add the oil straight into the brownie mix. It decarbed while the brownies baked.
