One carto per flavor?

Ive been looking this also since I will be receiving my PV and cartos shortly with some e-juice.

Most people suggest boiling cartos for about 5 minutes, blowing them out, then setting them onto paper towel or in the sun. Other also suggest rigging a condom from a carto to a syringe and pumping water through them to clean them out. I think I am going to try the turkey baster technique first. Because of the taper on the end of the turkey baster it should fit relatively snug and then you just pump water in and out of it a couple times. I assume there could be some residual flavors/aromas but rising them out and boiling seem to be the two most popular ways to clean and reuse a carto.
 
Just started vaping a little over a week ago and I already have about 8 carto's that are dirty and I've run out of whatever flavor was in them. I wish I would have dripped to test out all of my flavor samples...

I did find a great place to buy some Boge cartos really cheap though - I ordered two 5-packs and received them two days after I ordered (talk about FAST shipping!).

Boge Mix n Match (5 Boxes)

At this price I consider them disposable. You can try cleaning them, but at less than $1.00 each - just use them until you are out of whatever flavor of juice you are vaping, then toss 'em.

I have a cart that I rotate through coffee, vanilla and toffee flavours in various combinations, and sometimes with tobacco, and sometimes with hazelnut. There doesn't seem to be a wrong combination of those flavours, so it's sometimes more of one, sometimes more of another. Works for me. But I wouldn't try adding apple or banana to that mix... ;)

Most of my cartos seem to be lasting me forever! I use the boge's sr on ego batteries. I like to mix up some of the sweet flavors and some of the fruity ones, obviously in different cartos. I do find that my dekang chocolate can sometimes get totally lost in the mix though! And, I have a banana cream pie that is really good, but whatever I add to it, all I can taste is the banana! Cinnamon is about the same when you add a bit as it's strong....

When I load up a fresh carto, I fill from the bottom using the condom method. Then, I drip a few drops on the top when they seem to need it. That is the point where I will usually add in a different flavor, if I so chose.

I did boil a few of them yesterday and they are still drying. I tried to get a syringe, but I were told they are illegal in my state... so, I improvised the turkey baster to try to get out the rest of the water after boiling. I hope they work well enough to test a bunch of the new flavors that just arrived! Good Luck!
