northern beans and ground turkey

making a pasta fagioli soup recipe that is technically stovetop but decided to throw it in my crockpot instead. the beans are dry northern beans, and i have another soup recipe i've used for years with those same beans that takes 6-8 hours on low in my crockpot. (i know you have to soak other types of beans...) anyway, this is my first time throwing a ground meat (turkey) in there, and i'm wondering if i can follow that same 6-8 hour timeline? thanks!
