Pour the concrete mix into your
wheelbarrow or mixing container.
Check the packaging for the amount
of water needed to create a mix of
concrete. After measuring, pour the
water into one side of the wheelbarrow
or container. Be sure to measure the
amount of water needed. Most 80
pound bags require no more than 2
quarts of water. Some may require 3.
Using the Garden Hoe, mix the
concrete by scooping and brushing
back and forth. Mix till the concrete
is nice and thick. A good mix should
hold its shape without dripping or
crumbling apart.
Concrete mixture should not be soupy or crumbling. A soupy mixture will
weaken the concrete too much for setting and a crumbling or dry concrete
mixture will not hold together. If your nal mixture is very watery or soupy
then add more concrete mix. For a dry or crumbling nal mixture add minor
amounts of water and then mix to a wet thick concrete.
