My fertilizer is all wet...whats the best way to dry it?
Question:It's alot, about 20 pounds and the bag has liquid in the bottom.
I guess that little hole was big enough to let ALOT of moisture in. Ooooops, any ideas?
And, I cant use it now, I just fertilized.
Answers:
Use a large piece of plastic and spread it out in the sun. Turn it occasion sally until it drys out.
put it in a microwave
put it in a plastic bucket, like a 5 gallon bucket. pour the water off. the water will be so concetrated it will kill anything that you pour it on, so be careful where you pour it. sit the bucket in a shady dry area, like under a shed. in a few days, it will be dried out onto a big clump. break the clump up, back into small grains.
----------------------
you can dump it out in a sunny place, but a lot of it will evaporate with the water.

the nitrogen will be gone, but you can still save the P and K.

DO NOT put it in a metal bucket or let it come into contact with metal, it is VERY corrosive. (aluminum is an exception)
