Step 2Mixing Concrete

Mixing Concrete
Pour some Quikrete in the plastic tub and add enough water to thoroughly wet the concrete.  Mix the concrete, adding more water if necessary until it's thoroughly moistened and about the consistency of muffin batter.   Be sure to stir the dry concrete from the bottom and the corners of the tub so all the mix is completely wet. 

THIS PHOTO does not look accurate!  It has not been mixed, therefore, looks like more water than you will need.  To see what the concrete looks like when it is mixed properly, see step 4.  You can add the water a bit at a time so you don't put in too much.
