quote:and lots of people just pour the dry concrete in the hole, spray some water and give it a couple of pokes with a stick. OP you will be fine. Remember concrete cures, not dry. you can open a bag under water and it will harden
You're fine. A lot of people set post in dirt only.

2x4 bracing if you are worried.
Pour the concrete into the hole, no need to remove the water.
Get a good collar and a line and tie that dog up so you don't have to rush.

Dump that shite in the hole and let it displace the water.
don't do that, it makes the concrete weaker. bail water, pour concrete in dry, tamp it with a stick/dowel to remove air/fluff. a stiff slow set-up is always stronger (insert whatever joke you want)

It's a wooden fence post not a airport runway, it's not going to make a big difference if the compressive strength is lower. You really only want the deadweight and concrete is the easiest and least expensive option.
