Pouring in Polk: local conditions

On the ridge the sand drains almost too fast - damp the base before pouring so it doesn't rob water from the mix. Off-ridge flatwoods behave like the rest of coastal-plain Florida: seasonal water, compact well.

Oct-May reliable; interior location means hot, storm-prone summers - morning pours Jun-Sep.
