Published Soil Substrate Article
hmm, either I cant smell or my soil is done..
I just picked up the second small handful of soil from the tarp and it didnt have any smell at all.
I think Ill let it fully dry, re-wet it and then dry it at least one more time.
Admittedly, I totally didnt follow the directions.
I soaked it for about a day, turning it repeatedly, I also skimmed out any and all floaters that I had (a good 5+ lbs of sticks, etc).
drained it
soaked it again
drained it
(turning it 3-4 times a day the whole time)
transfered it to a shallower tub
laid it out on the tarp and let it dry, re-wet it, and I am letting it dry again.

I planned on doing at least 1 more round (it should be dry when I get home today).
Rewet it tonight.
Let it sit until Friday evening when I get home
Possibly rewet it again.
Let it sit until Saturday night or Sunday AM.
possibly rewet again.
and then once dry, build the screen and make a mess.
