Hi guys hope you can help

Have just put the sub base in for our new block paved driveway did all of the edge restraints on the same day. Have come back to start screeding and the type one I've whacked down is in places like jelly and very wet. It does have quite a high content of fines, my question is will it go hard if left long enough or am I going to have to tear it up and start again!

Cheers LLL I'd trawled the web and found conflicting answers. It has been sat for about a week and is still wet. I suppose a couple of decent days should sort it out?
