HI, I am a new member and need a little advice.Yesterday i hired a mini digger and motorised barrow and dug out a soil area of about 35 square metres.I then put in 75mm of inch down dolomite in,i was just about to wack it and then................. rain ....rain.... rain......It got soaked to the point that your feet sink straight in.I have not wacked it all, do i just have to wait until it dries out or is their any other method to get the work completed. :( :( :(

Give it 1 pass then leave it till it's dry enough. 1 pass will make parts a bit soft but when the weather gets better it will all dry quicker. Obviously do this when it's not raining.
Can't see it from my house
