Put it under your light in your room, that would dry it out quicker than letting it just sit.

Thanks it's a 72 litre pot lol

Spread it out.....

Why are you drying soil?

Yea that's pretty big. Are you trying to transplant in the pot or why do you need to dry it out so quickly?

It's been ph'd and need it in next 3-5days for transplant

Why do you need dry dirt to transplant? What are you talking about when you say your soil has been ph'd?

Because it's been ph'd but when I transplant I have feed half strength nutes and I don't want to soak it to much or I would end up making my plant ill and old water get segment

I think they're asking what "I ph'ed it" means. Did you merely test the runoff of soil out of the bag? Or, did you treat it somehow?

There's nothing wrong with transplanting with wet soil (that I'm aware of). If it's dry you'll have to pour water into the container to saturate the dry soil. Or, you can saturate it before putting it in the container. That won't preclude watering in further to saturate the plant and the soil coming with it.

Kinda sounds like what the coco coir guys do when they "charge" their stuff........ Maybe we've got different methods confused

Turn up the heat, turn on the lights, turn on the fans, and turn on the dehumidifier. Thatll do it for ya.

try to spread it out between a few pots to help it dry if you can.. make sure they're well ventilated; stagnant air + moisture = bad news. Keep it all under some lights to speed it all up.. just did this with some 3 gal. pots after harvesting.. turned the soil in the pots to ensure thorough dry. Good luck!
