If it=E2=80=99s hardened it can=E2=80=99t be unhardened. However if it is ju=

It's more than I need, but if I have to throw away 2/3rd of it, I'll still h=

My question is, can a sealed bag of concrete that may have had moisture be s=

I don't know what you would have to pay for them where you are, but here in=
 southern WI they are around $4 for a 60 pound bag. That is pretty cheap an=
d guaranteed to be good, dry usable concrete mix.

I'd not take the chance on all of that wasted concrete unless you know some=
one who needs granular fill......

I spread old concrete/mortar mix over my unpaved driveway and rake it in 
dry.
