Wet FB board

[jjenkins74]

So i poured 2 1!2 inches of vermiculite concrete on top of my FB board but I forgot to cover it. Its soggy. Can't dry it out. Luckily I didnt mortar the bricks. They are only sitting on silicate sand and fireclay mix.

i coukd try to start a few small fires om top of the bricks to try to dry board before building rhe dome.

But im leaning towards starting over and forgoing the FB board and simply pouring vermiculite concrete only. Somewhere between 3 1/2 inches and 5 inches.

Any recommendations are greatly appreciated.

It will all dry out and the board will be ok. If it were mine I’d be removing the floor bricks( maybe numbering them first for correct replacement). Then allow the sun and wind do its work for two.weeks.Read my attached drying experiment.
