Well here is what I do and it seems to work well for me. I dig the hole, put about two inches of gravel in the bottom, set in the post. Fill in around the post with dry ready mix or dry post mix. I tamp the dry mix a couple of times while I am filling the the hole. It is much easier to work with the dry mix and the mositure in the ground will set it up in a couple of weeks. I suppose you could wet it after they were in but I don't. I have a 4 stall mare motel with breeze way that I did that way about three years ago and it has stood up to our high winds and dust devils with no sign of coming down. Not counting the horses leaning on it also.
