Shoutout to the guy who helped me when my mortar mix went soupy on a chimney repair in Spokane last fall. What's your go-to fix for a bad batch?

Just add more dry mix, right? How bad can it really get?

You said how bad can it get, and it's funny how that mindset shows up everywhere. It's like when you ignore a weird noise in your car because it's probably fine, then you're stuck on the highway. Or you keep adding water to a soup that's too salty, hoping it'll fix itself, and you just ruin the whole pot. Small problems have a way of turning into big messes when you don't deal with them right away.
