Only up to a point. If it gets too wet, you cannot compact it.

It should be moist, but never wet.

Oh. So what happens if it has been raining ?


That depends how heavy the rain is.


I can't imagine real groundworkers waiting for it to dry out!


Just because you cannot imagine it doesn't mean that it doesn't
happen.

You're welcome.
