have had some ready mixed cement stored in a shed for about a year or so.

although it's a bit solid, if i scrape at it, it then goes powdery, so i
could mix it up.

could i use this old mix for anything? someone has told me if i do it will
not have much strength? but even so i guess there are little jobs around
the
garden that dont require much strength?

is it likely to be of any use please?




You could add more strength to it by mixing it with cement in a ratio of
perhaps 1 part cement to 8 part ready mix concrete. Make sure you break up
the ready mix really well first.
