Do you sqeeze during when you "hand test" your wbs?

My wbs is passing the spoon test, but still fails the hand test with a slight squeeze.. Is it good to go?

How do you squeeze wild bird seed ??  LoL

You should take a handful of bird seed then just simply turn your hand sideways and dump it out and see if any sticks to your hand, there is no reason to squeeze.

:thumbup:

What you're describing is a squeeze test for field capacity in bulk substrates.

In grains you want to look for no visible moisture and to check if they pass the above test.

Changing your mind is one of the best ways of finding out whether or not you still have one.
