Bill's article on how to make stucco planters and troughs was great. I am always looking for more ways to make planters and troughs. When working alone, I envision prepping several planters or troughs, and holding these until there are several ready to go. Then, in stage two, coating with the first compound, and then holding until there is a batch ready to coat with the final hypertufa material.
My question is: how quickly do you need to move from stage one, wrapping the foam with mesh, to stage two, coating the mesh, and then from stage two to stage three, applying the hypertufa layer?
Bill--what are the workable intervals between stages?
