as someone who has removed 40 dry pour fence posts, fuck dry pour. it’s fucking lazy and you’re fucking the dude that has to pull the plugs later.
properly mix your concrete, it’s not hard with a machine.

As someone who’s done the same, eh, you have the machine anyways, and maybe you live in a drier place? Because they more or less come out in a single chunk, or if not, soft enough that the auger won’t shirk at it. You have 50/50 chance of finding a boulder bigger than you’re auger hole anyways with any hole you try and make. We have pretty clay forward soil, so you can even just back fill and tamp it with the dirt you took out. Frost fucks with everything anyways.
