My muck receipe using potters clay
I take a large hunk of earth toned potters clay (approx. 2 gallons by volume) break into chunks and put it in a 5 gallon bucket. Then add water. Then using a heavy duty drill motor with a large paint mixer in the chuck, I'll stir it until it's a slurry. Then add stringy spagnum to the mix and stir in. Then dump the whole mess into an old pillow case. hang it up and allow to drain for a few days until it's a workable consistancy.
Put it in a sealed container until ready to use.
