Hello guys ,i am a new member of this forum , i have read some posts from experienced people here but now i have a problem and i need help as soon as possible. I have submerged a deer hide on an alum solution but i believe i have a made a mistake with the ratio. I have used 2 cups of alum and 2 cups of salt for every galon of water. My barrel has about 9 galons of water and 18 cups of alum and 18 cups of non iodised salt. Can this still work? should i takw the hide out and try again? thanks a lot in advance

(what if i put 9more galons of water in the barrel?will that solve it?because i have seen i need 1 cup of each for every galon)

Have you checked the PH? It should be around 4 - 4.5.

yeah its 4, i have added 2 more buckets of water because of too much salt in the mix.i will upload a photo when its done. if the PH is ok that means im good yes? i just dont know if my solution is ok at the momment.I mean 9 lb of alum in 15 galons of water must be ok
