Just typical type 10. If you want faster drying time you could also use "Post Haste" which is used for fence posts.

Aproximately 3:1 Salt to concrete. Add water, stir, pour. Drink another beer, continue until all beer is gone.

So you first combined the concrete powder and the rock salt in approximately 3:1, then you kept adding water and stirring until what kind of consistancy?
