If it's so urgent, why not invest and pay the extra price for a quick screed that can be tiled in a few days?

It can be dried in a short time with a construction blow dryer and a suitable screed heater. However, the current outdoor temperature and humidity also play a role.

Finally, humidity is simply measured in several places.

And it's better to wait one week too long than to wait right after maximum residual humidity is reached.

Most people look at screeding as a kind of break from interior work and then devote themselves to other things (exterior installations, garage, patio, or any kind of sampling).
