Bit of a how deep is a hole question but here we go.
Is one bag of postcrete enough to set a H post ?

And yep it's a "how long is a piece of string question"
How long is the post?
How big is the post?
Will there be anything hanging off the post?
Any forces acting on it?

Thanks, good info.
Normal post & panel fence. 2m high.
Looks like one bag should just about cover each post so I'll get a few extra to be covered .
