When sourcing sand from anywhere really, it would be a good idea to wash it, to get those fine particles out. The way I do it is I fill a couple of inches of sand in a bucket, fill it up and empty it several times while stirring, letting the sand sink before I empty the dirty water. When the water in the bucket is clear the sand is clean. There are probably better ways to wash the sand but that's how I do it. It gets tedious with large amounts but it beats cloudy water.
EDIT: Actually I'm not familiar with Quikcrete, but reading the name now if it's some sort of concrete compound then I'm not sure any amount of washing would fix the problem
I understand about the washing. And the name Quickcrete is just the brand. Thanks for the concern and the good input. That’s what I like about MFK is all the help you can get.
