Default Old LR

I have about 100 lbs. or so of LR thats been out on my balcony for months now "dry". Basically its been in a dry rubbermaid container.

I want to end up using it again if possible when I set up my new tank.

What would you do to get it live and safe for a tank?

I was thinking of soaking it in RO water for a while and then switching to saltwater. Probably change 100% of the water weekly?

How long do you think it would take to get it cycled again? Will it leach all kinds of phosphates, ect.?
