Johnnie,
The walls on the house I'm building were poured solid and they appeared "moist" and wet to the touch for about two weeks after the pour. I think it was a slow curing in the high Florida humidity until the concrete reached the 27 day cure time.
I waited until after they appeared dry to do any furring, drywall, etc. and haven't had any trouble with them.
Hope this helps.
Mike
