Small part of a project still tacky

Newbie here that needs advice. I’m brand new to working with resin but recently bought a silicone mold of a planter and made my first project yesterday. Overall I’m proud of it, though I definitely learned things I could do better.

During mixing I spilled a little so when I poured it in the mold I was a little short. I quickly made another batch and prayed the color would match (it did).

Here’s the weird part: the entire piece cured perfectly except one spot on the bottom that is tacky( second pic). At first I thought the second batch wasn’t mixed well, but it’s only this one spot and the excess resin left in the cup cured perfectly.

Is this something that will take more time to cure? If not what are my options? The good thing is it’s on the bottom of the planter but that means it’ll stick to whatever surface I put it on. Any advice is appreciated.
