Gypsum nowhere

I've checked every store in my town and surrounding towns for gypsum an it is a bust. I'm assuming due to the season. I've heard people talk about sheet rock or joint compound. That is readily available to me. Are there any other things I could use in my 80/20 poo/Verm mix.

I just got off the phone with Home Depot from another town and it's a no go. I never had this much trouble in the past finding it. I'm just gonna bust up some Sheetrock this time and see how it turns out till I can track some down

Drywall and gypsum board can be 2 different things. I do not trust ALL drywall because of the addition of "fly ash" in some, and others simply using fly ash and a binder. Google fly ash for more info. And yes they make drywall out of straight fly ash and binders with no gypsum whatsoever. You have to read labels and do not trust any product until you are 100% sure, and you must do this every purchase.
Bottom line on drywall, EVERYONE should be aware of the "fly ash" problem we have in this country. The EPA barely recognizes its hazards, so the power plants simply sell it off to be packed into whatever shit that people will buy and not notice. We are paying for services who then turning around and poisoning us.
TL:DR Drywall does not always contain gypsum.

The drywall Brandname I have found is "gypsum products". All it says is that it is composed of a fire resistant gypsum

aco or ace are the only 2 stores that I can find 40lb bags of quality gypsum when it's in season. I've gotten home depot's brand and it made my sub muddy and it smelled different.

Plain American made cheap dry wall without mold treatment. You can get small pieces made for patching holes . Lowes or Home depot can order garden gypsum for you but there's a 90% chance the employees are going to try to be lazy and say they can't .You can probably go online and them ship to store and avoid $1 per pound shipping cost.

I used to build houses so iv got tons of dry wall laying around. it works great just make some slits on the beck throw it in a pillow case and hit it with a hammer until the paper falls off then break it up with a rolling pin and toss it in a blender. the blender should bring any left over paper to the surface so it can be removed. its a pain in the ass but it works and if you live close to a construction site there are bound to be a few off cuts laying around for free.

just order from outgrow. Reasonable price. A single bag will be enough for at least 10 grows.
