gap under baseboard

I'm not sure if this post is in the right place or not but maybe someone can help me anyway. What size gap do I need to leave under the baseboards to make room for carpet?

texturizing a wall

S

I need to texturize and paint some new drywall. I plan on getting a drywall hopper and blowing it on myself. I've never done it before and I need a few hints to make it look as professional as possible. 1) Are the hoppers relatively easy to use and do they come with different nozzles for varied textures (coarser for the ceiling)? 2) Should I texturize the drywall first or prime and seal it first? 3) Do I use regular drywall mud to fill the hopper? If so, what consistency do I make it? Any helpful hints would be great!!
