Pot Filling ChartPrep For Use: Wet product with warm water a few hours prior to planting or soil blocking. This allows the soil to stabilize and prevents soil from washing out of pots or trays.
Handling: Avoid drastic changes in moisture/saturation. Store under cover, out of direct sunlight. Protect from weed seed, petroleum products, and other contaminants.
Supplemental Fertility: Usually, no additional fertility is required. If roots have filled the container and fertility is needed, top-dress with Compost Plus and water in.
Storage and Shelf Life: Store in a neutral environment which encourages moisture retention and protects from UV light. For optimal performance of living soil we suggest using it within 8-12 months from date of purchase.

Great resource for the investor.
Format: Paperback
If you're new to real estate investing this book is a great resource to understand the process and flow of renting to Housing Choice Voucher clients. It's written in a relaxed and semi-autobiographical style.
On that note, the mentality of the author can be off-putting for some. It can be slightly abrasive and the matter-of-fact way of talking about the clients with very minimal filtering is a throwback to a less compassionate society. Don't be turned off by this though. It's necessary to read his experiences because, if you decide to go this route, people will damage your property. They will stain your carpet and put holes in the walls. The doors will get slammed and end up being off kilter after a bit. Don't get frustrated by it. It's the price of doing business.
Don't rely on this as your only resource. It's broad ranging but not always detail oriented. Join sites like Bigger Pockets and find a mentor to help guide you through the process. This is one of the best ways to guarantee a financial future while also providing necessary shelter for low income citizens.

Insightful, funny, but a bit unforgiving
This book is an absolutely no holds barred guide for preparing a current/future Section 8 Landlord for difficult situations and tenants. The authors own over 300 rental properties and prefer to remove anything and absolutely everything not strictly required for passing a property inspection. This means ripping out things like screen doors, washing machine hookups, dishwashers, etc. Following their method, you end up with a relatively spartan property that easily passes inspection. They're a bit light on the empathy side, but overall, this is still excellent business advice. The writer is also really funny and some of the anecdotal stories are great. Definitely worth the money!
The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars is the Diversified Real Estate Investor Group papers (written by James M. Bennett) in Chapter 18 are incredibly difficult to read on a kindle (see the picture). Otherwise, this is a 5 star book full of excellent advice.

Nuts and Bolts of Section 8 for Landlords
Format: Paperback
Learned so much from this book. Lots of practical information and
entertaining to read. I bought all of the books by this team of do-it-
your-selfers. They even include access to a rental contract they
advertise as ironclad.
