How to fix this?

[Niklas777]

Hello, I have removed a wardrobe and the wall behind looks like this. Sharp and even the wall's planks are visible at the bottom where there probably was a large baseboard earlier. How do I plaster this? Plasterboard?

The fastest way is to install renovation plasterboard that is 6 mm thick. However, you will encounter issues achieving a neat finish at the top. You can solve this by placing the plasterboard on the entire wall, all the way up to the ceiling.
Alternatively, you can try applying some plaster at the bottom to replace what has disappeared and then skim coat.

Knock off all loose stucco and replaster.

You can run gipsputs, easiest to use.

You can use gypsum plaster, it's the easiest to use.

Do I need to put some kind of mesh? Like chicken wire for reinforcement?

The reeds are the reinforcement...

Reinforces so intensely

The reeds are the reinforcement...

Reinforcing like crazy

He he

Ok so netting is overkill?

 

[hsd]

Mesh is better so if everything is loose it's sensible to use mesh reinforcement
But you'll see that when you start knocking

And how much should I chip? Everything that's loose? And how hard?

Yes, everything that's loose. Don't knock too hard. In the pictures, it looks like it should reach up to the wallpaper edge, but it's hard to judge from just pictures.

Tear down to studs. Drywall and plaster?

 

[Niklas777]

So plaster, and not mortar? Render? Fix? Seems like there are a ton of products. If you have a good link to reasonable material I can buy, I would be grateful.

Probably lime plaster. as someone wrote, gypsum plaster probably works for repairs, easier to work with, but don't use anything harder. Lime plaster is soft and can absorb movements, but at the same time, it's fragile against impacts or repairs with harder materials. That is, repairing with the wrong material and cement plaster will release like a cake when the walls move a little. The reed works fine for plastering, no reason to have anything different... My experiences from similar jobs at home here as an amateur, but read a lot before the repairs...

Gypsum plaster is awesome in many ways, easy to work with, and adheres to most surfaces. Brush off the surface first and moisten with a spray bottle.

What are we talking about in terms of drying times before you can smooth over the plaster?
