Wondering now if wood ash (mainly from cherry/maple and maybe some horse chestnut) would do any good or do harm? I would save it and put it around the drip line in the spring.
I use a lot of wood ash around my trees. Basically everything from the fireplace goes out to the garden/orchard, and we burn every day because of the high electricity prices in Europe. We have relatively acidic soils, so I spread it all over the lawn, vegetable garden, orchard, flower garden, etc. It seems to go into the soil VERY fast, and it is said to contain a lot of nutrients in small quantities, as well as calcium carbonate. I honestly can't get enough ash, but my soils are sour, and we get an inordinate amount of rain.
