Re: Wood ashes
Sorry, I can't help on the PH but you should see an improvement in the plants you spread this on.

Re: Wood ashes
Wood ash is usually very alkaline. Excellent in acid soil but neutral or above soil it probably shouldn't be used.
Re: Wood ashes
Thank's Bob... I can use a little higher PH so no problem

Re: Wood ashes
I'm thinking beets and root crops like wood ash, but I better go look that up. Yes, but not potatoes or blueberry bushes.
