Hi, I have heard on various occasions that using wood ash for fertilizer works good but I have never tried it , I have used all organic fertilizers like molasses , epsom salts, ext , just wanted others in sites
Topping soil with wood ash?

Sure. I've used it in my vegetable garden, compost bin, and just sprinkled it in the yard here and there with good results.

I grow my gourd patch over brushpile ashes each year. They like ash, but you can get too much. I have 6 Filipino gourds, and the 2 in the middle where the ashes were thickest were a good ways behind the other 4.
