@silverdew.gardens: Wood ash.. a great free fertiliser for the garden! Full of potassium and calcium, it helps enrich the soil around hungry plants as well as deterring pests such as slugs and snails! What’s not to love, so easy to use! I mix mine with a bit of multi purpose compost and mulch hungry plants such as roses 🌹 #fertilizerapplication #rosegarden🌹 #gardeningtips #ukgardener #mulchlife
Can I just use the ash from the wood burner in my living room and use that?? Or does it need to be specific in some kind of way?

Wood ash is such an underrated free resource - brilliant for raising pH on acid soils and the potassium boost for fruiting plants is really valuable. Great reminder to collect it from the wood burner rather than waste it!

Shouldn’t ash from a fireplace rest for a year or so before being used in the garden?

Wood ash is such a brilliant free resource - the potassium is especially good for flowering plants and fruiting veg. Really satisfying to turn something from the fire pit into genuine garden gold!

I have so much of it as we have two log burners I throw it on my massive compost heaps and it works wonders. Also been making nettle tea and banana peel fertiliser all great free products
