What to use the ash for ????

[csservices]

I've spread mine round the borders in the garden and on the veg patch, doesnt seem to be doing any harm and apparently onions are very fond of it

Great on leafy veg and tomatoes, do not put on potatoes as it makes the soil limey which can give them scab. The potash in woodash is highly soluble so if it has been sitting out at all chances are the potash will be gone, best use it fresh.

If you find yourself on a boat that has sprang a small leak/weep pouring ash down the outside (above the leak) will slow or stop it as the ash gets drawn into the gap. Probably useless info but it does work.

A local potter has ours for hs kilm, use it on a damp rag to clean your burners glass, give it to your chickens for a dust bath, but best of all take it to the pub and say it's your favourite auntie and watch everyone squirm and offer to buy you a pint!!!

wood ash is good for the garden but if you have been burning pallets the preservative used on the pallets is harmful to health. Put it on the veg garden, then eat the veg and it gets into your body, it is harmfull to you. Burn pallets which is not recommended then dispose of the ash in your bin not on your garden.

If you've got any fat to go with it, you could make your own soap...
