We are heating the house exclusively with wood and I am using the ashes as

a
fertilizer in the garden.


Does any body has an experience., values or quantities to be used??

Thanks

It's best to slake (wet) the ash before use as it is fairly corrosive in the
dry form.
Fairly high in Potassium which aids flowering

Use about 25g per sq.metre
