just wondering if the ashes and charcoal are ok for the compost or
whether i'm better off just putting them in the bin.
Ashes from a wood fire are, in the garden, effectivley the same as lime.



Or potash?


It depends on what was burnt.
Ashes from coal cannot be used.
Trees, news paper ashes are OK
