Hello everyone,

just wondering if the ashes and charcoal are ok for the compost or

whether
i'm better off just putting them in the bin.


Yes, just mix it in with all the other stuff.

I also scatter it on the garden and around the citrus.


I apread my wood ash on the lawn today. A decent source of P & K and has a
liming effect.
