Are ashes too basic for compost piles? I've heard they are since
people used them in the past to make the alkaline part of soaps. just

I've heard master gardeners discourage the use of ashes in composting
and gardening.
Hmmm. I don't think I'd respect anyone who said not to use ashes in the

huge quantities.
Ash, soot and biochar are all good things to use in the garden.
