Watched an old fellow one time plant a huge garden of potatoes long ago, no motorized equipment and no rototiller. Dug the furrows with a hoe and then he went down in his cellar and brought up a big bucket full of wood ashes and spread along the bottom of the furrows, then set out his cut potatoes(chitting) and covered them. Had the best potatoes ever. People need to get back to some of the old ways of doing things. They might learn something! Also, wood ashes from my pellet stove work great for potash.

Sometimes people make their own charcoal in simple trenches. It's pretty easy, you just dig a trench, fill it with brush, burn it and douse it well when the wood is charred to the extent you want. I bring this up because I'm trying some new beds where I dug a small trench, burned wood in it, and then after gathering most of the char built a sort of hugel bed on top of that. My idea is that any ash left in there from letting some of the wood burn completely will be in the soil for the plants to use. I also think that having some char in the trench as well as "normal" wood hugel-style should be a benefit as well, for drainage and the usual reasons people like biochar, so I'm working with that too after innoculating the charcoal.

Hi. I am a farmer and I live on the other side of the globe and soils here often have pH values above 8. It is like a continuing struggle to keep the soil fertile. Years ago I also used wood ash, a boat load of it and that piece of land is right now significantly the most fertile of all. However my method differed and I used sulfuric acid when mixing potash in water. It made the mixture sizzle for a bit. I also used humic acid, compost, urine, bone and blood meals from a nearby slaughterhouse. Not only I had to use exactly zero amounts of chemical commercial fertilizers I also grew lush vegetables and had abundant harvests. Recently I have started to use chicken and dairy manures again as I see the soil losing fertility. I also learnt about AEC which is similar to CEC (anion and cation exchange capacity of a soil). AEC is never talked about for monetization reasons probably. Clay or other soil particles alone do not have enough capacity to hold on to all the positively and negatively charged ions of minerals. It is imperative to have a lot of organic matter in the soil so that the ions and any sort of fertilizer you add to your soil can "stick" inside of it instead of getting washed down with water. Just wanted to share my experience.

@donberry6079 Жыл бұрын

I must beg to differ sir. My calculations show approx 3 tbsp/gal water concentration (conc) has 1 gal ash/5 gal water = 20% ash 0.2*16 cup/gal. = 3.2 cups ash/gal conc. = 0.2 cup ash/cup of conc. to make final mix, add 1 cup of conc to 1 gal water. This makes 1 + 16 = 17 cups mix. The amount of ash is still 0.2 cups. Thus, we have now 0.2 cups ash/17 cups water. Converting: (0.2 cups ash/17 cups water) * (16 cups water/gal water) * (16 tbsp ash/cup ash) = 3.01176 tbsp of ash/gal water. Round off to 3 tbsp/gal water. Interesting math problem. I agree a 1 gal mixture is easier to handle and does not tie up a 5 gal bucket for months.

@JakobKobberholm 6 ай бұрын

@ry6079 1 part ash to 5 parts water = 6 parts in total, making it 1/6 (16.6667%) ash, not 1/5 (20%). He then goes on to say 1 cup per gallon (In his example it is 2.5 cups per 2.5 gallon), so in this case, the cups are included in the total (it only holds 2.5 gallons, not 2.5 gallons + 2.5 cups). This means the resulting mixture is 1/16 concentrate (not 1/17). So it's 16.6667% (by volume) in the concentrated mix and then diluted to 1/16 (6.25%) of that, to a total of 1.04% ash to water (by volume). I don't normally work with imperial units, so I let Google do the last part. It claims there are 16 US tablespoons in a US gallon, meaning 1.04% of a gallon is 2.6624 tbsp.

Native Americans used to burn open areas to maintain grasslands in the fall in many parts of Montana before the Cattle and sheep ranchers came in and chased the natives away. This made the grasses grow stronger the next year and enticed elk, deer and bison to move into these hunting grounds. Native Americans where not vegetarians, and hadn't learned to raise grains and fence in land like the advanced white men had. If you want to raise a civilization of sheeple, just feed them mostly grains.

We have a serious potato scab problem and are working hard to bring the pH down to 5.3, at which scab becomes inactive. It's taking us three years, using elemental sulfur. That's the one place I would never use wood ash water, as it does raise the pH of the soil. I've experimented with this. Higher pH is just fine for most of the garden. It also reduces clubroot problems in the brassicas.

@dogslobbergardens6606 2 жыл бұрын

Straight wood ash is strongly alkaline. Dumping a lot of it in one place can indeed cause pH problems. If you REALLY overdo it, you can straight up kill plants with too much wood ash. You can use straight wood ashes on purpose to kill weeds; after a couple good rains or waterings it will be diluted out and your soil will be ready to grow something else. Diluting the ash as shown here adds moderates amounts of the minerals several times a year instead of all at once and avoids burning the plants. I suspect that by adding it all at once just in the autumn as you described, it's getting diluted by rain/snow naturally over the winter, so there's not a problem. If it's working for you, keep doing that :)

I burn the pallets and free cardboard in business dumpsters. Use a big bonfire. Then scoop up with a shovel and sift the nails out. I just dont use ash as a water fertalizer, i just shake it on straight, rained on or not. Ive got about a wheelbarrow full of ash sitting in the burn pit right now. So i definitely know thats an easy way to get it. I would try swamp water tea instead for a feralizer instead. Its basically all the weeds you pull from the garden, and all plsnt trimmings, in a bucket filled with water on a fish tank bubbler. Used straight. It contains growth hormone enzymes from the weeds, minerals, and larger animos, and nitrogen from the bubbler. Its every bit as effective as miracle grow when applied daily. Just be careful to use the bubbler, it works if you dont, but creates a deadly superbug yeast that could kill a woman from sepsis via Urinary Tract Infection. And doesnt wash off with ordinary antibacterial soap. Gotta use better than dial. Men wont get a uti from it, or a least nothing dangerous, dunno why.

Do you know how to make a fire? If you put bones in the fire you get more calcium carbonate from the ashes. Straight wood ashes give you potassium carbonate and a bit of hydroxide. Depending on what you add to the fire you can get other things as well. 🤓🍻

Small notice, ash composition depends on burning temperature. (I found it in scientic article.) Low temperature fire means most of potassium stays in the ash. However with high temperature of fire potassium eventualy evaporates with the smoke leaving behind mostly a calcium. Potassium is major fertiliser element. Well, burning evaporates all the sulphur and nitrogen but ash have benefits on its own. It helps with a snails, helps to build up soil matrix, improves excessive nitrogen from compost alone.

@@gardenlikeaviking honestly man, it was incredible. We did some different control groups based on the different organic nutrients used to fertilize. Everything that got potash water every 2 weeks after blooming was triple the yield. The best regiment we found was to feed the initial growth with chicken manure water, I think it's around 4 1 2, then once the flowers begin to form, water with a heavily diluted liquid potash fertilizer every 2 weeks, with the week in between watering without nutrients. We harvested about 7000lbs of Blue Sapphire potatoes, by hand and this was our first year on freshly cut forest. Your video was of great utility to us, thank you

Good video, congratulations !!! The only minimum negative aspect of this type of fertilizer as well as with the use of calcium alone, is that it speeds up a little the mineralization of organic matter of the soil because microorganisms which "eat" the O.M. are much more active when they get this kind of fertilizers or just calcium. But that is not an important issue if your soil has more than 5% of O.M. Blessings !!!

When you mix wood ash with urine, it converts the urine to urea and prevents it from converting to ammonia. They make synthetic urea from natural gas and it’s found in most commercial fertilizers. You can also mix urine with wood ash, allow the urine to evaporate (dry) and you end up with a dry fertilizer that can be easily stored. .
