Wood ash is a very useful fertilizer, but some crops are contraindicated for ash feeding.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication Belnovosti, an agronomist and landscape designer, tells us which plants should never be fertilized with ash.
What crops are not fed with ash
Since ash reduces soil acidity, ash fertilizers are contraindicated for plants that like acidic soil.
In particular, it is strictly forbidden to fertilize watermelons, radishes and sorrel with ash.
In the garden, you should not feed camellia, hydrangea, calendula, lavender and azalea with ash.
Coniferous plants also do not like ash: thuja, juniper, spruce, fir, larch.
Earlier, the expert told whether it is possible to feed peppers with succinic acid.
