Wood ash is the powdery residue remaining after the combustion of wood, such as burning wood in a fireplace, bonfire, or an industrial power plant. It is largely composed of calcium compounds, along with other non-combustible trace elements present in the wood, and has been used for many purposes throughout history.
Wood ash has a high pH, usually around 10 to 12, says Chelsea McKinley, plant health specialist at the U.S. Botanic Garden in Washington, D.C. Most plants prefer a soil pH of around 6.5.
