RE: Hive Garden Question

That's right, rainwater is soft water in itself, and as it also feeds the rivers, I thought we had the same quality in both, but environmental factors do play a part. although I think ash is also good for the soil, as ash used to be sprinkled in the planting hole to keep them healthy.😊

Yes, ash is good for plants, wood ash, I even wrote in earlier posts that we add ash around the plant and on the plant, potatoes in the fight against the potato beetle. But Volcanic ash is not good.
Wood ash contains key plant nutrients, including potassium, calcium, phosphorus and magnesium, as well as trace elements. Potassium, calcium and magnesium are especially useful because they are soluble in water, which means that they act quickly on the soil.
Ash composition:
Potassium (K): Essential for plant growth, flower and fruit development.
Calcium (Ca): Required for the development of cell walls and the absorption of other nutrients.
Phosphorus (P): Key to root development and flowering.
Magnesium (Mg): Constituent part of chlorophyll, required for photosynthesis.
Trace elements: Small but important additions like boron, which are also necessary for plants.
Of course, the quality of ash depends on the type of wood used.
