Old,
I put my ash in piles, then when I get angry, I go to the garden and kick some ash:)

I used a post hold digger and made 12 inch diameter holes. Planted my tomatoes and peppers in the holes about 8 inches below grade. It takes a long time for water doesn't soak in to soil. To I fill the holes with water, like having a water barrel. Had a good garden, even though we had an extended dry spell.

I would add a little fertilizer and lime every few weeks.

If I'm not mistaken, pot ash is in fertilizer. I would add potash to mulch pile and mix it in with loader. Then use a little mulch around new plants.

George
