What Wood Ashes Contain and Potash Percentages
The Progressive Farmer notes potash content in wood ashes varies by wood type and storage. Pine ashes are low, hardwoods higher but weathered by rain. Estimated potash ranges from 2 percent in pine to 5 to 18 percent in good hard ashes, with about 35 percent lime and traces of phosphorus. At half a cent per bushel, using ashes up to a ton an acre may be economical.
