I ruined my garden by dumping wood ashes on it,about two years it grew nothing. Wood ash is a good source of potash and a littlr bit spread evenly can actually increase fertility. I have seen this at the farm where,having burned some brush,the next spring the grass grew twice as tall there. However,overloading the soil with potash can ruin its PH level and thus affect its ability to grow plants. Our pioneers used to make their own lye by pouring water over sieves of wood ash. The lye was then used in soap making and as a disinfectant in the chicken house. The brown/amber liquid was a potent form of lye..so be carefull that you spread wood ashes evenly and sparsely. There is no reason why you can't spread some on your lawn,rake up the coal pieces in the spring. Having a field is great,my parents always spread the ashes in the field next to the house.
