i do not plant my bananas in wood ash, i have wood ash beside and below them. i have over 20 mats i dug a hole and burned about a pickup load and half of wood with about 17 varieties planted above that. my property has a ph level of 7, a meter beside those bananas shows a ph level of 7. i have a number of existing mats with post holes filled with ash running a 7 not in the ash, in the ash 7. i am also putting wood ash on the side of pots with excellent results. this is picture that is an extreme amount of wood ash. the second picture is of 2 sh3640 bananas, the blue pot is the one in the 1st picture, the banana in the blackpot is without wood ash. the 3rd picture is the same two 2 months later.
