Perhaps it's the subjects, content, aim, and, dare I say slightly higher minded and thoughtful person this site attracts that renders it of little interest to the bottom dwelling trolls that frequent the web and other sites - there is much lower hanging fruit for them.
I'd like to believe that there are a lot of people out there who are fed up and see how society is in decline (see reference to the Romans above) yet have enough hope to to put the work in to improve their little corner of the planet and thus the lives of those around them
(whether they know it or not).
Yes decency, respect and a willingness to learn, share and improve.
PERMIES gives all of us an incredible opportunity to do good that I'd like to think is not lost on anyone who frequents this oasis.
Luvya!

Excellent discussion - tomatoes in winter NOT from Mexico!! wow!

Should have been clearer.
Wood ash does contain a small amount of potasium (potash) near 10% depending on the type of wood burned. But generally it is not considered the same thing.
There are many sources for potasium.

Thanks,
