[QUOTE=ghostguy6;3751772]As much as RavYak and I disagree, this time he is right. Ash when mixed with water forms Lye (sodium hydroxide), which has a very basic ph of 13. While the ash pile from a single fire wont change the ph of a water body a few hundred ash piles could have an effect on smaller ponds. If you google ph ranges for fish you will find there is a very narrow window before they become affected.
Mods, why hasn't Tyler been banned? Almost every post he makes seems to be directed at someone in a negative way. AO would be far better off without him.
Activated charcoal is used as filters, regular charcoal can filter out particles and some toxin but also effects the ph level as it breaks down. Once it breaks down it just releases those toxins back into the surrounding area anyways.[/QUOTE
That's what I wondered.... It's always a mouthy statement, and you shouldn't post anything without a study to back you up. Just bring a burn barrel with you. It's just cleaner and people burn wood with nails in it, it could give someone a flat tire if it was covered by a skiff of snow.
