Do not use ash from burning trash, cardboard, coal or pressure-treated, painted or stained wood. These substances contain trace elements that can be harmful to many plants when applied in excessive amounts. For example, the glue in cardboard boxes and paper bags contains boron, an element toxic to many plant species at levels higher than that required for normal growth
