Nice idea. I have awhile before the weather breaks but I will start my seeds very soon. Onion plants are ordered. Garlic looks to have done very well through the winter

I have put wood ash in our gardens and not had any problem. I would think if it's an area that is planted every year it would benefit from it.
I think cucumbers will grow out of earwax and toe cheese! They seem to be real hardy for me anyway.
We don't buy soil testers for PH balance an all that.
So I don't know how acidic the soil is or isnt.
We just follow a few simple rules. Rotate crops like tomatoes every two years, and put the shit, or any other goodies we come by in the soil.

Mrs Inor got some pretty cool planters this year for tomatoes. They look like heavy canvas bags, complete with handles and everything. But they have a round bottom and look like they are treated to retain the water. They are about 18 inches in diameter and maybe about 20 inches deep. They were cheap as hell - maybe $4-$6 each. If they work, we will get a bunch more for next year.
P.S. I went into Tucson today to see my mom and it was already 85 there! Where we live it was "only" about 75. So I think spring has sprung in the desert south-west.
