Ash from wildfires is made up of organic matter, consisting of the basic nutrients that plants require. Plants absorb the ash and it’s actually a great source of fertilizer. Although the air quality is poor in Mendocino County right now, our gardens are going to love the additional nutrients.

While thunder and lightning can be scary during fire season, thunderstorms are a gardener’s friend.

About 80% of our atmosphere is nitrogen. Nitrogen which the atmosphere isn’t available for plants to absorb; however, the energy caused by lightning converts it into a form that can be absorbed by plants. The science behind the transformation is a conversion of atmospheric nitrogen and oxygen into nitric oxide (NO), which then oxides into nitrogen dioxide (NO2), then into nitric acid (HNO3) which can then be deposited onto the earth’s surface through rains. Lightning and thunderstorms can provide gardens with lots of nitrogen that encourage growth in plants.
