But he mentioned it was at home, and "neighbor kids" might give it away, its not a comp. I and most on here with WSM, and BGE's shut all the vents and they go out pretty quick.
As for the yard, ash when mixed with water is acidic. Thats why ash left in smokers gets wet and results in rust throughs. Acidic can be good for your lawn actually or it could be bad. We spread ash 2-3 times a year around our Azaleas and Rodedendrums, and they are thriving!
