Who Wins

Pre-6, you win this lane: your plants out-trade Soraka's healing at early levels, your E root on an immobile Ashe is nearly guaranteed to land, and your level 2 spike with plants is stronger than anything the enemy duo can answer with.
Post-6, the lane is more even because Ashe's R gives her a global engage tool that punishes you for overextending, and Soraka's R removes your kill pressure on Ashe when she is low.

Place seeds in the brush and in Ashe's farming path to force her to either take plant damage or give up CS, then use E to root her when she steps up — a rooted Ashe with no dash is a free kill setup for Jinx's Chompers.
Save your R for when both enemies are grouped or when Ashe is rooted, as the knockup into Jinx's follow-up is your highest-damage window.

You should not roam early because your plant setup in lane is your primary value and leaving Jinx alone against Ashe's W slow is risky.
Post-6, if you have shoved the wave and Jinx is safe, a roam to mid with your R is viable since your ultimate covers a large area and can turn a mid skirmish, but only if Ashe is not in a position to R your mid laner immediately after.

Do not waste your E on Soraka when Ashe is the primary target — Soraka will simply walk out of your plant range and heal, while Ashe rooted is a kill.
Never stand in a straight line between Ashe and Jinx during trades because Ashe's W will slow you and Soraka's Q will hit you, making you take full trade damage while your plants are on cooldown.
