@charlesdowding Ah yes, for clarity this is veg growing topsoil with 30% mushroom compost. I layered several inches of Champions Blend at the top and my shallow-rooted plants are doing well, but those plants whose roots have now hit the 30% mushroom compost topsoil are all curling :( really sad!

@Lubilu44 That is unknown unfortunately. For low levels of contamination it’s possible to still get a crop however there are no studies done on this affects humans so I would not eat any. This is a huge scandal!

Encouraging news from @DefraGovUK today although the potential ban in 2024 seems a long way away. I’m proud to say we’re taking action now and will no longer be selling peat based compost in our stores, as of the end of this month. @WildlifeTrusts bit.ly/3wh4tlr

My new soil is also contaminated. Why is this being allowed to happen! We have got to fight this @corteva chemical which is EVERYWHERE. I am heartbroken.

Thread: So after being struck with @corteva chemical contamination #aminopyralid in 2020 and spending upwards of £2000 raising up my beds by 1 meter, and filling with 13 tonnes of new soil from a reputable supplier, today I yet again face absolute heartbreak...

When people buy this stuff, quite innocently, they’re unlikely to read the small print which advises against putting grass clippings into compost of their green bin. This and other brands containing pyralids are partly responsible for the heartache of failing crops for so many

If you have experienced tightly curling new growth on crops like tomatoes, beans, potatoes and peas, like this picture, let us know and join us and @charlesdowding in fighting to get #aminopyralid #pyralids banned for good

I took all of these off the shelves and hid them elsewhere, behind other products in the shop and suggest everyone does the same to protect your local gardens and allotments.
