Poisoned Compost in the Home Garden

It’s been a cool start to spring and many of my seedlings seemed to be lagging for it. Some of them didn’t germinate at all and others were slow and sometimes unhealthy. Then I came across Charles Dowding’s pieces on aminopyralid herbicide and what it looked like in plants. I’m devastated to report that my many of my plants have now succumbed to it. There’s no denying the tell-tale characteristics.

Not all is doom and gloom though — I have an exciting announcement and have had good news all around in the past week. There’s also plenty of edibles growing in the home garden and I share what’s growing well, and pull up some delicious radishes while I’m at it.

Questions for you:
Have you heard of aminopyralid herbicide before and has it affected your garden?

What would you do with the tomatoes in the planter and what would you put in their place?
