DIY chain B&Q has withdrawn part of its plant food range after a test by Which? Gardening magazine found it was contaminated.
A trial by the magazine found using Organic Living Tomato Food had a similar effect on plants to using weed killer and tests on the product found it had been contaminated with a herbicide
