in your particular case you compounded the contamination using that contractor bag - garbage bags are manufactured with unqualified poly & chems and are usually sprayed with a solution to odorize them and repel insects/pests ... I wouldn't even water my garden with H2O that came out of a fresh garbage bag ....
