Finally got a homemade detergent that works
Woohoo...3 years of trying and I found one they works!!!!
Equal parts (1cup) of washing soda, borax, sun cleaner (would leave out if I did not have crazy messy kids), and powder calgon 1 grated bar of dr. Bronners I have tried every liquid and powder recipe...I think the calgon was the key with my hard water!!!!! No fading and gets stuff clean! Advertisement |

Re: Finally got a homemade detergent that works
This sounds like a great "recipe"! Thanks for posting, I have really hard water too and was wondering how these homemade ones would work for us.

Re: Finally got a homemade detergent that works
curious about the calgon? I make a similar laundry soap always using dr. Bronners but haven't heard of calgon. I sometime add a 1/2 cup of baking soda also

We have hard water, which is why I add calgon.

Re: Finally got a homemade detergent that works
I read this as "deodorant" and was like what the heck is she putting borax on her skin for. Haha
Where do you get the colgan powder? We have hard water and the homemade detergents do not work.
