If you are switching from a clean rinsing detergent, you may have little to no trouble switching to Rockin' Green. If you are using something like Tide however, you may experience some problems as the built up soap is drawn to the surface of your diapers. Even diapers that appeared to be clean before switching, may suddenly become stinky the first few washes with Rockin' Green. This is totally normal, and will improve with continued use. To speed up the process, try Rockin' an overnight soak with 3 Tbs of Rockin' Green followed by several washes with nothing. Repeat the process until your diapers are fresh smelling again. Will Rockin’ Green work on my Hard Water? Soft Water? Yes. Rockin’ Green was designed with hard water problems in mind, so even if you have had trouble finding things that work in the past, Rockin’ Green will surprise you.

What’s up? Sometimes, it takes a few washes to experience the full benefit of Rockin’ Green. With each wash, Rockin’ Green will work to pull out the trapped in detergent, grime and minerals that are inside your diapers and inserts, which can temporarily cause stink issues or even repelling for some people. If you experience this problem, we would suggest you Rock a Soak overnight and then do several washes with no soap added to flush out all the gunk. Repeat the process until your diapers are clean smelling, and then continue to use Rockin’ Green at the recommended dosage for day to day washings. Will the scented oils cause problems with my diapers? There is approximately 10 drops of natural fragrance oil per 45 load batch so the amount of oil in each load is negligible. The oils used in Rockin’ Green are 100% natural, so the risk of irritation is much less than other scented products on the market. Will Rockin’ Green work on my HE Washer? My Frontloader? Absolutely!

Every day I get emails from customers regarding the right wash routine for their HE machines. Sometimes it takes a bit of trial and error to figure out the right wash routine for your cloth diapers, but with a little bit of persistence most people LOVE their HE machines for cloth. A Word About HE Machines and Ammonia… The main thing that I would recommend when using a front loader, is to make sure that you are getting plenty of water through your diapers during the inital rinse/wash prior to adding the soap. Some of the most successful wash routines involve a long cold wash before adding the soap. You can also consult the Rockin’ a Frontloader Database- for more information on specific wash routines for your front loader. *You can also try the towel trick- by throwing in a few towels along with your diapers to trick your washer into using more water. Here’s a great article from Bummis.com regarding front loaders and ammonia problems Your diapers should smell clean after they are washed. If they smell like urine, then it is clear that they have a urine residue. If they smell clean after they are washed and then like ammonia after the first pee, then it is probable that they have a urine residue. How do I know I have a urine residue?
Where does the “stink” come from? When a wet cloth diaper smells really bad, it is most likely due to an overproduction of ammonia. In the body, ammonia is converted to urea and excreted. Once the urine is released, the urea begins converting back to ammonia, so some ammonia smell is perfectly normal. Lingering urea in the diaper and certain types of bacteria can speed up and increase the production of ammonia. So if you smell an unusually strong odor of ammonia after your baby pees, you most likely have a biological residue in your diaper. This residue is most commonly caused by not using enough water to wash and rinse diapers clean. It can also be caused by not using enough detergent. Detergent is what enables water to enter the fibres of the cloth and release its soil (by decreasing the surface tension of the water). If there is too little water (or detergent), the urine is diluted, but not rinsed away. It is recycled in the wash and dries onto the fabric, remaining there in the form of residues.
