Earthborn ElementsWashing Soda (1 Gallon), Soda Ash, Sodium Carbonate, Non-Toxic Laundry Booster

Q: Is this for laundry, or do I have to make laundry detergent out of it

If you add 25% Borax, it makes a good laundry soap. Here is what I do to make 5 gallons liquid laundry soap (which will gel when cooled) Boil a large pot of distilled water. Take 1 bar of Zest (or any brand without a lot of chemicals), and shave it down into fine pieces. (I use a cheese grater). Add the fine pieces of bar soap to the water and melt it. Pour the soap water into the 5 gallon bucket. Add 2-3 cups of Washing Soda. Add 1-2 cup Borax. Add 1-2 cup Baking Soda. Mix well. Add more distilled water to fill bucket. I've been using this home made non-toxic laundry soap for years.

Q: has anyone tried using this by itself to replace laundry detergent?

Yes! In an effort to be frugal and eco friendly I started using straight washing soda over 2 years ago. I'm the kind of person who researches everything to death; read the pros and cons of all different ingredients and homemade recipes and decided just to try straight washing soda. No smelly or dingy clothes, though a good spot remover is still necessary. Mind you I'm only washing adult, sometimes lightly soiled clothing so your mileage may vary. I have a top loader so I start the machine on warm, add the washing soda and let it dissolve a bit, then typically switch to cool and add my laundry. I don't have specific measurements to give since I am using a small scoop from my last and final canister of OxiClean Free (not as green as I thought!). Honestly though I'm probably using too much- and it only takes a couple tablespoons- as I read the agitator does most of the work.

Q: If it's so non toxic why the scary warning on the side if you get it on your hands? I'm confused.

It is a strong base. A strong base much like a strong acid can burn you. Though in its powdered form can just be brushed off.

Good product

Great quality! I use this washing soda to make my powdered laundry soap. It is great for what I need it for. It also came sealed very tight so there was no leaking. Just an overall great product.

Caffenol process

Used it for caffenol alternative photography process. Worked well and as it should. No scent. Just washing soda. Perfect for what I needed, haven't used it for laundry but I'm assuming it would work as well.

Terrific

I like the containers. I make my own laundry detergent. This adds a wonderful element to the solution. Then I wash the little buckets and use them for all kids of things.

Best Quality

I have ordered this product at least 4 times now - I absolutely love this! You get a nice size container and well worth the price. I typically only use this and borax for my clothes and they turn out soft and seem to keep our clothes nice and fresh!
