I follow a tip from someone else on here and add one or two new nuts to the bag every time I wash
thats what I do too. I'd like to try the powder too, because I often use normal (eco friendly) detergent when I'm too lazy to find the soapnut bag and pop it in hot water to get it started (I wash in only cold)

I like that I don't have to do the final rinse cycle. I just let it do the agitate thing, then spin dry.

I found it made all the hemp nappies and bits that were stiff as boards, really soft (I don't use a dryer). Nothing has not come out clean, but I've not used them on really filthy clothes or pooey nappies....
