Default Re: Hemp or Bamboo?

I'm the same as pp mentioned, hemp for day and bamboo for night.
Bamboo is fluffier,whiter and more absorbant, bulkier and takes longer to dry, whereas hemp is stiffer, browner, trimmer but dries much quicker.

We have only a few bamboo nappies and heaps of hemp. The hemp is definitely smellier and we've got some holes in our workhourse nappies. The bamboo seems really absorbent but takes much longer to dry.

I like having a mix of both
