Did it seem to not get your clothes clean after a while? I've been using the same recipe for over a year and it worked beautifully until just a week ago. I noticed that our clothes were starting to smell like they hadn't been washed! I tried to use our Allen's Naturally a time or two and they still smell funky. Erg. I don't overload the washing machine so I don't think that's it and I wash clothes almost daily. Is there any way to fix the recipe so it works well again or should I go buy some detergent from the store?
We've been using 1 bar of fels naptha, 1 cup of washing soda, and 1 cup of borax and putting in 1-2 heaping teaspoons per load.
