You can wash all your nappies in together, the colours won't run.

I've only ever washed on cold. You don't need to use hot water if you hang them in the sun. :thumbsup: But if it's raining and I'm going to use the dryer, I do a hot wash. (actually I do a short cold wash to get them 'clean' then do a longer hot wash.)

If you have any bamboo or hemp nappies wash them at least 3 times to increase the absorbancy. They'll reach maximum absorbancy after 8-10 washes.
Pockets only need to be washed once.

You can use ANYTHING to stuff your pocket nappies old handtowels, microfibre cleaning cloths, cut up terry flats... yes you can use your hemp booster even though it has snaps.. makes no difference to the absorbancy.

What kind of Green Kids have you got? A funtime or an anytime? The Anytimes work well when boosted overnight.
I've heard that Mandy Macs work well overnight.
