thoughts on soap nuts please
So....has anyone actually used soap nuts? I bought a bag from Binn Inn a few months back. It sat in my laundry for a while until I finally used it having run out of washing powder a few days ago. There are no suds with them so I couldn't really see how the clothes were being washed. I can only assume that the clothes did get washed & I thought the little bag is too small & perhaps too thick all of which can be adjusted but it would be interesting to see how others have found them. cheers…

Hi Jolien,
Yes you need a seeds called Sapindus Mukorossi which is the seeds from the SoapNuts you use for washing. You ccan find all the information on how to grow a tree here: http://www.soapnuts.co.nz/Plant-a-SoapNut-Tree||learn-how-to-grow-your-own-soap/Soapnuts/Grow-a-SoapNuts-Tree-SAPINDUS-mukorossi.html
We have 12 of those trees growing. One is planted in our garden and looking really well. We still have to wait 4 more years until they have fruits on them but fingers crossed and all goes well.
Best regards. The SoapNut Shop
Hi everyone,
