I use the powder every time I do a nappy wash and since I have the RockinGreen washing powder I haven't had to strip wash my son's nappies

. The weather picking up and a new washing machine might have something to do with it too of course. And I've started doing a 'deep rinse' prior to a normal cold washing cycle.
I only do a strip wash when his nappies start to smell which used to be about once a month (for me, a strip wash means: rinse, hot/warm wash without powder, normal cycle with half powder, rinse).
