Homemade All Natural Dishwashing Detergent That Actually Works! | HOMEGROWN HOPES | DIY

- Homemade all-natural dishwashing detergent is a simple DIY that can be whipped up in less than 2 minutes. This recipe uses a few simple ingredients and costs way less than most of the natural options you find in stores and actually works.
I’ve definitely bought “natural” cleaners and detergents before that didn’t actually do the job. Mama is busy. Mama doesn’t want to wash her dishes before she washes her dishes. Ya feel me?
That’s why I like this recipe. I’ve tried several, and this one actually cleans your dishes without leaving streaks and stuck-on food.
Now, that’s doesn’t mean that you can leave a casserole dish “soaking” in the sink for a couple of days, then let it dry out with all the crusty bits still on, then stick it in the dishwasher and think that this powder is going to do the job that you should’ve done when you left it in the sink 2 days ago…or so I’ve heard.
I’d never leave a dirty dish in the sink that long.
Gross…..
Now that we've gotten that out of the way...

wow this is a great way to make detergent without buying all the branded chemicals love it
Yes! I feel like it can be super overwhelming when you start reading the ingredients list on your products, so this was a pretty simple swap that wasn't overly stressful :P
Thank you!
i just fell in love
Love this recipe!!! The lemon helps cut the hardness of water and will help films from depositing on dishes I will definitely try this
Thank you! Hope you love it.
Wow thank you so much :)
You're welcome!
thanks for sharing
Hej. I found your dishwasher detergent recipe on your blog and watched the video. - Love the video! But had a hard time hearing your voice. Maybe try lowering the volume of your background music next time? Otherwise really cool! Keep on sharing your amazing videos! Greetings from Germany and God bless!
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Hello. I am new to your channel. This is an interesting option for dishwasher detergent. I was wondering if you have noticed any corrosion in the washer from the salt ingredient, and also if this mix keeps the dishwasher clean too? Thanks.
I have been using it for several years and haven't noticed any issues with corrosion.
Welcome to the channel!
It seems like a great recipe, I've got to try it. I wonder can I substitute orange oil for lemon
Absolutely! Orange oil would be a great substitute.
Tea tree oil
Yes you can add lemon, it works like vinegar/rinsing agent for glassware.
I don't know about the consistency though, as this one seems to be like a powder version. In many other recipes you'll find there's lemon, but some in tablet form
I don't get it. Grease has fatty Acids. They breaker doen when using either Baking soda or vinagar. But when using both and acid (either cítric acid or vinegar) and an alkaline (Baking soda), Will they not just react with each other and loose their effectiveness alltogether??? Is it more the warm Water of teh dishwasher itself that does most of the work of removing Grease and stains? If using this Kind of natural dish Washington soap for hand washing, isnt the main purpose to just remover grease? Because Water and scrubbing Will get rid of most of the stains and food. Would using only vinegar with lemon oil work? Vinegar to remover grease aided with warm Water, it also work to disinfectants a little, plus the scrubbing and warm Water, and the oíl just for scent. Wouldn't that work just as well with much less ingredients? Any thoughts are welcome from more experienced natural life seekers. Thank you
What brand of washing soda do you recommend?
I've only ever used Arm & Hammer, just because that's easy for me to grab at my local grocery, but there are lots of great brands online.
Looks great ❤
Where do i get washing soda?
Thanks! I recently updated the post with a link to purchase the ingredients. You can also find it here amzn.to/44NX5jW
Thank you sweetie
Recipe please
Hello, I made dishwash powder exactly like you told , it seems that dishes washing ok, just the table knifes and spoons are with some kind " Milkish coat" . I was them with hot water and then they are shiny again... Why is that happening, does the powder reacts with steel?
Hmm, I also. have stainless steel knives, but haven't had this issue. You could try using white vinegar as a rinse agent.
@@homegrownhopesyup. That’s what also do; we have done so for years. The white vinegar also disinfects your dishes AND…keeps your dishwasher mold and mildew free at all times. I highly recommend it.
😊
AMEN
I tried a similar recipe and my dishes had a white residue on them. It is difficult to remove… is the salt doing this… have you experienced this?
I haven't personally, but I've read some troubleshooting suggestions.....Try adding white vinegar as the rinse aid. I also read that running a self cleaning cycle on the washer itself, as well as cleaning the food trap in the bottom can help.
Our dishwasher has two places for detergent. One is behind a little door that apparently opens up during a second cycle and the other is just open so that it dumps it in when you close the door. Do you put the tablespoon of detergent in both of those?
I wish that I could give an informed tip on this but unfortunately, I don't have this type of washer. Maybe you can experiment and come back to share your results with other followers who may be running into the same question!
I only did the one cup that opens first space.. I use white vinegar in the rinse cycle thing. Use no lemon oil.
What is "washing soda"? Don't know of it in my country.
You can read the full description of the ingredients in my blog post. I also have links to purchase there. It's just too much to add every detail to CZcams :). shorturl.at/jvvcG
First, thank you. Secondly, I followed the recipe to a “T” and the glassware is coming out cloudy. And we’re already using vinegar as our jet dry. 😢 Any suggestions?
Hi Daniel, I haven't had this issue myself, but I have been researching possible causes and the advice given by many is that the machine itself might need a deep clean to decrease limescale build-up. Also, if you have soft water you may want to run a cycle every once in a while with an eco-friendly cleaning tab to prevent future build-up.
I added washing soda to citric acid, and it has all chemically reacted. I'm left with a thick paste, although I didnt add any water. Dont know if its usable anymore or not. Help please!
Oh my goodness! I've never had this happen, so I'm not speaking from experience, but I imagine it will still be usable. In the past I have made my recipe, added a bit of water, and put the paste into ice cube trays to create "pods". Maybe you could try the same.
You made sodium citrate. Another product of the reaction is water. She’s clueless.
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jt thanks for your helpful comment!
I'm loving it 👍 just one question: what's the purpose of the citric acid in this recipe?
So glad you like it! The citric acid helps to break down hard water and food residue.
@@homegrownhopes Thank you 🤗👍 I'm allergic to it so I'm trying to avoid it in cosmetics (it's added to balance the pH) but I guess that in dishwasher it doesn't bother me, I have to splash everything anyway because of my other allergy 🤦 Take care and good luck with your channel 🍀🌞
@@MyNewEra2012 Oh wow, I had no idea it was in cosmetics! It's also used to balance the pH for this recipe, but I've read of people using white vinegar instead. You could try to omit the citric acid and add vinegar to the rinse container in your dishwasher and see if you get similar results. Thank you so much for your comments!
@@homegrownhopes I'll try the vinegar then 😍 thank you for the advice!!
I never read the labels of content on cosmetics in the past until I learnt about all my allergies. The next time I was in the shop and started to read I realised that the majority of cosmetics contain citric acid!!!! Even many natural products. Allergies are annoying 😂🤣😂🤣😂 but they changed my life for the better because I'm avoiding a lot of things that aren't healthy. For housework I use only vinegar and bicarbonate soda anymore and it's fantastic 👍
The reason why I was looking for videos like yours is that my allergies are getting worse with age therefore I have to start to make from scratch everything that touches my body. Already bought soap nuts 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@MyNewEra2012 Oh my goodness, that is so frustrating! It's really overwhelming when you begin to look at labels. There is so much in our everyday products that really shouldn't be there.
I tried soap nuts in the past, but ended up going back to my homemade detergent, I guess just to feel in my head like it was more clean haha. You'll have to let me know how you like them!
Can this be used to wash dishes by hand?
I've not tried it, but it would probably suds up in a sink full of water! It would be worth trying.
Essential oil flavour ?
Citrus oils are best for this recipe to aid in cleaning the dishes. I prefer lemon or wild orange oil. If you need help getting your hands on some let me know!
Hi
Where did you find the citric acid ?
I mean which local store or brand information can help.
Thank you 🙏
You can usually find it at your local grocery store in the canning section. This is also a brand that I've had good results with. amzn.to/3TOJPVY
@@homegrownhopes Appreciate your help
Thank you 😊
Can we add vinegar to the recipe?
That would cause the actual detergent to bubble, but I add vinegar to the rinse aid container in my dishwasher.
@@homegrownhopes ok thanks!
@@aleamilabunsi Welcome!
I love vinagre in my rinse.
@@homegrownhopes
Yikes. You don’t think the citric acid also reacts with the baking and washing sodas? Yikes!!!
I don’t understand which salt do you mean?

@@homegrownhopes
Mommy blogger nonsense.
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jtWell then, why don't you direct us all to your own blog where you teach us how to make this item correctly, since many of us didn't take chemistry, instead of making spiteful hostile comments like you've done all through the comments section.
@@naomisnider8841
Another of YT’s armchair guidance counselors…
Wondering why mine turned hard in jar next day.... Now I have to chizzle it to get it out
It’s because when citric acid reacts with baking and washing sodas, one product is water, which enables more to dissolve and react, and so on. This is all based on grade school chemistry. The crystalline product is sodium citrate.
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jt thanks ? Lol
@@mrs.meowgi4879
Sodium citrate is a water softener. So mix the powders together and leave them in an open container, like a metal tray. Add water. Then grind up the resulting crystalline sodium citrate when it dries. Or pop it into the oven.
@@FrankGutowski-ls8jt Is this product going to actually do anything to clean the dishes, or will it just soften the water? If not can you recommend a recipe that will clean dishes and not leave a residue?
@@sewbuttns
Well, as mentioned earlier,,the ingredients react to produce sodium citrate, a water softener. There are no surfactants in it. However, I know that one commercial product is about 95% citric acid. So…
It would be better if you could have shown how this detergent actually works on dishes. By washing the dishes.
Appreciate the feedback
Citric acid comes from black mold
So beautiful and nice lady
Lord bless you
Nice video but one thing, the music is louder than your voice. Maybe try adjusting that :)
wow, you are beautiful.....!!!!
Help! I did exactly as you suggested in the video but the powder clumped in the soap compartment and prevented the soap door from opening. I typically never have this issue. Do you have any suggestions as to why it clumped and how to fix it? @@homegrownhopes
I haven't had this happen before, but maybe try to ensure that the soap compartment is completely dry before adding the powder?
