Here's a different kind of recipe. Do not eat this. This is only for cleaning.
DO NOT MIX WITH BLEACH!!! It will create deadly gas!
WASH WATER
I reiterate: DO NOT DRINK and DO NO MIX WITH BLEACH! Only use for cleaning!
8 cups (1.89L - just make it 2L) water
½ cup (120ml) ammonia
¼ cup (60ml) distilled white vinegar
3 Tbsp baking soda
In a pail, bucket, stainless steel bowl, etc., add the ingredients to the water, not the other way around.
DO NOT ADD BLEACH!
It should be a little fizzy since the baking soda should react with the vinegar. DO NOT ADD BLEACH no matter how much you want to! Bleach reacts with ammonia to create chloramine gases and vinegar and bleach make chlorine gas and strong acids. (Utah Health PDF, C&EN article, Missouri Poison Control)
On another note, you can add some Epsom salt for a somewhat ecologically friendly fertilizer for your herbs, veggies, or flowers.
This blog is documentation of my late grandmother's handwritten recipes, as well as recipes I've come across or made up. There are no photos or images as my grandmother's recipe book didn't have any, except for ones she clipped from magazines, for example.
These recipes are free for all to use. Please enjoy them by yourself, with friends, with family, feeding the hungry, or in whatever way you wish.
God bless you all.
