Before treating any garment, always first refer to the instructions on the care label.
1) Plant fertilizers contain dye which can be difficult to remove. First, pretreat the stain with liquid detergent <breve> Tide Liquid or Tide Liquid with Bleach Alternative <breve> and rinse thoroughly.
2) Using a PLASTIC bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use Tide with Bleach® per gallon of water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a WHITE towel to keep it totally submerged. Discard your soak solution appropriately when you're finished.
3) Wash in hottest water safe for the fabric with 1 use of Tide with Bleach.
4) Air dry. Repeat the procedure, if necessary.
5) If the stain persists, soak white items in a diluted solution of water and liquid chlorine bleach. If the stain is not removed in 15 minutes, it cannot be removed with bleach. Remove the garment from the solution so you do not weaken the fabric. Also be sure to bleach the whole garment, not just the stain.
