Anyone Use the Seventh Generation Dishwasher Detergent (Dishwasher Problem)?

Hi Mom's, Just wanting to rule out possible reasons my dishes are not getting clean before jumping to any conclusions with my dishwasher. Does anyone use the seventh generation dishwasher deteregent? Does it leave your dishes spotty. I have recently been having to re-wash my dishes a 2nd time because they are spotty. I tried using that rinse agent that you put into the dishwasher and its not fully remedying the situation. It appears/sounds like my dishwasher is doing its job; my dishes just are not getting clean.....Any advice...

Crystals in Diaper

My 5 month old daughter frequently has crystals in her diaper (they look like large pieces of salt.) I have read online that this is normal for the first few months of life in breastfed babies (she is), but she is now 5 months. I asked our ped and she asked if her urine was ever dark (it isn't) and if it could be a piece of diaper (it most clearly is not). Has anyone else experienced this? We are using seventh generation diapers.

Clothes Line Drying

For those of you who line dry your clothes/towels etc outside, I just started doing this this summer...I haven't found a way to get items to dry and NOT be all "crunchy" and stiff feeling. Ideas? For washing I use either biokleen or seventh generation free and clear, that's about it. I'm trying to keep it as ecofriendly as possible. Thanks so much!
