You most certainly can but both Sodium Precarbonate and Borax from sprouts or
Whole Foods. And this aside telling the original poster that they cannot do
what they most certainly can, doesn’t answer the question at hand.

To do what you’re asking, I use 1/3 washing soda(sodium carbonate) and 2/3
sodium precarbonate. I was cautioned that this could bleach my clothes, and in
small instances, I’ve noticed the clothes fade a bit. In heavily colored
clothes I might change the ratio to less precarbonate and more carbonate. This
makes clothes come out of the wash smelling clean and most stains just don’t
stand a chance. (I use heavy precarbonate on white items)
This has very rarely not worked, but, I’m wondering about adding Botax to
this mixture. Anyway, I say use a bit of both, and let the sodium precarbonate
so it’s hydrogen peroxide magic and the washing soda soften the water to
help the precarbonate work more effectively.
