The Ultimate Guide to Washing Your Clothes: Expert Tips and Tricks

The debate over how often to wash jeans has been settled by cleaning experts. The recommended wash time frame can range from 3-to-10 wearings, depending on personal preference and the condition of the jeans. Some brands suggest never washing jeans to preserve their material and appearance. If jeans still look good and don't smell funky after a day's wear, they can be worn again before laundry day. Washing jeans too often can wear them out faster, so it's best to wash them if there's visible dirt or smell. Fresh-out-of-the-store jeans should be washed separately to prevent color transfer. Spot-treat stains instead of throwing the jeans in the washer, and hang-dry them to avoid damage from the drying process.

Say Goodbye to Slimy and Mushy Cucumbers with This Simple Trick

Slimy cucumbers should be disposed of as they indicate spoilage and can lead to health risks. Proper storage in the crisper drawer of the fridge at 50°F to 54°F and 90% to 95% humidity can prevent spoilage. Cucumbers should not be stored near ethylene-emitting produce. Cucumbers should be washed before eating, even though the FDA-approved wax coating is safe to eat. Look for firm cucumbers with a darker green color and no bruises or soft spots for the freshest option.
