At what point do you trash a cloth diaper?

I bough Grovias back in October and my husband kept the girls for the first time this weekend while I did a little vendor booth for 4 days straight.  Well, my youngest must have had a BM.  He didn't bother to spray it at all and wadded it up and left it in the can.....must have been at least 72 hours now I'm thinking.  It's thicker than peanut butter and anything else I can think of to compare it to..  I have it in the toilet bowl soaking and the liner looks ruined.  I'm afraid to wash something with that much solid left in the fibers with all my other diapers.  What do you suggest?

Do you have a sprayer?  If not, hose it off in the yard, haha!  I wouldn't trash a dipe over some poop.  Ours sit 72 hours occasionally.
Or use this as ammo to buy more diapers!  Preferably not grovias.

I've left poop diapers sitting for a week and after a few washes, they looked good as new.

Yeah spray or scrap. It's no big deal.

Related question:  would you trash a diaper for ammonia smell you can't get rid of?  I bought a used diaper that came with ammonia stink and I just can't get rid of it.  I have tried everything I could find on here or Google and nothing has worked.

Used? I'd ask for my money back. What all did you try?

When the happen to me, I boil the grovia insert, with a piece of a lemon. Then I wash it with the rest of the diapers. I also put some eucalyptus oil or lavender oil at the last rinse. Most of my inserts are grovia, is fine to boil it for 5 to 8 mn.

Is TPU similar enough to PUL that boiling would be a bad idea?
