Newbie washing questions

hi ladies, i know this questions probably been asked a million times BUT.....
i have just recieved some CT basics and couture, i know i need to wash them a few times and my questions are..
do i take out the snap ins and boosters and wash them all as seperate items?
Can i wash brand new basics and couture together or will fluff get all over all of them?
i also bought some bum wipes, can i wash them with my nappies for the first time OR is it safer to wash them seperate?
Storage wise, do u keep ur nappy as a whole or do u have the snap ins and boosters stacked up together seperate?
i also bought the foaming bottom washy stuff, does that get sprayed on bubby's bum or on the wipe and then bottom??
sorry if my questions seem stupid, i just want to do the right thing given how much everything costs!
TIA

do i take out the snap ins and boosters and wash them all as seperate items? I do, there's less stress on the elastic then as the nappies are really heavy when wet
Can i wash brand new basics and couture together or will fluff get all over all of them? Nope all in together, yes they probably will get a bit of fluff on, but hey, you aren't going to wash em sepeartely forever so they will eventually anyway
i also bought some bum wipes, can i wash them with my nappies for the first time OR is it safer to wash them seperate? again I chuck em all in together
Storage wise, do u keep ur nappy as a whole or do u have the snap ins and boosters stacked up together seperate? I put mine together off the line - DH has no idea goes with what and it saves a pain when you go to change a bum...no fiddling around just grab one and go. mine are stored in 2 buckets (one with complete nappies ie AIOs and pockets, and another with fitteds) and the covers in a basket. That way DH only has to reach into one bucket and he knows he's getting a whole nappy.
i also bought the foaming bottom washy stuff, does that get sprayed on bubby's bum or on the wipe and then bottom?? on the wipe
