The invention provides a method for controlling pouring of laundry detergent. After being started, a washing machine calculates corresponding first pouring amount of the laundry detergent based on acquired information and displays the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent. The washing machine detects and judges a variable of the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent to form a second pouring amount of the laundry detergent, the washing procedure is started, and the washing machine pours the laundry detergent at a first pouring amount or a second pouring amount of the laundry detergent. The invention further provides a washing machine which includes an automatic pouring device, a computer board and a display screen, wherein the automatic pouring device pours based on the pouring amount of the laundry detergent calculated by the computer board, and the display screen is used for displaying the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent and/or the second pouring amount of the laundry detergent in real time. The method for controlling the pouring of laundry detergent and a washing machine provided by the invention can solve the problem that users cannot control the pouring amount of the laundry detergent by themselves when they use the existing washing machine with a function of automatic pouring of laundry detergent, thereby satisfying the individual laundry requirements of users.
