    I’ve done them many ways quick pickles , fermented , etc. keep coming back to the way my uncle used to make them.
    Kirby cukes
    6c h2o
    6c white vinegar
    5Tbsp pickling salt
    About a Tbsp of pickling spice
    Tbsp sugar
    Some dill fresh or freeze dried ~1tsp
    About a head of garlic cloves smashed
    Leave on counter for 3 days with loose lid then refrigerate And that’s it
    Sometimes I’ll add hot pepper to spice it up

    Eventually I’ll have to get a more precise recipe
    Not sure how long they’re good for but they usually get eaten within a week.

    Need to find a good recipe for half sour pickles.

    Surg Thanks. I’ve been going to plant some Kirby’s but didn’t get around to getting seeds this year. Your recipe sounds similar to the one I’ve used. I’ll give it a try once the cucumbers start in earnest.

          Tex_77 Don’t forget the mint tea then too. You can do that spearmint fresh or freeze it, better yet dehydrate it. We do four different types.

                          The garden is coming along slowly. I finally have tomatoes on the vine on my Early Girl plant. The deer and rabbits are causing havoc this year. Most of my okra and about a half row of beans disappeared this week.

                                        6c h2o
                                        6c white vinegar
                                        5Tbsp pickling salt
                                        About a Tbsp of pickling spice
                                        Tbsp sugar
                                        Some dill fresh or freeze dried ~1tsp
                                        About a head of garlic cloves smashed
                                        Leave on counter for 3 days with loose lid then refrigerate And that’s it
                                        Sometimes I’ll add hot pepper to spice it up

                                        Eventually I’ll have to get a more precise recipe
                                        Not sure how long they’re good for but they usually get eaten within a week.

                                        Need to find a good recipe for half sour pickles.
