    Everytime I try to shrink wrap my soap it wrinkles up ugly and gets holes. I’ve tried different heat settings and distances.. I use POF eco friendly bags and I’m not sure if they suck or if I suck..😢

    You are ahead of me. I delayed my tomato starts this year so they didn’t get too big before I could plant them out. For indeterminate tomatoes you don’t pinch the top like you do with flowers or basil. To get a plant with 2 leaders you let the plant grow and instead of removing all the suckers, you leave 1 to grow into the 2nd leader and then continue removing all the other suckers. I grow my tomato plants this way. There is nothing like homegrown tomatoes! Happy growing!

    @JessicaJones-me6sp Před 4 měsíci

    Hi there. When you stack your jars without a shelf make sure the bottoms of the top jars are resting on 2 jar rings instead of directly on the top of the jar below. The reason is that it will not allow the air to escape effectively, possibly creating a false seal. When a shelf is used for stacking it is resting on the rings that are not pressed hard down on the lids (finger tight). I only comment this because you seem to be a careful canner. The Presto canner manual says use 3 quarts of water. I've never measured if it is 1.5 inches, but just in case.

  • @NuNationsUnity
    @NuNationsUnity Před 8 měsíci

    for the amount of food you have in comparison to the vinegar in comparison to the amount of time you are processing your jars, I would think 40 minutes in the pressure canner for just the onions alone is safer??? So many recipes for salsa but how many are actually correct? Also, even with pressure canning at recommended times for vegetables, you'd still have to boil the food for 10 minutes before consuming it to be 100% sure that botulism spores were destroyed in the event they survived the pressure canning process at the correct time frame.

    • @NuNationsUnity
      @NuNationsUnity Před 8 měsíci

      One suggestion to consider being we all have our own rules in our own kitchens and especially when rebel canning is...add 1 to 2 table spoons of bottle lemon juice to each jar (maybe 3 tablespoons for a quart) before filling them up to add extra acidity (I'd also stir it up), and perhaps process your jars longer in the pressure canner between 35 (half pints to pints to 45 minutes for quarts. I'd still add extra lemon juice regardless.

Amazon gives recommendations for Enroll to FBA and there is this "Potential sales Lift over 90 Days" estimations. Some numbers are high and some are low and there is a consistency between them. I do not know how trustworthy it is? Do you suggest me to sell with prime label? Will there be a change in sales? Could you share your thoughts about this?

    Cheers to you for a great video! There isn’t much out on CZcams for ‘canning up’ an infused simple syrup. I was looking for a Mint Lime Simple Syrup to make Mojitos through winter with and was able to change out the lemon juice in your recipe for lime juice. I also added the color in mine (plus a couple drops of yellow to tone down the toxic green look). I did a second batch following the same proportions using basil instead of the mint for a Basil Limeade. This was fun, I thank you!
