- Hope you enjoyed the video. The Lids turned out ok . It was my fault I had them to tight. That run of beans turn out 86 quarts when you added the two rows Will picked the next day.

![GREEN SNAP BEANS - KNOWING WHEN TO PICK [**SECRET TIPS AT THE END**] (OAG)](/img/n.gif)
Picked 6 gallons of beans yesterday and froze 4 today after cleaning and snapping. Taking the day off for my legs to recover. Keep up the great videos we really enjoy your channel. Thanks.
Thank You . I’ve got a corn video coming out tomorrow. I still hope to can more.
Happy 4th! Thanks for sharing!
Hey Jeff
Happy 4th to you.
Really enjoyed your bean picking and canning video. Y'all are a great family effort on your farm ! I reuse my rings too over and over ....and over ! 😊 We totally enjoy your relaxed atmosphere and presentation !
you totally relax us ! Lolol...honestly ...I cannot get brave enough to use a pressure cooker !🙃 I think my mother is responsible for my fear of it from when I was a little girl ! Lolol...you may just instill enough brave in me to try using one though ! " Or maybe knot" as a knot in stomach just thinking about it ! Your all around guy and we admire your faith ! You and Lena have very respectable sons...wonderful young men ! God is so so good to us every day ! God bless you and God loves you ! Thank you for all you share !
Hey Charlene
Thank you so much for your kind words it really means a lot . I know how you feel on the canner. Leno really gets tore up riding on the Interstate , but she powers through it . Lol I will say yes there dangerous but they have locks and blow out plugs that if the pressure gets to high for some reason the plug will blow out and release the pressure. Thank you again for your comment. God Bless You.
Thanks Joe ! Iam very family with pushing through ...and I embrace the challenges..
Thank you for your encouraging words ! I really lay appreciate it ! I hate obstacles that paralyze my progress...I raised 8 kids and they're all very over successful so I do have it in me to persevere
Yessir just like we did in the golden days .well done JTWES family.
Had me some good help.
I think you may be over tightening those rings. Only supposed to be finger tight or the jar cant vent when it's under pressure. Hope it works out with those chinese lids. Excellent video.
I did . I thought I put it in the video description. They worked perfect when you just fingered tighten them. The ones I messed up on still sealed off. Thanks for watching.
@@Jtwes 👍 Good deal.
Love that old canner
Hey Mr Joe
Sammy H here from Ms my wife and I put up around 300 jars a year we’ve been canning for years. When we first started canning I was tightening my lids like that and I was having the same problem. I did some research and started only finger tightening them and I haven’t had any more problem. We use all kind of different brand of lids and they always seal. Give it a try I think it’ll work for you.
Have a good day. And God Bless!!
Hey Sammy
Your totally correct I was and the sad part I knew better. We got it figured out on the rest that day. Good news is those domed ones did seal off. Thanks for watching and commenting. God Bless
Man my beans aren't doing well because of no rain but hopefully next year might be better.
I hate to hear that. Mine wouldn’t have done anything if it weren’t for that motion detector and me watering them.
I know people who would say you’re crazy for doing all that work. But that’s the good life when you can plant and harvest your own food. Keep up the good work. Thanks for sharing. Have a good day.
I told Leno I really believe it’s going to come in real handy in the future.
Watched and liked. Really enjoy your videos!
Thanks Gary.
Enjoyed watching. The weather up there looks nice
Looks like a cool breeze while you're picking.
Here in South Alabama where the air in summer is thick as grits we plant enough for one pulling. We call it pulling because we go out into the field and pull the whole plant fill the wagon up and go under the shade and pull the beans off the plant while sitting in the swing. LOL hot summers can make a man think simple. HAPPY 4 th!! God Bless you.
Hey Bama Man
I did that once with some bush beans it just made it easier. Happy 4th
Enjoyed the video , always good to see from field preparing to harvest to preserving. We have gotten 30 qts of beans so far , fixin start tomatoes .
I’m hoping to can corn Tomorrow or Monday.
Makes me smile seeing a family out picking beans. Thanks for all the good info, great video buddy.
Thanks John.
I didn’t film all the bean field fight. Lol We we’re throwing things at each other.
Looks like you and I had the same week. Enjoyed it as always
Hoping to do soon corn tomorrow.
@@Jtwes looking forward to it.
My daughter looks so lovely even picking beans ❤️
Joe, the sensor on that plane is probably not THAT sensitive to the heat. But it's highly sensitive to the wind friction coming out of DC and especially the friction from those gov contract. 😆 Meanwhile, another good video from you guys. Thanks for sharing a slice of your life. 👍
Thank you. I agree with that . Lol
Those beans look good, doesn’t look like the deer bothered them. I would grow a100ft row, that was enough for us. I did a lot of canning when the kids were home. Grandma always picked everything barefooted. Three canners, that’s big time canning!
I just bought 2 more lol 😂
Good to see someone still canning in volume. I also run 3 canners, and have a canner that will hold half gallon jars.
I use a cooker made from old propane tobacco barn burners for my canning.
Hey Lamont I can do them out side but if I keep 3 rotating on the range I can do pretty good.
Oh Joey, you've got my mouth watering with those green beans. You have been blessed with a fine harvest. So glad they produced for your family. Thanks for the educational video. Stay cool out there. 😀
Thanks Torri
They do hold good flavor. Thanks for watching.
just a thought. maybe you over tighten rings ?
I definitely did. I wrote that in the description. I don’t know what I was thinking. Those lids ended up working out well. Thanks for watching.
👍👍
Yup wrenched them a bit to tight the gas didn't escape from the vegetable matter and expansion of hot water. Round two with a different lid and remember to eat them first. Other than that good job and as enjoyable as ever , from field to table. I have done them with 1/2 a small cube of chicken bouillon and shallots or pearl onions some smoked on the grill and some not. In just my opinion the batches with lightly smoked peal onion tasted better because I didn't need to season at all when I cooked them.
Hey Larry
Yeah I did I just wasn’t thinking. But it worked out in the end we figured it out and the domed ones sealed off.
@@Jtwes I'm glad for y'all🙂
The reason your lids buckled was because you were using strength to tighten them way too tight. You should tighten your lids "FINGER TIGHT". Voice of experience a long canning time ago my friend.. Nothing wrong with your lids or the water, it was operator error.... LOL
Your right. I had put in the description that I did. Just wasn’t thinking about what I was doing as much as thinking about what I was going to say. I knew better. Good news is when the cooled down they still sealed off great. Thanks for watching.
The ALL-AMERICAN canner works perfectly on the flat top electric stoves. We have canned 40 qt. jars of green beans, 40qt. jars of tomatoes with no issues. I guess it all depends on the quality of your canner.
I just bought one yesterday. I wasn’t worried about the canner as much as the stove getting burnt out because of the canner.Thanks for watching.
@@Jtwes I had always heard that you couldn't use a flat top stove with a canner, but I read the manuals on both the stove and canner and everything was compatible. Enjoy your videos, that's the way we farmed when I was growing up. But that was quite a few years ago 🤔.
That’s pretty much what I was going by just always heard that. I’ve never had a electric stove of any type.
Great video Joey. I need a wagon like that.
Hey Billy
That used to be our beach wagon.
A really good time to think about things is when you're snapping beans
Yes sir no tv just fellow ship and memories.
@@Jtwes TV is one of the many ways we allow satan into our homes.
You better believe it.
The purpose of running the jars through the dishwasher and boiling the lids is to keep the glass and lids bacteria free. Ball lids are the way to go. My wife just finished about 40 quarts of sweet and dill pickles. Thanks for the great content!
I’ve just always figured as hot as the pressure canner gets it would sterilize it during the process. I don’t know that to be true that’s just my thinking. Lol
👍
Hey Joey, I think it was the big black/blue enamel water-bath canners that were rough on the electric/flat-top stoves! At least that's what I remember from growing up 50+ yrs. ago. Mainly the weight I suppose and material? and doing several cannings back to back probably. We've been canning Tenderettes for a couple of weeks now! Thankful to receive a harvest from our labors! God bless my friend!
Hey Bobby
Your probably right. I just had heard it was tuff on them type stoves.
Looking good. Takes me back. Maybe one day we'll be the deer to our beans again.
They can’t out run that powder stick you got . Lol
I plant hickory king corn and beans together. The beans run up the corn stalk. Makes them a lot easier to pick.
I need that for sure.
You lightly snug the lids and cover the jars about 1 inch over the lids . When , I coal pack my method is water bath not coal packed .They have lids you don’t have to boil in water .
Hey Rosemary
I just wasn’t thinking your totally correct they were way to tight. But the good news is they sealed off anyway.
@@Jtwes take rings a lightly loosing them or take rings off jars all together if sealed
Good looking beans. I'm like you I like to eat them but I'm slow picking them. I'm right there with you on the plane deal. We think a lot like. That's the way we were raised. Thanks for sharing the video. Hope y'all have a great 4th of July. Tell your family I said hi.
Hey Bart
I will and happy 4th to you.
NC AG. Extension from April 1 till November 31 does FREE soil testing
Yes sir thank you for that info.
My Grandma would have been in hog heaven there, picking, stringing, snapping and canning. I'm like you Joe. I was better at priming tobacco than picking beans.
They did most of the work I was just there to support.
I love green beans and peas but my back won’t let me pick them 🤦🏻♂️
It seems like you have to pull a truck load of peas before there’s enough to can.
@@Jtwes or plant enough to justify on of those one row bean pickers
Can you please send me to where you got the shovel plows on the rear of your 140. Thank you
Hey Roger
A subscriber of mine found them and ordered them for me. All I remember it was somewhere in Georgia I think. Email me and I’ll see we’re it was and email you back.
Thank You
I thank you tightened the lids too tight. I use the Amazon lids also. Just snug the lid with one hand the jar sitting on the counter when the jar turns its tight enough. Grandma's schooling she did Ball lids that way hardly ever had one fail.
Hey Jerry
Your right I did. I figured it out after that run. Good thing was they still sealed off.
Thanks for the tutorial. I think mom quit canning in the 60’s and the canning “stuff” just went away. All I really remember is it was work. I was in the Army after 65 and my work was different! Too many “lost” skills IMO. The ability to feed oneself and a family is definitely becoming a lost art. I sure hope things don’t go the way that worries you. Worrisome time right now, but maybe I’m just old and cynical? Do you ever salt cure?
Hey Stan
I know how. My uncles used to salt cure there hams.
Ya and it’s not very hot at 40,000 ft.more like-40 deg.
That’s what another subscriber said. I didn’t if think of that.lol
I remember picking beans snapping n canning when I was a young boy with mom n grandma. That time of the season on the farm with haying etc was sure busy... graduated to cutting,raking etc and never canned again till years later making pickles. Keep up the good work... from North Dakota . Ps what u got in that can in your front shirt.... Copenhagen snuff or stokers, mines empty can a feller bum a chew lol
Hey Fritz
I seen My Grandmother can when I was young but I never got to help her.
I grow blue lake pole beans and I pick every other day. I haven’t gotten to the end of your video but my all American canner hold 7 quart jars. It takes forever to Cut the ends off the beans, blanch the beans, sterilize the jars, load the jars, run the pressure cooker to the point you can put the 10 pound weight on it, then after it’s finished you have to let it cool down and I usually do that overnight. For me it’s an all day process just canned 7 quart jars beans. You must have more than one pressure canner. If you think you’re gonna get 70 quarts that means you own seven pressure canners and you’re gonna be running them all in tandem.
Your right I do. I have 5 of them and I keep them rotating. I will say good or bad I don’t know but I don’t blanch the beans so that saves a lot of time. Thanks for watching.
@@Jtwes That means you can be processing 35 quart jars in a cycle. I saw in the video that you had one hot plate. I own one cast iron hot plate that I got on Amazon through a CZcams recommendation. So besides a four burner stove how many hot plates are you running
I have four cookers if I want to but usually what happens is the stove will do 2 canners at one time as soon as one’s done I move it off to cool. I know your not supposed to. Then while it’s cooling I put another one in its place so from the getting up to temp to cooling there’s a constant rotation. The safer thing would be to use my cooker burners doing the same thing just not moving them till they depressurerize . I actually don’t own a hot plate.
I went back and watched again I found were I was thinking we were going to get 30 which actually turned out to be 42 the first day and the next day my son pulled two more rows which were super heavy got me to 80 something 8 which wear half gallon counting them as 2 quarts. But anyway we’re did you get the 70 number from.
Nice looking beans, what's the type or name of that bean?
Those are called Roma II . I started planting them about 7 yrs ago and really enjoy them.
I can't grow beans to save my life here in Texas. What state are you in??
I’m in North Carolina In Caswell county.
@@Jtwes beautiful crop!
It could be that it's a democratic sensor
Lol 😂 Thanks for watching.
I’m with you, leave Air Force One paint alone. Every American and other countries recognize the jet and it’s a symbol of our great country. They should leave politics out of so much. Enjoy your videos!🇺🇸
I just want them to be honest about why there doing something. I’m fine with either color. I am partial to how it looks now. Thanks for watching.
Honey you tightened the jars too tight! Just finger tight!
That’s a sweet way of putting it. Yes you are exactly right. I wasn’t thinking. We got it changed on the rest we did that day.
Politics plays a part into every aspect of government spending. Boeing, McDonald Douglas, Grumman, Lockheed all play politics with the parties in power. Trump 2024!
Just found this channel. You seem like a very kind man. But if reusing lids, using rusty rings, over-tightening lids etc. is how you can, I will not be watching. Please those of you who are new to canning, these are things you do not do. Follow the direction in the Ball book, exactly how they’re written. I wish you luck.
Hey JSimp
I hope you stick around . This is not a how to video it’s just part of my life. For example folks email me all the time and ask what oil goes in a 140. I tell them IH recommended Low ash 30 weight. I don’t personally do that I use 10w30. Your just seeing what we do and have done for several generations. As another subscriber said it’s a slice of my life. I would understand your concerns if I billed this video as a “This is the way you Can” Thanks for watching.
I will stick around. Thank you for your response.
@@jsimp4050 Thank you . I did make a point in a upcoming video canning sweet corn , To say I do not follow all what ball recommends because your right some one who’s trying to learn for the first time needs to know that my video is not the best one for a how to canning video.
Paint it red and put MAGA on it.....
Lol I’m sure that would go over good.😂
