Good tip.
Brine alone will do the job.
We’ve planted some hard neck garlic and are now harvesting a few of these.
Hub hates vinegar so I went that way, it was a new thing to try. Some of the jars sort of bubbled over as the brine “worked” and I had to put old towels under them. I think 2 jars went “funny”. I’m going to have to search for the recipe because I want to make them again. I did not water bath them or anything; just scrubbed the cukes very well, cut off blossom end, packed in sterilized (hot water etc) jars, put salt, water, dill, mustard seeds in and capped ‘em up. Let them sit for a couple of weeks I think, most of them sealed up.
