HOW TO PRESERVE YOUR TOMATO HARVEST WITH CANNING 

Tomatoes in glass jars taste so much better than commercially canned tomatoes! Not even close!

Looks yummy! You need a rack to keep them elevated off the bottom.

'Make sure you got plenty of stuff in the pantry.' After hearing that, I hit the like button. Thanks for the video

Making memories......

When I was young my father and I would run the cornstocks through a chipper then roter till it into the soil chopping up the roots at the same time. That was in the 1960,s. I am 73 years old now.

Nice to see the family, a nice bunch you have there. Bless y'all real good.

What a cute baby boy!

Hoss Tools ROCKS !!! Absolutely my favorite

To keep pathogens at bay use a little citric acid and keep the PH below 4.6. Botulism won’t grow at those PH levels. You don’t need to cook them so much that all you have is tomato juice. 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon depending on variety of tomatoes.

You can dehydrate the skins and then powder them it is so great if you want a strong tomato taste

Oh my look at that corn nice, I wish I was your neighbor very nice garden

I also do tomato juice . I have a big juice that I run the tomato's through and a coalator I use with the accss from the juicer and pour it in the juice to thicken the juice. After that use the same process as the tomato's.

I read if you put a tablespoon of butter in the saucepan with the tomatoes it dissolves the scum/foam. Worth a try that way you don’t loose too much of your produce. I did try it when I made marmalade but haven’t tried it with tomatoes. Let me know if you try this how it goes. Thank you ❤️

I grew the Olympian cucumber this year. Lots of fruit and good taste. The little spikes I dont like so much. All in all wonderful variety!

I like learning from u guys

I like that set up

I ferment my tomatoes they are really good.

They look great, I love your video, but need a towel or something in the bottom so the jars isn't touching the bottom. It could cause them to break being that close to the heat. Or that's what every one says to do.

A little trick I learned I don't know where, no one in my family for 3 generations back has ever grown even a tomato but I cut a small X on the bottom of the tomatoes before dropping them into the hot water and leave them in for a minute or less. This tomato peels easily and remains clean and firm so as not to be such a mess wile Handling and coring them. This also works well if you have family that doesn't like the skin on their tomato in a salad or sandwich. I've had a vegie garden for the last forty of my 68 years. Mike from Maryland P.S. You guys have a great channel

Hey y'all! I would love to know where Miss Hoss got her big Blue Pots from 🥰 Love them!! Those tomatoes sure are pretty canned !

Will you please do a show on pesticides and what they are used for.

Friends, I'm not waiting until the end of the season like in the Past....Jerseys are available now in Pennsy, I'm starting now. Just me Friends.... Today is 8/10/2022.

Travis when will you plant your fall sweetcorn ?

do u have any videos on how to can tomatoes and green beans and cucumbers im new and all my seeds came from yall

Heard you can reuse canning lids. Pretty sure the Amish do. Have to make sure you don't crimp when removing. Only if they are bent are they bad. Soak them in warm water to plump them back up. Never tried it but will now. These days I'd never throw away a good used lid just in case.

Good video. I hope I can order Fall seed here for long. God speed

Hey, so a variety of corn I 'm growing this year, True Gold, is really suffering to Japanese beetles (zone 7B). I did have a sulfur deficiency but I have already resolved that and added nitrogen and compost; in an attempt to 'strengthen' the plants before they were damaged beyond regeneration. I am laying out plenty of birdseed which has attracted several crowned birds like cardinals and pileated woodpeckers which I see eating the beetles. In addition, I have been spraying the foliage with doctor Earth's Organic fungicide and insecticide, better known as 'Final Stop'. after the first week or two, the corn seemed to continue to be eaten as if I sprayed nothing at all, and now at week 3, the Japanese beetles are significantly worse than before I sprayed. Side note, I have a substantial amount of Dogfennel that seems to house hundreds of Beatles! do they multiply in Dogfennel? All my attempts at eradicating the dogfennel on my property have failed miserably!! so any advice as to how to eliminate it? Which consequently, might reduce my Japanese beetle population? My next attempt is to hang beetle traps, but I would rather control them through removing their habitat, if possible anyways.

I would like to use one of my large pots for canning where did you get yours I couldn't notice what kind you had and I can't put my jars on the bottom of a pot without rack when I boil them having the jar in the pot without a rack there is a possibility breaking the jars so tell me where did you get a rack for your pot thank you

Let me see if I have this correct. I’m ready to do my first attempt at canning. I do not need sterilize the Jars and sticking my unsterile fingers down in the jars is not a problem??

Travis im in a dillema!!! help...! So i harvested my tomatoes.... deskinned them... sterlized my pint jars in boiling water then hot packed my sauce into the jars and boiled for 30 minutes with lemon juice added... but i noticed a few seeds starting to sprout... is it safe to put up and eat down the line? ive never noticed the seeds sprouting before i dont think and ive done it this way for years... i used the waterbath canning method... thank you!!

Travis how many acres are you gardening? Thanks

When is it best to start rooting sweet potato slips,? Composting corn stalks Good or bad?

Do you have a can video on canning Cucumbers

What is the brand name of the drip tape you recommend ?

Did you add any water before you boiled or just the tomato liquid?

Do you have to boil your tomatoes before putting them in jars to process?

When did you plant the corn?

You don't need to boil for 45 minutes. I do it for .10 minutes and never had any problems. They seal just fine.

What I’d like to know is do you have any problems with raccoons or other critters in your corn 🌽 or tomatoes 🍅?

Question Do you have to put in a teaspoon of salt in each quat jars? I watched other people canning tomatoes 🍅!

You do don't need to take the foam off. I'm 67 & never have.

I noticed you did not have anything in the bottom of the pot to keep the jars from directly touching the pot. Isn’t that dangerous to the jars? Breakage?

Do you make salsa recipes

Hello Travis: How often can I reuse drip tape? Also, have you tried a Victorio Food Strainer for making tomato and apple sauce, and pumpkin puree? While I like the "chunky" style of tomatoes you did here, the Victorio let's you feed the tomatoes in raw. Here's a link to another RU-vid video demoing it. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tjv-fGSFZHc.html

Do u put basil in your tomatoes

What happens when tomatoes are processed too long? I forgot to set timer when they started boiling and so I don’t know what time they started boiling 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. I hurt my knee and went to get off it just a min and was so tired I fell asleep for a min. My husband was “on duty” but he didn’t know to set timer...

How do I can whole tomatoes with juice? That's how my mother did it. I would eat them right out of the jar.

You and your Dad always say that corn, peppers, watermelon, and tomatoes are HEAVY feeders. Are they all about the same or is one more of a greedy eater than the others? Thanks!

HOW DO YOU KILL NUTGRASS ! Please help !!!

Dumb question, why do you use regular mouth? I use wide for everything.

please supplement this vid showing the sugar and salt step. you left me hanging!
