Soooo glad you shared the difference between shell out beans and dry storage beans. I for YEARS didn’t understand what was meant by it. It was how far you let them get on the vine that confused me. Everyone just said, “let them beans dry on the vine but not too dry.” Never explaining the “pod” was what you’re looking at first with shell outs not the actual “bean.” The yellowing not the brown dry pod. This is awesome information Charles. Also another reason why I ALWAYS, and I mean every time, check to see if you’ve got a video on anything I do that’s new to me. And honestly you’ve had something every single time! You, my dear sweet friend are an absolute blessing! Love, hugs and blessings to you and the Mrs. always~ Lisa
Very thankful right now for OAG leaving this video here, for us who remain. I needed this information today, as I planted Red Kidney beans for the first time this year. ❤
Oh man I'm about to make some rabbit poop soup. I have a pet bunny I rescued and I just got into gardening but he makes poop for days! Thanks for your wisdom.
I'm sitting here planning my 2020 garden. I asked my husband if he knew anything about how kidney beans grow. He had no more idea than I did lol. Thank you for showing how simple it is to grow and can kidney beans!
Hello Beverly and welcome to my videos. As you see in my video, you don't have to wait until the beans are dry. I like them when they are at the "shell out" stage. Pinto beans are also just as easy to grow and can, watch my video on growing pinto beans at: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cvpqrrcRdr0.html OAG
I’ve never used rabbit poop soup but I have always watered my seeds or transplants in the hole before covering them up. I think it makes a deference for sure. Thank you for sharing all your knowledge with us!
I hope you keep producing videos for as long as you’re able to! I always learn something great and garner inspiration for my own backyard garden. Thank you for your effort to distribute your knowledge and wholesomeness. Greetings from Nebraska!
Hello Marissa and welcome to my videos. Thank you and I will continue as long as my health hold up. I am 79 years old, so who knows how long that will be. I am happy if my videos help you grow some of your own vegetables. If you haven't already, *_*I invite you to subscribe*_* and watch as I upload more videos during the summer growing season. Thanks for stopping by. OAG
Thank you so much for sharing this! My Granny use to can her vegetables, but I was too young back then to really understand everything. I'm definitely going to try some canning myself now! Have a Blessed day! 🌼
This was very informative! Thank you... I use to fear the pressure cooker but I enjoyed the Caribbean meals that would come out of it c/o my Mom or Grandmother. Saying Hello from Toronto, Canada!
👀........my guess is you're requesting more without actually going to his channel where the "more" are. Otherwise, you'd see he passed away going on two years ago
Fair play good job from ground to jar..... one for the crow one for the worm one to grow 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I watching from ireland and the old timers here some dead and some alive all talk in the same way 👍👍
I absolutely LOVE these videos that you share when you show us how the whole process from growing stuff to canning what you grow for the pantry!!!! YOU ROCK!!! I canned some collard greens that I grew in my backyard a few days ago. Thanks for sharing.
HEY! You are the one that "ROCKS", just for watching my videos. Later as the weather begins to cool off I will plant my fall garden and then as it comes on I'll can some of it. I like to make *** Start to finish*** videos so you can see the whole process. But of course it takes weeks from the time I plant the seeds to the time when I am canning or cooking the vegetable. OAG
Thanks for a clear and concise video on this subject. I've read comments about other videos you have done. So you have a new subscriber from Northern Ireland.
A very good thing about Rabbit poop is that it doesn't burn you plants! Won't burn their roots either! You could plant directly in the poop! It is GREAT stuff!! Bee blessed Danny and Rita in TN on Rooster Ridge
Hello Rita and welcome to my videos. You are right about the rabbit poop being a "cold manure". I have found it to be a great fertilizer for my garden. OAG
Charles well done using Rabbit poop . I used rabbit poop to grow the best melons and tomatoes that I every grew . Now I use Bio digested fish, kelp and comfrey . I put it on everything .Throw all three in a garbage can and leave it for 1 year .Add lots of water . Just before spring I give every thing a cup or two and other food forest nothing . What a different out come of food production . This year I have a over whelming amount of food . Every tree is loaded and the food bank is happy to get the over abundance . The food forest with out the Bio digested fish , kelp , and comfrey did half the production . Love seeing your videos OAG . Take Care Howie
FFP, this is my first year using rabbit manure for my garden and I an excited about the results. I will be using all I can collect next year. I will do as you describe, make up a trash can of poop soup (comfrey, rabbit manure and molasses) for next year. Thank you for watching my videos. OAG
Thank you Sir! I learned a lot and really appreciate your video. I use my own version of "rabbit poop soup" and I agree it works wonders! Bless you & Thx again
Wow those look really good. Thank you for all the step by step instructions from planting to canning! Hopeful in TN, for a bean harvest like this one of yours. Blessings 🙋🏼😊
H Laurie and welcome to my videos. There is nothing better than home grown vegetables. You can grow these just as I did. About where in TN are you growing at? Thanks for stopping by. OAG

@@OldAlabamaGardener I'm a city boy and now a fan. I and my brother would love for you to visit Texas and share your gardening techniques in our vast backyard. We have a bed for you.
My whole family loves kidney beans! Thanks so much, you have taught me well. My uncle Walt used to sing that diddy. We are moving and I wish to have a garden next year. I will keep watching and I will stay subscribed to your channel💜. You're knowledge is invaluable my friend. Hmmm, perhaps we should get our kids a rabbit!?
Morning OAG, thanks for the tip on the Poop Soup! I remember back when we raised rabbits on the farm for meat to sale, we would save all the poop and compost it. We used it to side dress our plantings in the gardens. Now that I am retired, I will be getting rabbits again this spring. If you know a good place to get some rabbits to start with let me know. Thanks for the video, You'all take care, stay safe and God Bless You and Yours. Mr. Tom

OAG, can I plant kidney and navy beans in the fall also like green beans ? I would imagine it's too late for spring planting now. I live near the coast In Louisiana, so I have long growing seasons.
I don't think it is too late for you to grow kidney, navy and green beans in your area. Hello and welcome to my videos. Thanks for watching. Please subscribe. OAG
Great video...I'm in east Texas but never tried raising kidney beans,but I love them a lot..so after watching this think I'll try next year. I've seen people take the rings off after cooling the jars,but never knew why,is there a reason or is it to reuse to can more jars? I've canned over the years,but not a ton..mostly pears 😁🍐🍐🍐..thanks OAG for a very helpful video👍
Hello RWC: Yes, there is a reason for removing the rings after the jars cool and it is: If the ring remains on and the contents spoil (for whatever reason) the bad bacteria caused by the spoiled content will build up pressure and the jar will break spilling the contents out and making a mess in your storage area. If the ring is off, then the only thing that will happen is the lid will pop off and the jar will not break, which means of course no mess to clean up. And of course I do wash the rings and reuse them to can more jars. Thanks for stopping by. OAG
Thank you for making this video. I know it sounds dumb but I’ve always been wary of cooking my own kidney bean (dried) because I read that if you don’t boil them long enough they can make you sick. I never thought to can them. I’m going to do this!
Hello Rebecca. I have cooked kidney beans almost all my life and I had never heard that uncooked beans could make me sick. And as far as I know I have never gotten sick from eating kidney beans. I usually cook my kidney beans in chili or soup so it does get a longer cooking time. Plus canning will cook them to the well done point. Thanks for watching my videos. OAG
I believe that I read that boiling them for 10 minutes gets rid of the toxin. :) I think you have to boil them longer than that to get them soft enough to eat. :P
Thank you 🙏 I am going to do this today if there is enough beans on my vines. Thank you I didn’t want let them all dry out. Thank you and God bless take care angela from. Not just about ducks 🦆
Hello and welcome to my videos. in this video, the kidney beans are heated only to get them hot, not cooked, the cooking would be during the canning process. I don't really have a time for them to be cooked until ready to eat. My recommendation is to cook them until they are tender. Thank you for watching my videos, please subscribe. OAG
I dont have any rabbits to poop! Ill try cow manure tea with a hit of blood and bone. Fingers crossed. Thank you for posting this guide. Most appreciated.
One comment on the cow manure. be sure the cow didn't eat grass or hay that had been sprayed with herbicides. The herbicides go on through the cow and are in the manure. Herbicides prevent broad leaf plants from growing. OAG
I love kidney beans Mr. Charles, those look great. Never considered growing them. As soon as I have the space set up I'm giving these a try. Trying baby limas this year and I need to learn how to can those. These are basically dry when picked, should I be picking them sooner in order to can them? We can pintos from dried beans, would the dried lima beans be done the same way?
Hello TMW. All DRY beans (baby lima, kidney beans, pinto beans, butter beans) will be canned the same (the long process). All SHELL OUT beans (baby lima, kidney beans, pinto beans, butter beans) will be canned (the short process) as you see in this video. You don't want to mix shell out and dry beans in the same canning process. SNAP beans, such as fresh green beans will be canned the short process. OAG
