You’re doing great! A 5 gallon bucket of beans is a LOT of beans, LOL! I’m avoiding picking mine; I will hoe all day but I HATE picking beans. Go figure! :)
My wax beans are ready to be picked but I will save them for tomorrow. It will be the 1st picking for them, was 3rd and largest picking for green beans.
I was surprised that the bulk of the beans fit into the (7) quart jars I was canning.
