[quote=Anonymous]As long as you are following USDA, Ball, or a trusted source for guidelines you'll be fine. Low-acid foods usually require a pressure canner, so special equipment, but you can water bath can many with a loooooong canning time with no special equipment. I've been canning for years, self-taught, and have not had issues. Regarding growing your own and canning for gifts, my only caution would be to make sure the people you are giving it to will actually use/want it. I know many folks who wonn't use (or don't think to use) home canned goods and end up throwin gthem away. [/quote]
