Just finger tight! I been going over this and over this trying to figure out what I did different. The only thing I can think of that I did differently was after I put the water in the canner, I turned on the burner to start heating the water as I filled the jars. I can't even imagine why that would matter since when I am making anything with meat or corn or green beans etc I am running the canner all day long. Load and unload and load back up over and over again. I just don't get it. I grew up with momma and gramma canning and I have continued the tradition BUT it had to be something stupid I did, that I don't realize I did. I will be out again later this week and I will be doing this again. LOL keep your fingers crossed for me!
Editing this to add a picture! This was the beginning of my canning last fall. Just to show that I have canned before.
