cucumbers

1291g	whole cukes of various types and sizes (from garden)
51g	salt (4% solution)
48g	whole unpeeled garlic cloves
5g	whole dill seed (all I had on hand)
6g	whole coriander seed
2g	whole black peppercorn
3g	whole dried Thai chilis
2	whole fresh Californian bay leaves

Started as 4% salt by cuke weight then was far too light a brine. I did the wrong thing after that and eyeballed it, testing brine until it was decently salty. Used zippy filled with brine as weight. Placed in sunny spot.

UGH!! MOLD!!
