First time canning peaches! Canned 11 quarts but only 9 sealed.
Is that normal to get a couple that don't seal? And I tried to get all the air bubbles out before putting the lids on them but after they cooled there are several with air bubbles in them. Is this an issue?
Thanks for any insights. I'm super happy to see beautiful peaches on my shelf! I was so scared to tackle this but I'm grateful for the experience. Hot packed them in light syrup and water bathed for 25 minutes.

Beautiful!!! I did peaches too this week. 5 cannings, two non-seals, 34 seals…. Did better when I really worked hard on proper headspace and was extra careful vinegar-wiping the tops. Also, I’ve learned to be incredibly gentle moving jars to towel/table and ignoring them for 12 hours. Those look good!
I’ll let someone with more experience speak about air bubbles.
what recipe did you use?
