Over the Hill Pickles

Oops!



These got to go to the chickens because there was so much white sludge in my pickles that I didn't want to eat them.  Some were also soft.

What did I do wrong/ differently than before (previous NY Sour Pickles here)?

1. I used old brine from the fridge and poured it into the cucumbers instead of making new brine.
2. I used a large mason jar instead of my regular jar.
3. I used a lid not screwed on instead of a baggie filled with water touching the brine.

Which of these mistakes was the worst?  I think the lid.

Thoughts?
