You need to contact your county extension office for food safe procedures. What you are looking for may not be a safe method, in other words, food poisoning could be a possiblity. I am a Master Food Advisor with my county. Here is what we recommend for pickled Dill green beans. 4 lb. fresh green beans 8-16 heads fresh dill 8 cloves garlic,optional 1/2 cup canning or pickling salt 4 cups white vinegar 4 cups water 1 tsp. red hot pepper flakes, optinal Wash and trim ends from beans. In sterile pint jars,place 1-2 heads dill, and 1 clove garlic.Place whole beans upright in jars, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Trim beans if neccessary to fit. Combine salt, vinegar, water, and pepper flakes. Bring to a boil. Add hot solution to beans, leaving 1/2 inch headspace. Adjust lids, and process in water bath canner for 5 minutes. Only pickled beans may be done in the water bath, tegular canned beans must be done in a pressure canner.
