Adding salt to your pickling brine is one important way to help lactic acid bacteria win the microbial race. ... Too much salt is also a problem: Lactic acid bacteria cannot thrive, leaving your vegetables unpickled. What's more, salt-tolerant yeasts can spread more quickly.

Adding salt to your pickling brine is one important way to help lactic acid bacteria win the microbial race. At a certain salt concentration, lactic acid bacteria grow more
quickly than other microbes, and have a competitive advantage. Below this "right" concentration, bad bacteria may survive and spread more easily, possibly out-competing lactic acid bacteria and spoiling your pickles.
