@seattwa not much juice is required.. When you are packing the jar much juice squeezes out of the lemons... Do not use water.. Only lemon juice from freshly squeezed lemons..
4 - 6 weeks? That's very good. Is that because you're using small Mexican lemons? I have found that the fruit available here (Northern England), which is larger and has thicker peel, usually takes about 6 - 7 months to come to readiness. I've also found that after 2 - 3 batches the brine becomes syrupy, and is nice added to salad dressings.
I also preserve limes in extra virgin olive oil, which process is much quicker, taking only 3 -4 weeks.
They look like the Meyer lemons I used to grow in my backyard. I lost the tree this year because of the hard freezes and snow we had in Central Texas this year.
He cheated. There was a lot of juice in there and he didnt show how he did it. Is squeezing jif concentrated lemon juice in a bottle ok?

@iluvcliffrichard The juice is from the lemons as you press them in. These are the small Mexican lemon that are very juicy... Good try bro...

How much lemon juice does it take to fill the jar? That looks like a lot of lemons to squeeze. Can you add a little water too?
