Tapping Wolf

There are a few red maples i wasn't planning on tapping this year but with this warm spell I decided to hang a couple buckets to see if the sap is running and what the sap hydrometer was reading....I was was getting 2.2 on all five of them....i plan on tapping in about three or four weeks after the next freeze and thaw (provided the conditions are right)...hope the rest of my reds are running at 2% or higher then since they are 70% plus of my total sugar bush
