Two of my test taps were dripping about once every second.

I tapped 14 more trees and 4 of the 14 had a stream of sap coming out as soon as I inserted the tap.


2 buckets were half full after about 4 hours being tapped.


Not a lot of folks make syrup in this part of the country, but after making two whole pints last year.....IM HOOKED ! ! !

Awesome! Where in TN are you? I have some ties in TN, but none that make syrup.

Good for you. Hope your season is great. Expecting 4-8 inches of snow tonight and temp not above freezing all week in my neck of the woods.
