Finally tapped ! North central Ohio

[newmod]

I finally got 35 trees tapped last night. Gonna tap another 35 tomorrow. It looks like its going to be a great week coming for the sap to flow. I probably could have collected some the past few days if I had been tapped . oh well

Where exactly are you located? I'm Wakeman Oh. We put 95 taps out last Sunday and putting 405 more out this coming Sunday.

I am in Loudonville, About 20 minutes south of Ashland. I guess I am TECHNICALLY between north central Ohio, and central Ohio. So what would that be called? lol

Good luck and have fun making syrup!!!

It seems someone from Northwest Ohio should chime in once in a while - according to the number of posts on the maple sites there must only be two us. I did put most of my buckets out last Saturday. On Wednesday I got to gather some sap for the first time. There was more there than I thought there would be but not enough to light a fire. They ran about 1.5 qt/tap. It was good to be able to dump some buckets again - looking forward to doing more of it in the next week. I will finish tapping tomorrow.

Anyone else already tapped or tapping this weekend?

[mapleguy]

I have been tapped in with my tubing since Monday of this past week. Hoping to put out some buckets this weekend where I can get to the trees. Others will have to wait til maybe late in the week. Could be a very short season.

I tapped 35 trees yesterday this will be my first time ever making syrup on a homemade barrel evaporator I'm a hour north of columbus

I have a total of 70 trees tapped and only got about 18 gallons of sap today. Hopefully it starts running hard tomorrow
