Sap flow has really slowed down this week and looks like little to no freezing weather for the next 6 days. Just curious to see how many have pulled their taps already? This is only my third year and have no experience with late syruping as I pulled my taps very early the last two years. All my trees are soft maples.
Thanks

This is our first year. Taps are still in. Wife says no sap today. Hoping yet for the weekend. Some friends pulled theirs on this past Sunday. Guessing you are in the Amherst area by your username?

100 gallons from 80 taps on 3/16 in past 24hrs. I'm borderline northern wi, but still south of 64.

Pulling my bags this weekend. Might leave the 3/16" lines up a little longer.

Couple weeks early but forecast not promising.

Our bags ain't doing much of anything but the vacuum has been slow but steady.

Did my final tally: 3/16 lines with a shurflo was 16 gals/tap, bags were 7 gals/tap. This was my first year with the 3/16. Next year no bags and one more line of 3/16.
