Had a visit from a peeper frog and a leopard frog in the shanty tonight.
How is your sap running? Close to end?
SuzukiSapper, had a big run Monday, and now catching up on that. I think it might be over. 0 tonight and AccuWeather says it will start freezing again by the 20th. I think that might be too long and too warm till then.
How long does it typically take a tree to start budding? My sap hasn't flowed in a few days now but it looks like it will drop below freezing next week. Just wondering how long I should hold out before packing it in. With what sap I have available to boil right now, I will be lucky to get 2 gallons of syrup out of my 64 taps.
My feelings as well. hopefully, my tendency toward procrastination will result in one more go round.
It over pulling the taps tonight last year we were just putting the taps in this week. Sure glad we tapped Jan 31 it was the best run of the season
Maple season is in full swing hear, froze up last night negative 3 and reached plus 6 this afternoon. 125 taps gave up 320 l sap today and with aprox same temp tonight and tomorrow, hope that Saturday colection just might be the best of the year. Finished off 34 l of syurp so far this season, and with these temps hope to keep the stove firing and make it to the 60 l mark.
What a day, 3- 200 l drums and a sap pail , all in one day. My 2 x 4 pan only boils off 25-30 l an hour, today's run of sap will keep the steam flying for a couple of days.
