OLJ dont you sleep?:) Have you tapped yet?
Got my sap ladder done. Tapped 100 clear check spouts. Have 6 basketball games today so hoping to tap the other 230-250 vacuum taps in the morning. Lots of hissing from squirrel chews and leaky saddles. Still getting about 15" at the releaser despite these leaks and several drop lines completely open and hanging.
just put in 150 taps today
183 tapped on vac today. Hope to get the other 148 in the morning. Then still need to wash my tanks. Still not sure if im putting out buckets this year.
got all taps in yesterday will probly start pump in a few hrs then look for those little leaks . may everyones season go stress free and please keep pierre delfranconie in your prayes he is having back surgery on monday and has 2000 taps out .
We have 223 in so far should get the rest in today
I'm in!, 350 tapped today and I'll finish tomorrow with another 100!
Itchin to go and have one out to see what's going on... but not a drop today. It looks too too windy monday and tuesday for me, wednesday and thursday look awesome but look at fri-sat and sunday...back in the freezer again with highs at 26-28 and lows of 20-23. Today would have been an ideal day to be in the woods, and I may kick myself for not going for it, but there's alot of good weather ahead.
I am about fully tapped with about 325 on vac. However, I am having problems with my water pump connected to my electric releaser so they are running on gravity tight now. Hope to get the vac going again tomorrow.
now that it seems everyone is tapped what kind of "runs" are you guys getting ? how is the syrup? whats your sugar count? just curious. I will be tapping by weeks end. looks like a decent forcast nxt. week.
