It should be good the next few days
Tonight wednesday -5 tomorrow +12!!supposed to be like that every day till Sunday !!!:D
Stupid weather is weird here.Some trees ran well and some didn't give a drop.I found it cold but with the sun things did okay.Even the stupid skunks are wierd around here.I was poking one in the head with a gun barrel on the back step trying to get it to go out away from the house so I could shoot it.All it did was snap at me.Then it left and came back to tick me off again. Skunk 3 now me zero.
Collect 140 litres of sap today, boiled all i have, make another 10 liters of syrup. Good freeze tonight, +10c tomorrow, still have 2ft snow on ground everywhere.
Trees ran well today again.Tomorrow will be a busy day boiling off all my sap .The forecast is for no freezes here for the next week or so so will probbably end by Sunday.At least I have my winters supply made.
The CO-OP had lots of supplies left this year so I would guess it has been a lack luster season so far as by this time any other year they are sold out of everything.
collect 120 litres this morning, trees ran a little this afternoon, freeze preview (-2c) for tonight. Will collect and boil tomorrow morning.
Never froze here last night but did get to zero and the trees did semi okay.Some did better then others.I boiled all day and made another couple of gallons of syrup and then boiled enough to have the pans ready for tomorrow.Still have about 90 gallons left to boil.
Tonight will be pretty warm and no frost forecast for a while so probbably finished pretty soon.Some trees won't last a week with out budding out.
What a crappy year, it was too cold last week & now it looks like it is too hot!!!
I have about 70 gallons of sap for next weekend, and I doubt we will get any sap this week looking at the forecast
did alright this weekend though, made about 2 gallons on Saturday, and a gallon & a half today
collect 120 litres sap, trees never give more, no overflowing buckets this year. Boilled another 4 hours, make 10 liters syrup this afternoon.
Visit new building of Milan's Mayor, 22,000 taps operation. 6x16 oil fired evap, and all tanks, pumps, R.O. 4 big interior bassin, 20 fts height ceilings. very different of my setup...
Okay how do you keep sap for a week. Not a drop of sap today here and yesterday was a slow day with no frost friday night. Probbably the end as no frost forecast for over a week .
