Alright finally heading up this weekend to tap as I am going to be away for March break. The long range is looking good right now. I hope I didn't miss too much of the season with these early runs....
Hey there Electrorecycler are those taps you put in running? I worried I am missing a run. I will be putting my taps in over the next couple of weekends if the forecast looks good.
No not yet. I hope I do not regret it. I did dig out the evaporator and am making some modifications to the arch.
Hey there NTBugtraq I am just up the road from you south of Minden. I made 15 liters on Saturday. It was my biggest day ever, but was only about 8 hours of boiling on my 2x4 flat pan. I have about...
Hey that is great. I have not tapped yet. Planning to do it Saturday. Hopping to do around 60 taps this year. Looks like the cold is coming back for the next couple of weeks so I might still have...
Anyone tapping in Minden Haliburton area. I just put a test tap on a 20 inch sugar maple. Just starting to ooze.
Hey Gang. Anyone still going at thins point. Had a great boil last weekend. Made 15 Liters of the best tasting syrup so far this year. I am hoping that I can get one more boil this weekend.
Yes I am hoping for big things this easter weekend. I was away last week so need to catch up. I am just worried that I will arrive to blocks of ice in my buckets on friday.
the forcast looks a...
That is great. I put in 50 on Sunday so I assume I have the same. I better get my butt north. Is it still running today?
Thank for the info!!
Got my taps in on saturday. How was the run today?
How was the flow today
Nice work. I am tapping first thing tomorrow morning. Only have 50 to 60 to get in. Let the season begin!!
Me too. Looks like we could get a good run on Monday.
Hey gang. I am a little further north of NTBugtraq in Minden, and am tapping this weekend. I had one test tap in an 18 inch DBH that has not really done much yet so I think we are ok. These posts...
Well got back from a trip down south on sunday to find about 500 l of sap and about another 200 l of ice blocks. I am going to get my boil on!!!!!
Sitting in the palm trees last week, and under...
I got 50 taps in this weekend, and now I am panicking, because I am going away for march break. Looks Like I am due for a sick day later this week. Anyone have any updates for this area.
Well I plan to start tapping in Minden this weekend. I will be away march break, and hope to come back to brimming buckets.
Collected about 60 gallons this morning since Sunday. Hoping for another 60 by friday. All but one tree running well
I use 4 gallon buckets on drop tubes. That way I have a little more wiggle room. My buckets are dug down in the snow to try to keep them cool. The only problem I have had this year is the number of...
Hey there guys. I left my bush in Minden on Sunday afternoon with about 45 of 60 taps running at full tilt. I collected about 35 gallons, and stashed it in a snow bank. I cannot get back up there...
I have had about 50 buckets out since the week before march break, and over the last 2 weeks got about 20 gallons of sap and 3 5 gallon buckets of ice chunks. Looking to boil this weekend though. I...
Well off to Atkinson Maple Syrup Supplies this morning. Need some tubing and final supplies. I plan to tap half of my planned 50 taps because I am a weekend warrior and was banking on march break...
Up herein the frosty north I have had no problem holding it around for the week and boil on the weekends. I keep it in two plastic 45gallon barrels in the shade and packed with snow. I try to spread...
