Well, I got in 12 more taps today. All dripping well. Long term forecast looks pretty good, with perhaps a couple of daytimes below 0.
So I'll probably just keep putting in more during the week.
Seems early. But with the few taps I have, I don't want to risk having a super short season and trees budding out by the 3rd week of March.
