Sap ran a bit today for me, but not enough to boil! My swamp - reds are still thawing out I guess, perhaps tomorrow will be better, I'm itching to boil.
Not quite enough

I checked today - out of 20 taps only about 1 gallon. I'm new and getting worried that I missed something. All are big reds of 24" or more. Maybe they just haven't started?
Checked a run with 25 taps 0000000 hope I don't have a leak will check Wednesday but the others were 00000 can't believe but will wait I guess we have no choice???

Repeat for me of yesterday. I'm sitting on 65 gallons or so, not enough to monkey with yet. Perhaps tomorrow?

Not much for me today on my 14 taps. Had a small run yesterday and day before, and collected about 8 gal of sap, which I boiled down on my NG outfitted burner and steam pan and got close to qt of syrup.
Good to see and taste the first batch, but concerned that night time temps look high for the next couple of nights.
Let's hope for the best.
Nice! It's coming
