How many hours can a tree run ???
How many hours can sap run if temps don't go below freezing?
I ask due to my weather forecast tomorrow.
Freezing outside right now and will continue freezing all through tonight, ( trees just starting to wake up for the season) , temps and sunny tomorrow are perfect.
The problem is no freezing temps tomorrow night.
Will sap run all day and all through tomorrow night also? How many hours straight can a tree run ?
Thanks.
