You're the nurse, you figure it out! hehe :-) oh btw I looked at my records for 2013 when I put taps in Feb 23....and got a punky lil run of 14.5l sap. Also the forecast shows cloudy weather for most of the coming week, my trees are all pretty big and take much longer to thaw out. They like sunny weather. So still holding off. So there! nyah! ;-)
Been tapping since 2008.
2018 - 17 taps/7 trees...819l sap, approx 28l syrup
2019 - 18 taps/8 trees...585l sap, 28l syrup...21:1 ratio
