Attaching spouts to drops early?
So last year I attached my spouts to my drop lines right before I tapped. I had great yields but the problem I encountered was that with the tubing so cold and my hands so cold it was a pill to do. I would like to attach them this Autumn before it gets to the cold of winter to make things easier when tapping but I would only do that if it will not affect my yields.
Thoughts?
