Looking at February 14ish … no earlier …
Any sap you get between now and then is more of a nuisance sap … can't get enough to RO it and don't like boiling raw sap …
So we will just wait …
Got stuff to do to gat ready anyway …. get tanks out … get the RO ready … clean the sugarhouse …
We usually keep the taps in until mid April … so plenty of time …
