I collected less that I would have expected yesterday and Tuesday, but I think it just has not been cold enough. Just my thought, but the sun is strong this time of year and with the ground thawing and not covered by snow, you need temps in the LOW 20s to get a good flow with temps in the 50s during the day. My low was about 25 both days and I don't think it got down to that until late in the night. I think it needs to be cold for longer than that.

I have several different bushes and the flow has been good at some and worse in others. Yesterday I was shocked to find a nearly empty tank that has 67 taps on it! At the same time, I had 80 gallons on a tank that has only 25 taps on it, but that had been since Sunday. I collected about 60 gallons of sap while a guy I buy sap from to my north of me (Clan Delaney) did not have much that day.
