It would be an interesting test. You could do 50/50 mix and see if there is a difference.

Maple Webinar Scheduled for June 2nd
Cornell Maple Program Invites Your Participation in a Cornell Maple Webinar on June 2nd, titled “2011 Maple Tubing and Taphole Sanitation Research” presented by Stephen Childs, New York State Maple Specialist. This webinar will feature the results of research conducted on maple tubing and spouts during the 2011 sap season. A number of comparisons of various methods of keeping the taphole clean and sanitary to improve sap yield were conducted including new spouts and drops, second season spouts and drops, check valve spouts, silver spouts, and sanitized drops, on both a vacuum system and gravity system. Knowing these results can be very helpful in making future decisions about your sap collection system.
The Cornell Maple Program is providing webinars on the first Thursday of the month from 7 to 8 pm. A webinar link is available at www.CornellMaple.com. Participants need to have an internet web browser and a high-speed internet connection. Participation in each webinar is available on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are particularly interested in a webinar topic, please plan to connect at least 20 minutes prior to the start time. Before each webinar, participants will be asked to register into a database so we can monitor the value of the webinars and their geographic extent. No pre-registration is required.
The interactive nature of the webinar is the opportunity to ask questions of the presenter in a real time venue. No additional hardware is required. Virtually all current computers already have a Flash player installed, which is used by the web conferencing software. Access to the web site that hosts the internet seminars is free of charge. Your standard Internet connection charges would still apply. Group host sites may have a registration fee. We are not able to assist users with problems they may have with their computer, connections, or connection speed.
County Extension Offices are encouraged to participate as a group host site as many maple producers do not have high speed intranet connections required for this type of transmission. These webinar programs are not intended to replace or reduce the current maple schools or in county workshops. If you are interested in servicing as a group host site for a maple webinar please notify Stephen Childs by e-mail at slc18@cornell.edu. The list of host sites will be available at the Cornell website. You can access the on line conference site directly at http://breeze.cce.cornell.edu/cornellmaplewebinar at any time.
Past maple webinars can be accessed through the www.cornell.edu webpage. The June 2nd webinar will be recorded there as well for future reference.

I have viewed the past conferences and learned a lot that's for sure. I never have participated in a live one, looking forward to giving it a try tonight.
Been there done that, have the scars and the MRI to prove it!
