I took my buckets down again today. I took them down last Sunday as well - then I was dumping 1-2 gallons out of each one. I put them back up on Tuesday hoping 2 or 3 days around 40 would help some sap to run. Today, I gathered a whole 8.5 gallons. Even though accuweather shows we got to 40 on Wednesday and Friday and we were upper 30's today, almost nothing ran. The forecast on accuweather now calls for 45 on Saturday and then 40's the next week - there's something to look forward to!
