Too warm is bad for maples but great for walnuts as they will run for days in a row with out freezing at night. They don't give as much but it is great syrup
Do you tap them like maples I planned on tapping a big one on our road. I always wanted to try there syrup.

Today is a great example of SW ont weather...started with freezing rain , then into heavy rain, then sleet, then heavy snow, then 15 mins of sunshine, more rain, now a nasty wind storm....it's now plus 2 degrees C.

Yes looks like nearly a week here of no freezing nights starting Saturday. A February thaw, except there's really nothing to thaw. No snow, no frost in the bush, and the swamps will barely hold you up. So much for winter.Originally Posted by MarkReynolds
