    It is just before Christmas here in southern Ohio. I am tapping my trees now and will collect sap until early March. I usually have 12 to 15 taps and end up with about 3 gallons of maple syrup. @024 was a horrible year. It was just too warm here in January and February.

    Well said Ray, I couldn't agree more, that is how it is done. It does get trickier deep in the bush where you have big hollow spots on the trees or when you are on a steep hillside in your snowshoes trying to tap some trees but it is always good to be out there!

    The Earth is cooler with the atmos/GHGs/albedo not warmer. To perform as advertised the GHGs require “extra” energy upwelling from the surface radiating as a black body. (ua-cam.com/video/0Jijw7-YG-U/v-deo.html) The kinetic heat transfer processes of the contiguous atmos molecules render that scenario impossible. No greenhouse effect, no GHG warming, no man/CO2 driven climate change or Gorebal warming. Version 1.0 050122

  • @jayking3898

    Thank you very much for the video, I really enjoyed it. I’m in a similar situation to Dwight below and am i interested in the answer to his question as I wonder the same thing. I also sometimes struggle with the massive size of the bark seeing it’s such an old tree in getting a good seal on my health spile. The odd time I don’t even get into the good wood by an 1” because the bark itself can be 1”-2” deep alone. I’m not sure what the peaks and valleys are called in old bark, but could I carefully reduce some of the older bark to get closer to the good wood? Or should I just drill deeper? What would you do pls? The sugar content is so amazing in these huge trees and turns to syrup much faster than the sap from the smaller 30” trees. Thanks again.

    • @ontariomaplesyrupproducers6856
      @ontariomaplesyrupproducers6856 2 роки тому

      Hi Jay. Depends, but I would recommend carefully removing some of the largest chunks of bark where you want to tap. Some of the professional tapping hammers actually have a little hatchet type blade instead of a claw on the back of the hammer to help with this. Careful though, you don't want to injure the inner bark as that can create a large wound.

  • @dwightherrington7793
    @dwightherrington7793 2 роки тому

    So i have some maple trees that are huge some if them are about 7 ft across so i can tap all the way around those trees. All 4 sides of the trees not jyst the south side.

    • @ontariomaplesyrupproducers6856
      @ontariomaplesyrupproducers6856 2 роки тому

      It's always best to tap around the tree, not just on one side. The will run on the north side too, just a bit later than the south.

    Done in late April and early May? I don't know anybody who taps that long as a hobbyist. I'm in a pretty cold part of Canada and the runs are no longer any good for flow in the beginning of April. Night time lows are now in the positives with 17 degree day average daytime highs.

    • @johnwilliams4918

      Jason, Ray often runs that late in the Pembroke area. It just depends where you are and the weather during the season. Most producers will be finishing up now (April 8th) due to the warm weather this year.
