This is a weird year.
I collected 30 gallons of maple sap 20 from 2 silver maples and 10 from 2 red maple.
The one silver tested nearly 4% sugar and the other maples under 3%.
I got 60 gallons from the boxelders. But it was spotty, some had over flowing buckets others had nothing in the bucket. I did not test each boxelder but overall my sugar content on them was 3%. Which is higher than the maples.
I should get over a gallon of syrup tomorrow.
