I have 7 small maple trees I have been tapping and get enough syrup for our own use. It's forecast to be in the 50s for at least the next week and may even stay above freezing at night. It should be in the 20s this time of year and the 50s should arrive in April. My question is do I start tapping now or do I wait and assume/hope winter returns and plan on tapping around late March and April as normal. I know the date can vary and the tapping is normally when day time temperatures are above freezing and night time is below freezing.
