Oh

hey doing this is mentioning to survival my little girl sophie was out here collecting some maple sap with 2014 Mars they do this one two three four you're right so several of these trees thank you my friend beginning some your sap several of them have given me quite a bit of SAP nearly all of these trees have a half gallon filled on them upset I've already come out here several times and harvested I have quite a few gallons already at home those are called princess pines and there's another one right there and I'll leave these on probably for another day or two before I take them off I'm supposed to get a four inches of snow tonight so we're going to get a little dusting so the trees might slow down their SAP for a couple days and when it starts warming up again we're still at 10 20 degrees and obviously below freezing at night when it when it starts to warm up again they'll stop producing SAP again so I think the trees are going to slow down for a little bit and will stop producing some more SAT probably next week so I'm going to give these a few more days and then I'm going to let the trees have the rest of the SAP I don't like taking sap from them the whole time you know I think it's like a sharing situation not a taking situation and a walk okay put them up with some of sad day for some guy just oh yeah this is still half frozen is it's cold during the day I'm still in freezing temps right now yeah so I'm going to pour off what I can leave the rest so I wanted to get to full too heavy for the tree because when it gets real heavy it can it can pull on the rope and it might slide down a little bit and then the drips might miss so I like to remove someone i can if i do it during the day then some of it is melted that tree just dripped so i just wasted that trip yeah i'll just tripped again so i'm gonna go fast and for the sin like missing any because it's very disrespectful to the tree it's giving its app for me to just let it drip on the grounds ok
