Re: Tree tapping
I purchased some tree taps and a book as well, but to date, I have never tapped a tree. We have a local guy that does and buy his maple syrup.
Normally they tap the large sugar maple trees.
Less than good maple syrup people tap every tree on their property and this is why the stuff sold in stores today doesn't taste all that great.
The sap must be on the rise; this means you tap in January or Febuary with very cold nights and warmer afternoons as the sap will rise and fall each day and you catch it.
OTHERWISE, the ONLY tree we have local that HOLDS water is the cottonwood trees, man when you take a chain saw to get rid of one of these monster trees that trash your property; you can have 50 gallons of water come running out on your chain saw.
Tree sap may be one of the last herbal experiements to try.......you don't read about it! Our food is to come form the tree!!!!!!!!!!! Our medicine is to come from the tree!!!!!!!!!!! The water inside a tree, may be the fountain of life; I have no clue! its unexplored territory, it could easily be a cure for cancer, etc., etc., etc.
It is too easy to just pick the apples, the peaches, etc., etc. and thats why no one has messed with the sap. Making maple syrup is a 50-1 concentration, in that you boil away 49 gallons to get 1 gallon of finished product. I suggest we drink that 49 gallons UNCOOKED to know the power of the TREE. Go to the local maple syrup farm and buy 50 gallons of sap, it should only cost a dollar a gallon and they will think your NUTS, but take it home and freeze it and drink 1 gallon per week and I HAVE ZERO DOUBTS that it is HUMAN MEDICINE and the PERFECT CURE for what may be the missing link in human Longevity.
