It depends upon the sugar content in the sap, which varies according to different times of the season, which species of maple you have tapped, and even from tree to tree within the same area.

Last season in Indiana, the AVERAGE amount of sap needed to make 1 gallon of syrup was 42 gallons.

"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
