You Can Make Syrup From Black Walnut Trees? What?

[@veronicavanzo4158]

I love it! The neighbor’s dog did it! 😂adorable 🐾🐾🐾♥️

[@sherrelcarlson9200]

A dog stole your buckets😂 good grief lol!! Better than a human! Good luck ❤ love the videos❤

My syrup is a lot darker and the starting sap was just as light as yours...and unless you checked your sugar content you may need to reduce it a little more...carefully. This is my second year of doing this and frankly am blown away at the results...who knew.

[@FromScratchRanch]

I am in process now for our second year of making syrup and will be cooking this weekend. I invested a little more in better equipment this year including buying a hydrometer so I can get it just right. I tapped 35 trees this year.

[@dennyliegerot4021]

@@FromScratchRanch fantastic... unfortunately my tree options are limited,. Luckily I have great neighbors... which resulted in about 18 trees. Last year it was just an experiment I had to see for myself...those damn KZbin videos...and I started late, but the results were encouraging. This year's total was just under 2 quarts...but very tasty at about 66-68 percent sugar.

I have black nuts trees in the property! Omg I’m so excited I’m getting my drill and gonna try to tap some syrup! Thank you for your video. And I’m gonna follow to see what had happened to your buckets (I’m thinking that someone that watches your videos and lives nearby you, is doing a prank on you!)

[@johngalt2506]

I have 22 trees on my property. Going to try it out this year!

[@keithgarrett1306]

I just started doing this myself and i will be doing it again this year but on a larger scale.

Time to go plant an army of Black Walnuts

[@ronsilva516]

That’s intresting I know ther are few other trees you can do that too i know sycamore trees you can do that to it, too

[@jacksobe]

The other question is, does this affect your black walnut harvest later in the year . . . ?

[@thewoodpost]

Wow I did not know that you could do that was a black walbut the black walnut I use it for woodworking. Heck with woodworking and here comes the Sarah Lol

[@kentuckyleisure4289]

Does the flavor of the syrup have any flavors of the black walnut tree or the walnut meat itself or is it just super sweet?

[@johngalt2506]

You get a hint of a nutty flavor.

[@Ivan.A.Churlyuski]

I got 6,000 walnut trees and trying to find a way to make some money since the price of walnuts fell out.

[@heritageoutdoorsproduction2460]

Incorporate them into a staple food for you, make stain, make syrup, im sure there’s more ideas

[@aharri381]

Did you discover what happened to your buckets? I believe someone stole them. Can you make a follow up video on what happened to your buckets?

[@FromScratchRanch]

In the video I do show setting up trail cameras and catching the thief around minute 11. I then talk about what happened at minute 15.

[@kentuckyleisure4289]

You should watch the entire video before you ask questions

[@aharri381]

How many days did it take before you collected the Walnut Sap?

[@FromScratchRanch]

I am in process now for my second year and a bigger operation since it proved to be so good last year in my test. I have 35 trees now tapped this year and will be cooking this weekend. It doesn't take long to get some sap. Some days I get 1 to 2 gallons of sap in a day per tree from the older and bigger trees. Once you tap the tree and if the time and air temps are right, you will get sap right away. I also sometimes collect every day, especially on the warmer days. I do not want it spoiling so I collect it and put it in a deep freezer until I can cook it all at once.

[@matthewkingsman5800]

Im just a bit north of you, SW Missouri, when did you tap your trees? I think I heard you mention that it was almost spring?

[@rockmack7343]

fyi Hickory makes a dellicious syrup too.

[@TerryJonesPrinterRepairs]

The question is can I do this to any Australian trees without their sap killing you.

[@1stCamarillo]

THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO MY PROPERTY IS COVERED WITH BLACK WALNUT TREES ,OUT OF CURIOSITY HAVE YOU EATEN THE WALNUTS?

[@davegladys9820]

I have a bunch of black walnut trees as well and the nuts are great! I really like them. The challenge is opening them as it’s one of the toughest shells! Do your research on how to crack them open

[@ShaneSaxson]

I can tell you right now it’s not reduced enough. Flows too easily.
