Description
During warm periods when temperatures rise above freezing, pressure develops in in the tree. This pressure causes the sap to flow out through a tap hole in the tree. During cooler periods when temperatures fall below freezing, suction develops, drawing water into the tree through the roots. This replenishes the sap in the tree, allowing it to flow again during the next warm period. Although sap generally flows during the day when temperatures are warm, it can flow at night if temperatures remain above freezing.
