Ditchwitch, The buckets hold 12 qts. our rule of thumb on smaller trees is if the trunk is bigger than the top of the bucket we will put one tap in it. If a tree is big enough so that a guy like me with long arms, can't reach around it and touch fingers, we will hang two buckets if the tree is totally healthy. Our family has tapped trees in this bush for nearly 10 decades. We have a very few trees that we hang 3 buckets on. When the buds start to swell on the limbs, it is time to pull the taps and end the season. Usually the first or second week of April, depending on winter snow and temp. during March. The holes are left open to heal naturaly. The buckets will fill in 12 hrs. when weather conditions are near perfect. ( below freezing overnight and in the 40's during the day, and very important factor lots of melting snow going into the ground that the trees can asorb and sent up to their canopy. Hope I covered all your questions. Loren
