Springâs warmer temperatures coax sugar maple trees to turn stored starch back into sugar. Sap is made as the tree mixes ground water with the sugar. The sap is mostly crystal clear water with about 2% sugar. It takes 40 gallons of sap to make each gallon of maple syrup which has a sugar content of 66.9%.A typical sugaring season lasts 4 to 6 weeks.he sap is mostly crystal clear water with about 2% sugar.

Oxygen is the third most abundant element in the Universe today, and in the very, very far future, may even have the opportunity to rise further as hydrogen (and then possibly helium) falls from its perch.
Hydrogen, oxygen, Carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium. The element hydrogen is a gas, and it is the most abundant element in the universe. Most of the hydrogen on earth is combined with other elements. Hydrogen gas is so light that it easily escapes the earth's gravity at the upper edges of the atmosphere and is lost into outer space. Plants and animals are about 10 percent hydrogen by weight.
