The folks complaining about you taking all the honey and not leaving any for the bees, don't understand how this works. That is what the other one or two boxes are for. You don't leave the flow super on during the winter. You all did a great job congrats. You don't get that kind of production without being great beekeepers

Can you tell me how you start one of these? If this only for professionals? Because I am NOT lol. I know you buy the hive and it’s like 800$ but how do you get bees in it? Do you just set it up in ur yard pour honey on it and hope bees come? We r wanting to start a garden as well and bees are great for gardens? Where does a newbie start?

That's great, but what about the honey going all through the hive, causing all that clean up in the first place? Not liking that at all. Bees can drown from having puddles of honey in their hive. If the Flow frames can't be made to not leak through the hive at all, then it's a very bad design. The normal method of harvesting honey is gonna disturb them a lot less than making them clean their entire hive of all that honey that you've just spilled everywhere.

I have not read all 928 comments, the ones I have read have missed one important point. It takes the bees far more energy to make wax than honey. By not having to rebuild comb such as with a top bar hive or rebuild much of it with a langstroth hive they can produce more honey in a flow hive over a given season. Any time there is change people bad mouth it. Time will tell if this works or not. If the plastic holds up, If the bees prosper.

There is no way to test the moisture content in the honey frame until you're committed to eating it all. I saw no refractometer in the video therefore I assume there's a chance that once in the jars it could ferment. There are flaws in the flow hive and I only described one.

great video! We have a flow hive (here in Australia) and also had some honey leak down and through the hive. We found if you crack the frames in increments- it is not only easier to turn the handle- but if you wait 5 minutes between increments the flow is not so great- the tube doesn't fill entirely and less honey leaks. You could also place a few bits of wood under the front of the hive to increase the tilt towards the rear so the honey flows out faster. Also if you remove the coreflute bottom- and place a metal or plastic tray there you can catch the honey and put the tray in front of the hive for the bees to clean up once you are done. Happy Flow Hivnig!

This is an older video so I am going to assume that you learned from the few mistakes you made with your flowhive. The first being that you have to tip the hive back to extract your frames the second which is not your mistake but a glitch in the the design of the flow hive is that the very first harvest will result in some honey loss through the hive. As the bees build up and propalyze the flow frames this becomes a non issue with all subsequent harvests. Great video and fantastic harvest.

I know absolutely nothing about Bee Keeping, so be gentle. Came across this Flow Hive while watching something else ... and I find it a very, VERY cool innovation. Anyhow, from what I have learned watching numerous Flow Hive vids, apparently after the 1st harvest the bees wax-up that area near the flow holes, which prevents that issue of loss in your flow... and the 2nd harvest would be even higher yield, less mess/"waste"(gets recycled anyhow). ALSO, I believe you were supposed to move that bottom panel (the "drip tray" as I would think of it) to the upper slot. Nice job ... I sure do love honey. LOL. Good luck!

David Evans | If you want to start a colony from scratch, you'll need some workers, a few drones, and a queen. Bee careful, though. Pre-made colonies might not accept a new queen.

I don't know if anyone else has said this already, but the reason it's leaking at the bottom is that you didn't have your board on the top level. : ) Honey will inevitably drip down, but if you have the board up then the bees can catch and reuse the dripped honey. The FlowHive KZbin channel did address this issue.

Zak White when I was a kid a honey bee colony moved into a tree beside our house. We called a bee keeper and he came to remove the bees and relocate them to his hives. He pulled some honeycomb from the tree for us and the honey was really warm and flowed like that from the bees warming it.

lol bee keeping is sustaining bees not killing them.. what is killing them is the invasive nature of people, planting huge fields with no flowers, using pesticides, taking more and more land. The bees have to fly throught kilometers of field without food because we plant plants they can't feed on,

natalio ramirez when the bees are swarming like they were when she showed us the front of the hive they are in the most docile state. You can even grab handfuls of bees and not get stung. It's because they swarm to keep the queen bee alive and make like a weird ball thing around her. They won't attack because if they do they die and they would have less bees protecting the queen.
