Last Week Near Starvation, This Week Plugged Out. The Honey Flow Has Hit Like a BRICK

[@jorris862]

Hi Ian here’s a new joke to change it up a little. Or rather a limerick: The bee has such a busy soul It has no time for birth control That is why, in times like these, There are so many sons of bees Good luck for the rest of your season and greetings from southern France.

Like a fine wine, the king honey bee joke just gets better with time

Giddy Ian showing off his toys is kind of a joy to watch

Hola que lindas que están 👏👏👏👏🐝😃 mucha miel

[@mikehill9888]

I see it is raining in Miami. Great for the crops and the Honey flow😊.

[@larrytornetta9764]

Great idea on weighing boxes. Get some cards and stick on the fronts of boxes so you can determine which queens are the honey producers.

[@WellesbourneHoneyCo]

Yay, cheered my day up... Just never gets old.

Big boys and big new toys, nutten wrong with that, Congrats.

This is what the new generation will not understand in order for a business to grow. You have to make lots of sacrifices and lots of time and money for it grow. lan Puts a lot of time and money into his operation. Very impressed with this guy's operation always enjoyed watching his videos

[@markvincent4921]

You are in a good mood :)

[@billybobbarker3175]

Has help and the flow is on. Every keeping is in a good mood when the money (honey) is flowing in and can basically coast and watch it happen while the minions sweat buckets tossing boxes. The “beekeeping” season is over and the box slinging has begun.

If you have a scale maybe you can write the weight on the front lip of the hive lid going in to the shed then in the winter walk thru and record

Good Morning! It's 8 AM in Gatineau, QC.

[@edcoffin3514]

That should be the first question before you hire someone, " do you mind being on KZbin "😅😅😅

[@mikehill9888]

78 degs and light rain 😂

[@eem8039]

These are good news indeed 😂

[@kennith.]

Things are looking decent. Glad you found the issue with the boom. I am sure that boom parking "trick" is in the manual.(My wife keeps telling me I need to read the manuals) The slow ramp up, is there a way to clamp a meter on there and see the current flow and see if the current slowly ramps or is it the same current from start. IF the current is slow then ramps up and the motor speeds up, maybe u could have a capacitor in there to store some current to give that instant pickup?

The 6 week flow in NJ ended just as yours started.

[@lomavistabeeco]

Something tells me that there should be a EZ Loader satellite office in Miami….just thinking out loud here

[@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog]

Oh no, I had the opportunity to be the distributor but I don’t have the time to sell loaders. Do you realize how many guys (just like me) complaining about service issues?! Lol An Ezyloader sales man would be a time consuming job

[@jenohrasko6390]

Hello Ian! My question: how do you clean your plastic foundations?!

[@MinnesotaBeekeeper]

Increasable potential in weighing those hives/supers, wow! Ian what does you and the crew use for smoker fuel?

[@carriemartindale-wetherup5243]

Tree bark!

[@claudesully]

I am out of boxes, bees everywhere, honey honey honey... If you are not totally happy with the new machine... I will take it off your hands... I am glitchy and slow, so it would be a good match🤣😂🤣😂🤓

[@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog]

Lol

[@danielweston9188]

Bees are designed to take advantage of just this type of forage swing....

[@aaronparis4714]

Would you be willing to sell me some of Karrie’s queens for next season ???? Maybe 😅

[@eugenstorozhev2303]

Will the sunflower work this year?

[@jayschuon8330]

Hi Ian , a question. What do you do with wet extracted frames ? Do you let the bees clean them out before you store them for the winter?

[@dcsblessedbees]

Oh The Joke.

[@deanmalkewich2366]

Let me know if you have trouble with that park position. Mine will often keep rotating the arm well past it. I have to retry it a number of times before it finds it and allows the unit to drop.

[@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog]

Just started to use it, I’ll let you know

[@alanwatts9232]

Sounds like a faulty sensor.

[@wojciechjamiokowski2885]

Is there any reason that you changed to rubber excluders?

[@aCanadianBeekeepersBlog]

Run out of metal ones
