2 beekeepers are in a bar. One asks, "what would it be like playing Russian roulette with an eight cylinder pistol instead of a six"? The second thinks a minute and replies, like using Apivar at 50 days"?

I was out getting some honey frames today and suddenly realized that the two colonies I have are enough. It's a lot of work. Immediately I thought of your yards and had increased respect for the amount of work you do. I know it's a group but man, ALOT of work.

Every year is always different - keeps us on our toes! Figuring it out as it happens and continue looking at the forecast ahead. Here in south central PA looks to be dry through the end of August which unfortunately is the beginning of aster and goldenrod bloom - some rain would be nice been too hot and dry this year.

Fall is right around the corner, with the way my bees are behaving I'm wondering if it might be a shorter Fall this year. Sometimes congestion can get the work done, it seems to focus that work force well. Blessed Days Ian and Crew...

Ian, What is your recommendation for mowing weeds and grass around the bees hives? Is a certain time of the day better than another?

Hello Ian, whats the reason why they would not swarm with so many bees in a single box?

@jacquesbaker1557 4 ай бұрын

Because it’s too close to winter and the new colony would not survive.

@killlinepestcontrol 4 ай бұрын

How about putting a box of foundation on. If the flow is mild they'll plug the spaces available. If it's strong they'll draw and fill the foundation?

Those crown boards with a hole people use, or just a piece of plastic with a 3/4 hole in the back put on the excluder between boxes makes them bring the honey down in the nest.. clean the top box. Is alpha-alpha good for winter food ? Or the mix of flow you have at the moment. Could it be used instead of syrups ? Or it all gets hard

Are you still able to treat your bees with antibiotics (OTC)?

@hamburghoney 4 ай бұрын

I really wish we did not have to treat the bees. they are bringing in a ton of goldenrod, but we have to get the supers off in order to have time to treat with apigaurd and feed for the winter. What a conundrum. Do you have much golden rod up there?

@dcsblessedbees 4 ай бұрын

Ian do you see that robbing kick up if you work brood of an evening? I have wondered about doing my Fall inspections and Brood Work more of an evening near sun down to help cut down on issues. With you years of experience I figure you have worked bees of in the evening plenty of times, does it help any?

I see dandelions and sweet clover popping up here now in Northern Alberta.

All the early ditch mows are giving sweet clover, some dandelions and alfalfa. Golden rod is starting on its second - late variety blossom so lots of fuzzy bee legs and fat bees coming back .

consider a treatment with hopps guard 3 when you pull the first time . in the states you can use hopps guard with honey supers on. it is not perfect but give a knock down before the bees that will raise the winter bees are laid

I allwais feel that the bees from supers are a waist to be left on the mother colony after the last honey pull with them and some protein and sirup you can gain 4 to7 frames (a nuc) like you did last year.

He already did one round of that - filled all the empty hardware - brood box's he had available and dropped new queens in them. Also he's running full speed into his staff leaving for school so some jobs/projects just can't be done in the time he has available. I'm sure if he could do it again he would since a $40.00 queen is more economic than a $300.00 package. Quadruple Crunch Time on the farm: Honey Harvest - Apiary Winter prep - Grain Harvest - Beef Cattle feed and bedding work. He (his family) help with other areas on the farm that he doesn't post about.

Ian...You said the "treatments will come off mid-October" - it sounds like you are using Apivar-6 weeks strips? I remember last year.. that didn't work good for you... (no decreased mite loads) 🙂I'm just curious Why are you using them again this year?
