For the most part most of the hives are looking pretty good. Considering those hives got little to no attention I would say they are survivor stock if they make it through the rest of the winter. Thanks for sharing my friend.
Hey👋👋glad your back.the lack of rain can cause poor pollen and nectar in the fall i use regular patties they need the nutrients. I also insulate my inner covers just common sense .putting wood chips and other things in to absorb mositure is backwards .its storing mositure 🤔doesnt take a rocket scientist to understand that. Air flow and keeping the warm and cold reaction on inner cover stops excess moisture period!!!!.Ill be watching for videos always enjoy your content. 🐝safe and keep your smoker lit! Konrad
Do you have trouble with the wrong type of bees? I read that they don't like to go very far north because they can't take the cold. I am trying to learn about the bees.
Great Videos! Keep em coming! Question. : you mentioned you use Apivar and OA. Are you using OA in the fall and Apivar in spring? If You use Apivar in spring, how early are you treating where you are.? ie. Are you treating now?
