Are you sure that's Gad?

If so, he's a little off his game.

Hey Ben, Partials are usually left for winter feed. Tho, so long as the honey is capped, it's good to harvest. It's the open cells of nectar that you want to avoid. When they cap it, it's good for long term storage. And that's another issue with the flow hive. Without opening the hive up, you have n...

A healthy hive ready to reproduce or swarm will raise dozens and swarm queens are the best. A collapsing hive may. If queen is failing they will attempt to replace her and do hedge their bets. Some strains (primorsky or "russian") will tend to be starting replacements all the time. It seem...

Nuts,

Here I was innocently expecting the post to continue with "...... walk into a bar...... "

Joke's on me.

Hey Ben, Yes, unfortunately I have. Varroa Destructor is the bane of keeping bees these days. Fortunately I am in a rural, non-agricultural area, and there is plenty of pesticide-free bee pasture and I've been spreading sweet clover seed in the utility right-of-ways for years. The mites got ahead of...

Yep, and I'm waiting to see how flow hives will function long-term. My bet is they won't. In this micro-climate (temperate w/cold winters), I would worry that a flow hive would get sealed to death with all the propolis. You wouldn't believe how much of the stuff they collect late-summer, early fall....

This is bizarre, bees have no interest in female cannabis flowers normally. link: Man trains bees to collect cannabis resin I've kept honey bees since I was a pup. Bees love male flowers as pollen is "steak" to a honeybee. Nectar is an energy drink and is used to make honey as a energy sou...
