Southeastern Ohio Honey Bees & BBQ I hear ya , Ian damn sure got this down to a science practically,a season or two with him would definitely step my game up

Me Baker-Baggins Not flimsy

Thomas Paige One simply skims the strength which leaves the original in honey production shape, The other way strips all strength and leaves the original hive to rebuild

Thomas Paige mine winter in 6 , inside

Timothy Clemens nurse bees dont really have problems with each other, they normally get along.

Timothy Clemens The bees mix well

The OD are 1/3 of 3 full size box.

@@baazigaj9125, I have the same question and being ignorant on the topic have one question. If the box measures 1/3 of 3 full sizes boxes, why are they supered with 2 not three boxes?

Michael Josemans Yep

I see that it was the queen

Sebashtion H it will still work but you would want to make sure there is enough resources coming in it would definitely help them by giving them feed then they will draw out some nice new white comb.

Roscoe III Brumback may through July should be great. Get your queens back and mated. Feed them in august and treat for mites then let them build up and store up on the goldenrod and aster flow. Ours lasted a month this year. Was really helpful

Strive4impact he puts queens in his nucs

He has a lady that makes new queens in his back yard. LOTS of them.

Strive4impact we drop cells

hex0rz1 I’ll finish this week

Homestead Life , watch other previous videos, Ian describes well his yellow plugs

That hole allows the bees to feed from a bucket of food. See previous videos.

Сергій Сугак 2 frames of brood and 1 honey frame

kevin drury thanks

ЭКОПАСЕКА Интернет - магазин I cut that one into 2-4 nucs, fresh for next year. Then I have that queen reinstate her nest to winter or requeen. Always pull apart your bottom end.

...., I’m not interested in patting heads I’ve explained how and what I’m doing precisely, the rest is up to the watcher

What he is doing, the why, the how, and the when is very clear throughout. It may be important to recognize the differences in content and approach between commercial operation and backyarder. There is a tremendous amount to be learned on this blog, however you do have to have a foundational understanding about bees and beekeeping equipment first. Just like schooling or any other trade: you cannot walk into a university class and expect to know what's going on if you haven't completed the prerequisites. You cannot walk into the welding fabricating shop and used the machinery without going to trades school first. Perhaps that "Vino Farm" guy may be an alternative to watch. CBB-Ian, please do not change a thing!

Apini Ventures 👍

I find your videos very informative and interesting, carry on! You have a nice set up, honey extraction and the lift on the truck is such a work saver. I hope soon to get some bees but at the moment i am living vicariously though YOU !

You don’t know anything so you judge a man for knowing more? You are offended and let him know it because you don’t have enough basic knowledge to keep up? Why walk in as a novice and judge a professional who isn’t catering to you? If you don’t know the basics then go somewhere to learn them. Maybe a more basic channel or beekeeping for dummies. Maybe some basic effort on your part will give you a better view of how much this guy is giving back to the beekeeping community.

Just providing insight I’m not interested in patting heads
