Hi George and All,
George hit on the most important part of beekeeping.
Pay attention to the bees.Do not get caught up in what the book
or anything that might be told to you, that is fixed to time.
What is happening in the box is what counts.
I spend a lot of time in my bees.I can see many variations in the hive in
the same yard.
You are working with Nature. The Sun will not shine on April 1 st. every
year.
The more time you spend in the bees, the more you will learn.
They are the teacher. Read and then look for yourself.
Best Regards
Roy Nettlebeck
