I have a friend who wants me to provide bees for his seedless watermelons.
I'm not sure how to manage it though.  He's going to plant an acre or two
each month through August.  Can I use the same colonies for each successive
of planting?  If so, wouldn't I have to feed them after a while, and what
would that do as far as pollinating his melons?

Thanks
