>>>What do you think about the inner cover? Screened vs board <<< The inner lid is used to keep the outer lid from being propolized to the hive and allow smoking before opening the complete top.

Small cell is liked by many, but is still a personal choice procedure. If you want to start with sc, I plan to be at the Feb. 8 class and the Feb. 13 GCBA meeting. I have both deep and medium frames from Reel's. If you want to trade your waxed frames for empty frames, I will trade with you. Then you...

I use FGMO and thymol.
Yes, it is quiet. We are having trouble getting people to use the forum. Kurt and I do most of the posting. Hopefully it will increase as time goes by.

I don't use sc myself, but from what I have read, you must go from lc to natural cell, or 5.1 mm cell, then down to 4.9 mm from there. It is a two step process, normally taking two years. Yes, it is done ten frames, "1 box" at a time.

Hello, ski

That's what I've been told, so we will just show up and if it's different, we'll crash the party.

I will be going to Marion to Reel's within the next week or two to pick up boxes and frames. If you want me to pick up for you, call me at 336-302-2708.

Merry Christmas to you and yours, Kid. Glad to see you came back to the forum.

And Merry Christmas to Jclately and everyone else.

I am of the opinion that the great success of the party came from great leadership, hard work of the leaders, and a group of leaders that really care enough to put their heart into it.
Thank you all, and Merry Christmas to you.

Well, I see you made it to Beesource, also. Welcome to it, too. I'll be watching for your posts.

It's a great hobby. Just be careful with the kids. My son had his own hives at 14, then one sting, probably his hundredth in 3 years, sent him to hospital with anaphylactic shock. Do your homework and keep an epi-pen on hand if you are more than 10 minutes from a hospital or medical facility. My gra...

http://www.betterbee.com/products.asp?dept=378 This is just one supplier that offers it. I'm sure there are many more. No, it isn't a closed site. You are more than welcome to post, converse, even argue now and then if you wish. Hang around, and who knows, maybe we can learn a few things from you, e...

With Chuck, Frank, Curtis, and Jack in our back yard, I don't understand why anyone would want to ship from outside the area.
I think we should try to keep our money at home.

A request to them for a constant update concerning availability may be in order.

Any good dope peddler knows how to get new clients hooked.

Since no one else has answered, I will make a guess at it even tho I don't know. Since the epi-pen is for self-administering, I would think the certification would be so you would be qualified to administer it to someone else.

Sorry, but Brushy just doesn't turn me on all that well.

I am feeding 3 hives, but haven't seen any robbing. This late in the year I wouldn't do anything to stop it anyway. I would figure the better genetics would prevail and the extra stores would help get them through the winter.

I can see a few flaws in the info, but overall I thought it was a good story. Now, Howard's workers face yet another obstacle -- more honeybees. Says Howard: "In February this year, classes held by the Wake County Beekeepers Association graduated over 50 new beekeepers. ... North Carolina now has mo...

Deodorant...



I'm waiting on Kirt's answer to that one, too.
