Tim, seems to be a common problem this year for sure, a lot of my hives are plugging to. Nectar flow is very heavy this year. Where are you at in OH? I am just south of you.
I have seen all your videos, the video quality is very good, but no video SEO is done, it means that in terms of search engine optimization, your videos are not first in the search and your videos are not ranked and the channel is not big. In this case, I am a digital marketer. Thank you for helping me grow your channel
When was this footage taken Tim, just want to get time frame on what your seeing and when. I too am in Ohio. I’m north east of you. Fairfield county for me.
What does brood area look like in your horizontal hive? Most put green drone comb in brood area. I got top bar hives now because I can't lift. Don't worry, we all have senior moments.
The queen had very little area for brood - due to so much honey. Thus the reason I was moving frames out. Not laying as many drones as earlier this Spring.
@swohiobees so the frames were from broid area? My bees use 18 frames for brood area and then the rest honey. Kamon reynolds uses only 10 frames for brood and the rest of long Lang for honey but he's more south with short winter. How many frames if brood did you have.
@@brendawydeven2934 - Unfortunately, bees don't consult with me or read any manuals. When the flow is strong, they store it in any & all cells. There is no way to prevent this. All we can do is move or remove those honey bound frames and give them empty comb. Sometimes this helps, but when the flow is strong, it can be a loosing battle.
@swohiobees Right, and I get that. Was just wondering if that was in the brood area. Or did you take them because there was honey going into brood area . I'm a little confused because you don't show both sides of hive. So you took it out of brood area. If that wasn't the side brood isn't usually made why would they be honey bound.
Senior moment!!!! LOL!!
Happens to me too often too!!!
I see a large amount of bees in that hive.😁
