Congratulations, a great 4th year start! The cough syrup taste come from Pin Cherry "Prunus pensylvanica" trees. The Smith Brothers used it in their cherry cough syrup. Get yourselves some bee escapes. Really simplifies the super removals. The Mann Lake HD-105 is nice because you can thumb tack it on your existing inner covers. A Refractometer is darn useful to figure out you honey moisture. The cells do not have to be capped. Your medium wonkey comb frames? Scrap them down and and rewax. Finally, look to commercial beekeepers for information. Bob Binnie is one of the best hands down. Ian Steppler a northern beekeeper and Kamon Reynolds. Hope these tips help. Enjoy the adventure!
Thanks so much, those were all such great recommendations. We've used our mentors refractometer in the past and it was so helpful to know the real numbers. Really appreciate the support!
Great job 👍 hi from southern New Zealand 👋 great results getting honey for yourselves and to sell, fantastic 😃 something I noticed you said, the honey wasn't ready unless it's capped, that's a good general rule of thumb but like a lot of things in beekeeping not always true😅, sometimes the bee's just won't cap some honey, but it doesn't mean it's unextractable. The simple way to be certain is If you have a refractometer you can test the moisture content, they're about $20 USD to buy, and it's a great tool. I've seen uncapped honey at 16% and capped honey at 25%😂 North American beekeeping TH-camrs Bob binnie and kamon Reynolds have great TH-cam tutorials about using refractometers if you'd like to learn more. Great video and congratulations👋
Thanks for the tip! I’ve used one in the past, last year our moisture content was 16%. I’ve also heard you can tilt the frame on its side and give it a little shake to see if the honey comes out. This year was easy though, because all the frames we took where like 95% capped😊🤙🏽
@@hancockhaleI love honey . These are genuine questions. How much honey do the bees require for themselves? How much honey do u leave for the bees ? I learnt from a short of urs that a bee hive takes 50 days max to fill the hive , can the size of a hive be increased ?

Amazing! thanks for sharing your experience. Do you have any problem with hornets? here in France we have Vespa Velutina from Asia, it causes a lot of trouble.
Glad I could share! No hornet issues here fortunately! We will be in France in the Brittany region come January and February and hope to see some hives while we are there😊
@@hancockhaleenvy you Brittany and Normandy. My flight just got in an hour ago but we didn't go north. Next time! Im from Canada and we are not permitted to bring back butter from B&N. Dang. It would be great with your honey.

My sister uses honey to heal open wounds if her horses get injured.
Did anyone else click on this video thinking the thumbnail was of a jar of piss?
Now that’d be an interesting story to tell!
