Thank you for these informative monthly webinars.
Question for future issues of your online and printed publications:
Many of the beekeepers that I work with in Central TX have Top Bar hives, including myself. Would it be possible to include a segment or mention strategies for Top Bar beekeepers during each of your monthly updates?
Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you for your videos, very informative.
A question, when feeding pollen pattie’s, I see you feeding them a whole slab and other times you feed two good sized pieces. How do we know how much should we feed a hive? I have been feeding very small pieces per hive. Is that too little?

I live right down the road and up until about a week ago we had tons and tons of wild sunflowers where I think they were getting a lot of their pollen from. I’m not seeing any sunflowers with pollen on them anymore though. Do you see a fall nectar flow after right now into about mid October when it cools off pretty good?

lol New Brunswick is 2 hours away from my area we have the same winters it’s cool you have been in around my area now you can understand why I can’t split in fall😅

[aaronparis]

You guys can do fall splits up here in Canada we can’t do that

We have so much pollen flow in Nova Scotia Canada we don’t need pollen
