Like this I do urban bee farming . Site and even ultra site specifically huge different.

lots of great tips here, thanks!

Where do you get your labels for the 2x4 containers?

Thanks bor❤❤

What is the temp for decrystalization?

I like you openness to new ideas.. super interesting! I am in NS and there are no good UTubers that are Canadian ( there are Canadian utubers ) I totally enjoy the ones from southern US abs European utubers

Absolutely awesome result. We love good tryers.

Where did u get your bee suit? Also, r your gloves sting proof?... if so where did u get them? thx

When u offset the honey supers #1 doesnt that let rain in? ... and... #2 doesnt that promote robbing? thx i am a novice trying to learn.

Hey Gus, I came back to this video looking for you, I realized i had not seen a video from you in a long time. I really enjoyed all your videos and i hope you are doing well.

Do you graft all your own queens? What certification do you recommend?

Thanks for sharing Gus

Was wondering if you ever used the cage to isolate queen cells that are caped so as to recover more than one immerging queen to use in another hive which yo split…???

this tank still holding up well for you?

Really have learned a lot from you wondering if you were going to put up more videos

good video, FYI, Michael Bush is a big time proponent of the upper entrance. Actually for more reasons that honey, in his book is the Practical Beekeeper, one of his big advantages of the upper entrance is the lack of skunk pressure as I remember it, and as a fellow husker I tend to agree that there is a lot of skunks in the midwest. I tried upper entrances early on a few years ago and the bees did not seem to use it much, now with a few more years of experience maybe I should give it a try again and see if they would take to it better.

I laughed with you about the intro. Good info. I have not seen this info anywhere else .

The thing i hate about these Refractometers is you have to recalculate it with extra virgin olive oil every time room temp changes 5°, but im glad i read that in instructions cause its usually. 5 to 1 # out of calibration everytime i get ready to check. Hope to get one of those electronic ones like Kaymon one day, but they are pricy

Thanks for the great video!!

"Click bait"....I'd never thought thats what that was, I read title a yr ago and lost confidence in you cause I trust Bob 100%. And I quit watching your videos. But I decided to hear you out to see how anyone could disagree with Bob. Never seen a lie that made me wanna watch. Thanks for videos

Could you measure distance between points on 8 frame spacer? I'm gonna build some, thanks gus

True, mold doesn't kill bees farmers do with pesticides, superdfm from "strong microbials "will take care of that . Also varoa mites kill colonies, oxalic acid vapor with Robs instantvap will take care of that. Bees just coat over mold, not an issue. Thanks Gus for educational videos

Wow ! Thats a great idea.

You running 8 frames? You shallow frames, are they 6 5/8"?

During the nectar flow, how many boxes do you put on the strong hive and how many days do you come back and check?

Thanks for the info. Looking forward to more vids

On a good hive how many supers will they fill?

Are most of your yards shaded or under a tree?

Gus, I hope that you'll start posting more videos in 2024. One of the best there is regarding straightforward and valuable information.

Show us your finished product?

This just popped up in my feed, hope that you are well!

I'm going to make one of these today and possibly transfer a queen over to a split that looks queenless. We'll see! I unfortunately don't have any brood in the split, just nectar in all cells which is why I'm thinking the split never had a queen make it. You say wait 5 days correct? I'll probably need to put some attendants in there with her from the original hive.

I am glad you clarified that this was a mating nuc. Most important is to have enough nurse bees to care for and feed royal jelly from day 1 of hatching all the way thru mating and into the period of 3 weeks, time-tested, to truly see that she is a good proven established laying queen. A must IMO for a successful virgin queen cell just introduced inside your nuc. Thanks 🐝

I can’t find any videos on making an eight frame spacer. Does anyone have a link to one?

Good honest talking

Great chat Gus , much appreciated

Appreciate the knowledge you're sharing. Congratulations!

I think you said three days I don’t think you mean three days. If you kill the queen that is lying in three days, the eggs are hatched and they are perfect age to make queen cells.

It's called brain fart😂

Why not make a metal surenge u suck up the wax push it out in a controlled manner like getting a shot

I used to do that way too heck with that way i now boil my framesu can use a turkey fryer fill with water. Till boiling di ur frames comes out clean😊

Gus, watching this again getting ready for spring. I look forward to when you have time to do these again! Thankful for all of the knowledge in these videos. Be blessed!

Love that you share your experience it helps a ton

Why do you not just use narrow starter strips rather than the deeper surplus foundation? I know it takes longer and is more work for the bees but it seems the quality of the final product would be much better.

I still find myself re-watching your videos as I progress in my beekeeping experience. Such great timeless information. I hope you are doing well. I hope to see you at a local meeting soon. Thanks Gus.

Thanks Gus ! I am thinking about giving it a try this year !

Does this ever cause robbing? I'm near augusta ga and very much enjoy your videos

Really miss your videos gus !

How do you dry the pollen & for how long?

Metal frame spacers are way better than plastic. 8 frames are better than 9 or 10 as fars as honey per box . The one drawback is you have to be more gentle with handling 8s or they will tear themselves apart if handled roughly . Self spacers are better in brood boxes and frame spacers in honey supers speed up supering during the honey flow because you dont have to stop to evenly space the frames .
