    No honey to harvest this season..... i sit and watch Space-X flying grain silos in south Texas while my bees and myself do the basic survival thing this year. I have Supers Everywhere, and more frames taking up space than I can get away with when women folk are about.

    The subject I want to address has nothing to do with this video
    In my area (Danube Delta ,Romania , Europe) are a lot of bee eaters . They come here all the from Africa and feast on the insects they find here during the summer and autumn . From May until late September they make me cringe when I hear their very beautiful sounds and see their amazing colours . Luckily enough they are endangered species otherwise I would destroy all their nests. One bee eater can eat as much as over 100 bees a day and there are scores of them. One might think that bees are doomed but that's not the case. Sometimes the bees form a miniswarm and literally chase them away and the birds fly away making all kind of disperate sounds or the bees wouldn't come out the hive when the birds are around. The nectar flow is done anyway so the bees wait until the sun is almost gone and they go foraging in thousands especially for pollen . It's quite a show.
    I wonder what intelligence is hidden behind bees because they build amazing structures and take radical decisions. In my country we say that horses don't speak in order not to embarrass the humans .
    So even they are so small and simple there is something hidden behind bees My guess

  • @mikeries8549
    @mikeries8549 4 роки тому +1

    The granulation is caused by the motion of honey moving.
    When a 'fluid' is moving the physics change..it's very complicated engineering stuff but I think thats why it granulated in your machine. Nothing you can do except maybe go very slow. Like that'll happen.
    Cool machine.

      @ke6gwf 4 роки тому +2

      @@mikeries8549 you make it sound so complicated, and that you are smarter than the rest of us, so you can't even begin to explain why it happens (which probably means that you don't know enough about it to actually explain it lol), but what Carrie is saying is that Canola honey is already crystallizing when they are pulling it off the hives.
      That's why they have to pull it as soon as the bees fill a box and then extract it immediately, because if they let it sit any longer, it will be crystallized before they can extract it.
      Other types of honey can be left to sit until later and then extract it all at once at the end of the season, but canola would be solid by then.
      So the much simpler explanation is that the already granulating honey in the comb tends to clump in the extractor because it doesn't flow out, and probably collects some other honey that's almost ready to crystallize and just needs the seed crystal.

    • @timothyhollmann8571
      @timothyhollmann8571 4 роки тому +2

      It is actually the sugar makeup of the honey canola and sunflower have a higher concentration of dextrose thats what sugars, clover honey has less dextrose and will granulate eventually but much slower

    Could you give smelter honey back to the bees instead of syrup?

    • @stanleyguedes2336
      @stanleyguedes2336 4 роки тому +4

      No, it's very toxic to bees. Cooking honey produces a compound called Hydroxymethylfurfural (I had to google the spelling, look it up). Don't feed bees cooked honey or burned syrup.

      @@verlicht It's not bad for humans, so you can by all means cook with it. Lots of people use it for barbecue sauce. Also, as far as I know, it takes boiling syrup for any hydroxy to be produced, so no worries there.
