1:1 or 2:1 When and Why to Feed Which Syrup

Discussion on which mixtures of sugar syrup to use during various times of the year. This is not always a simple answer of 1:1 in the Spring and 2:1 in the Fall. It really depends on what we are trying to achieve.

I'm sorry, did you say bees will turn 1.5 gallons of syrup into 20 pounds of honey?????

[@JR-kk6ce]

I have 5 hives. I go through 25 pounds of sugar every 10 days using a 1:1 ratio. Sugar is getting more and more expensive. The more syrup, the more bees, the more bees, the more syrup you gotta make. It is the definition of insanity.

[@DysonApiaries]

That’s funny right there. You can thicken the mix up, and they have a tendency to store and restrict the brood nest instead of making more bees.
