That's right, Peter. We're fascinated every time we visit a larger operation. Beekeeping has so many variances, it's hard to say who is 100% right in their technique. I guess a healthy hive shows us all we need to know. :-)
Where's the real pollen? Call it what you will but I doubt it is as you say. That' sure looks like a few boxes of substitute on that pick up bed. Most often not a drop of real flower to be found in the formulation. . No pollen is there? . Generally its made with about 50 % sugar and a compilation of proteins such as yeast, peas, or Soy beans, Rarely does it contain real pollen. If and when it does its most often cheap pollen from China. The bees can smell the lipids which makes them gobble it all up faster but depending on the source and ingredients using it doesn't always correlate to massive brood rearing as people are led to believe.
What does Justin do with the extra honey in the box come spring? He said he’s not to fond of golden rod honey so I’m sure he doesn’t extract it. Will he take it off and save it and then feed it back during a dearth? I was curious cause I’m sure he doesn’t want a full box of honey on his hive come the spring nectar flow.
Interesting you use the word "professional" beekeeper. I sort of get it, yet in my eyes, there are only Hobbiest or backyard beekeepers, and Commercial Beekeepers. But I really enjoyed the video and the back and forth question.--very well done. Where is Justin located?
Justin's profession is beekeeping. It's his full-time job, and he's been recognized as one of the most knowledgeable keepers in the region. He's located in The Arkansas River Valley near Russellville.
Think of how much would have been learned if what the beekeeper just said wasn't Repeated back to him every time a question was asked....usually adult's are watching and don't need a kindergarten class.
And sometimes beginners are watching and need to hear the information a second time to help them retain it. We appreciate you watching, but if you're already past this skill level, why must you leave a rude comment? Not everyone is on your level, Wayne.

Fun fact. This guys operation was the first time Farm Credit had ever financed a bee operation.
The bees you sold us that came from Justin have really worked out great for us
Nice to see this operation thank y'all for posting. Justin is where I hope to be one day nice to see it working for him.
And to think, this is only a _part_ of his operation. It's a lot of work, but Justin says it's very rewarding. Good luck with your bees, Michael!
Great video with Justin. I always enjoy spending time with him every year looking at his colonies.
Thanks Danny! Yeah, Justin is a great guy to hang around. We learned a lot with him today!
This beekeeper is so kind it seems.
Justin is one of the kindest men we've ever met. He genuinely cares about his bees and the people in his life. Great guy!
Great video. Interesting to see how the commercial guys do things differently

Love what you are doing we hope to have our own bees next month or so
I hope you enjoy them as much as we do ours.

Thanks for watching!
Don't tell my Carnies that...they brood their butt off on sub and not until then if we don't get a fall flow
TIM from Canada weather check 18 Fahrenheit…..is - 7.8 that is the spring day in Canada
I enjoy a Honey Stick or two every new episode.....and well as you know I bought a couple bucks worth ...you catching my drift. HAHA
Love to hear that, Aaron. What's your favorite flavor? Have you tried Root Beer?
@@CentralBeekeepersSupply I think I like the simple clover honey the best! I have tried the Root Beer and it is great.
What does Justin do with the extra honey in the box come spring? He said he’s not to fond of golden rod honey so I’m sure he doesn’t extract it. Will he take it off and save it and then feed it back during a dearth? I was curious cause I’m sure he doesn’t want a full box of honey on his hive come the spring nectar flow.
If u don't find a queen in March what would u do
The majority of the honey that's there now will be eaten and replaced with brood come spring. It's unlikely he has any extra.
Do you ever plant flowering plants like clover or sunflowers or anything like that for the bees to feed on???
Yes, I have planted both before.

Wayne, you're rude.
I appreciate the commentary. It helps me learn more. Keep it up!
