I have been an avid watcher and subscriber for a few years now. I just love the no nonsense interviews. No filler, just good questions and good people to answer them.
Keep it up Tim!!!
Great video. Thank you.
Another brilliant segment, Tim. We established a hive a few years ago and now have a few more! The benefits are amazing - pollination, honey, wax - and the maintenance can be done fairly efficiently once you develop a routine/system. I would encourage everyone to consider doing so.
Thanks Tim & Andrew, I live in the Alentejo, Portugal and I've just started bee keeping, prematurely as it happens, when a friend who was downsizing and moving further north here, donated all his old hives and equipment to me. I've had everything stacked up at the side of the house for about 6 months and a friendly swarm has moved in. All going so far and this CZcams was helpful, thank you.👍👍👍
Been interested in doing this for years. Time probably being my biggest issue and a lack of education on this is another, so this is very useful. Making Money from this is definitely not the motivation, more interested in knowing my family and friends can have access to very healthy clean pure honey and on the plus side very good for the environment/ecosystem in my area
Very concerned with Chem-trailing contaminating and destroying their environment, particularly over east from what I read, hear and seen. Unfortunately that’s out of my control though
How wonderful! I just helped a friend go fetch her first nuc & setup her first hive this morning! It was amazing & I could totally do that. Have an anniversary coming up... perhaps my husband will agree that honey makers are on the gift list! Great video! Thanks so much for such clear instructions & complete explanation of the equipment needed. Blessings from NW Florida!
had to subscribe after 3 minutes, this video is too good!
Excellent information!
lol best case scenario outputs from a nuc.
I am keen on the next steps after you get your nuc. What then? I am not necessarily interested in the honey but the benefits of growing bee colonies. so setup for honey and not honey would be awesome!
Questions noted!
Another great segment Tim.. Mate, a quick question, how do you get on using a lawn mower / ride on mower around the hive when the grass has to be mowed? Does it upset the bees?
I understand that the weather can effect their mood..
Well done again with this video 👍
I just whipper snipper and mow around my hives. If you just keep moving past them you are usually OK. However, my family still laughs about the time some chased me around the yard 😂
I’ll add it to the list for Andrew to answer…. I did notice that his grass was long!!!!
Just don't mow right in front of the hives.
why is the gurberment in NSW killing the bees
I find his figures to be highly questionable. Regularly obtaining 150kg of honey from a hive on an average year. I do not think so. On a good year 75kg would be a fantastic result. $30 a kg of honey is top price as stated but not the norm for a hobbyist. $50 a kg for wax would be close to double the going rate. His stats are certainly not the norm for a backyard beekeeper.
Don’t forget he does this for a living. He also said clearly not to expect these figures starting out.
Yeah...I was all excited until I realized 2 things: I'm allergic to bees AND I have black bears on my property....😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I will bee 🐝 a honey mommy soon ❤
