Greetings from a new beekeeper
« on: August 19, 2016, 05:47:07 pm »
Hello I am new to bee keeping and hope to get my nephews and nieces involved as well. Just received my Honey Flow system. I also placed an order for a Nuc for Spring delivery. Next I will be working with my 9 year old nephew to construct the hive, brood boxes, frames etc. I am thinking of documenting the whole thing from start to finish in a series of YouTube videos. It should be fun. Any suggestions would be welcome. Vincent

Welcome to Beemaster.
Since you are using a Flow hive, remember you need to get the brood box at full strength, at least 80% full before you add the Flow super.
