Probably should have stated the Zero slot is for those starting with TBHs this year.
Last night was the end of a a 6hour/3 night Beginner's program that our Extension Service puts on. I took the whole family to it - wife, 10 yo twins, and my mom. Mom has fields of henbit and dead nettle, then beans, plus lots of poplar and two old lindens. She's going to let me set a couple of hives up her way.
The agent had a local beek lined up to speak, but he couldn't make it so he sent a recorded PP program that he threw together. It was really interesting to hear how strongly he advised against TBH's, especially to an unknown group of listeners.
