    so just a slight correction. while its written as juju, the u in kimeru language is sometimes pronounced like an o and the j like a zh. i hope others better at explaining linguistics can chip in. alternatively the kids can call their grandmother shosho or shosh which is what most kenyan city kids call their grandmothers. hope this helps. otherwise, i love your content.

    Haha miraa. Yes not many Kenyans can handle it too. It takes somewhat of an acquired taste for decades. what am interested in Miraa is the properties in it. Supposedly it gives one energy or makes you stay up-hmmm I can think of a natural energy drink or a natural pill to keep one up. Also supposedly it supresses appetite makes one not eat as much-hmm thinking of a natural diet pill. just thinking. Speak to the merus who partake in the plant and ask them why they take it and the effects.

    • @Mekenzeinkenya
      @Mekenzeinkenya  2 года назад +9

      It depends on a few things.. like how much vegetation is in the area. When you first set up the hive and the bees enter, they will need a good amount of time (could be 6 months to a year) to build up the bottom part of the hive that will keep everything stable. Then you put the top compartment on and let them fill it up.. and that’s the part you will harvest. So it does take a good amount of time in the beginning but then after that it’s quicker.
