The takeaway here is to know what is happening in your hives. Monitoring your bees on a weekly/biweekly basis from observing what is going in to the hive to what is happening in the brood nest is a continual task. In the spring you watch the pollen coming in. The summer it has eased up but may not stop all together. By fall they should have all they need. It depends also on your operation. If you are a commercial beekeeper or hobbyist.
