    Mug up from Holderness NH! 24 F at 9:30 am, 19 F above historic average. We normally would bottom out in the singles and tops in the low 20's. Thanks for posting. Have a great day!

      Yeah - as Sam Comfort calls it - "Global Weirding."

      @@sbgmimedia we talked about this crap back in high school in the 70's, we haven't listened. I'll stop before I get started. Thanks for replying to my comment. I like to compare weather across the country.

    Wow...She came out firing... I'd like to see a response to her from Dr. Jamie Ellis and Dr. Meghan Milbrath.

      Yeah she sure did. The notion of not treating ultimately resulting in death of your colony is what's being dealt with - and these statements by both Jamie and Meghan aren't empirically true. That is at the crux of the discussion not using chemicals and treatments does not ALWAYS kill your colony it's more complex. That is why we are having these discussions. Imagine, if there was no Varroa, what would we talk about?

      True. I just don't entirely believe in letting the colony die from being overwhelmed by mites and disease. Re-queening and changing the genetics would be more ideal in my mind. Cory's Zoom last night was good stuff.

      I think Nahalie, though not an advocate of chemical treatments, understands that. Like many others and the SBGMI, skipping the steps just to get to the top of the Pyramid is the part we are most concerned with! Glad you came. The video has been posted to the channel.
