I have anxiety and depression bad enough that I need a service dog. I am unable to preform most tasks for jobs, though I am getting better. My parents got bees and we moved a swarm to my house. I love these little guys. My italian bees are calm and happy enough to let me work with them without a suit if I'm not removing frames. Don't even mind the lid taken off. I'm hoping to do a lot more with bees and some with sheep. I figure if I can't really work a normal job, I have 55 acres to be a farmer.
I was a machinist... I love the work i did..ther is nothing like building something that is going to do work...i have been out of work with heart problems pancreas proplems and anxiety for over 4 years now and have resorted to growing produce raising goats and sheep and now beekeeping...these things are sort of prospects that keep some money coming..this makes it so i can set my schedule based on how i feel unlike the hard grind of full time and also is just what i do with my time to keep the anxiety and depression at bay
Swedish former beekeeper here. How amazing is this! And it looks just like around here in Östergötland where I live. At most I had 37 hives and that year a average of 80kg honey per hive. That was hard work! I can't imagine having a hundred 😅 Good luck to you mate! 👍🏻
For some reason bee keeping has been in my head for a couple of years now. This makes about two hours of vids by you Ive looked at this morning. Very inspiring. Also, I once spent a year in Sweden and picking blueberries is one of my fondest memories, that and the Swedish country homes!
I see that the headline of this video said you are a professional bee keeper. Do not know if you take suggestions from other bee keepers or not but here is something I do not know if you have heard about or not an a little something to help you out . Have you ever heard about running only 9 frames in your 10 frame honey supers . What you do is pull one frame out of your 10 frame supers an then space out your nine frames equally in the box . What this does is the bees will draw out these frames thicker than normal an believe it or not you WILL get MORE HONEY in these thicker nine frames than you will get out of 10 thinner frames . YOU WILL GET MORE HONEY. Then if you pull one out of nine supers that is enough to make you another super with out having to purchase the frames all you have to do is purchase just another qbox that adds to your equipment cheaper and I do not know how you uncap your frames but it makes uncapping a lot easier to do . Also if you sale your capping wax it gives more wax to do with what ever your need is . I hope you understand what I I am trying to say on this because it REALLY DOES WORK OUT GREAT. You can make more honey and money with less work an less equipment an less time . Good luck from the USA . Keep up the great work.
I'm a beekeeper from South Africa. I do the same for my broodboxes.. only 9 frames.. but for a different reason- i've noticed that the bees tend to leave the side of the frame against the box which could lead to the wax moth slipping in there and laying eggs. So I use only 9 frames to give them better space to defend their hive all around
"A box or two"? Pretty soon your soul will be consumed by the bee hivemind and you will own over a hundred boxes. All you will care about is bees, and eventually you will become the bee.
What an awesome documentary about Kalle and his bee-keeping! Your videos are always great, but this was excellent! Fascinating to watch, even though I don’t keep bees. Keep up the amazing work and thanks for the video!!
There's a blue bee in like Costa Rica or somewhere and they only eat lavender flowers so their honey is this blueish purple!!!!! They're so beautiful!!
As someone who moved from england to Sweden, this is such a fun episode for me. I really appreciate the high production value that goes into these videos. Thank you for this! This is also my first RUclips comment, haha. These videos definitely inspire me along with many other people.
starting eating honey because of these videos. having some right now. got the covid and had been a nice watch while not feeling good. hoping to get a hive set up myself when i can. thank you and keep up the great work, lovely to see you pursue your passions
As a swede, the misquotes are absolutely annoying, but they are the worst in the forest. If you are out when it’s a bit of breeze, strong enough to make its way through the trees. Then the small little buggers can’t handle it and you won’t have to deal with any mosquitos. Also just picking up some roll on misquotes repellent works well. We have very favourable laws for walking, foraging and camping in Sweden. So I recommend taking advantage of it while visiting. Depending on the time of year and where in Sweden you are I recommend foraging for: wild blueberries (blåbär in swedish, extremely easy, super delicious, they are everywhere, I believe they cover something like 70% of Swedens land mass), Lingon berries (lingon in Swedish, pretty easy but you don’t find them in the same mass as the blueberries) wild strawberries / alpine strawberries (smultron in Swedish. You find them everywhere, but just a couple of plants. And more in the edge of hedges or close by a spring. Pretty rare to find a really big patch of them in the Forrest. Super delicious) Cloudberries (hjortron in Swedish. A yellow berry relative of raspberries and blackberries. You are able to find it everywhere in Sweden, but some parts of the country has more of it and easier to find) Chanterelles (kantareller in Swedish. There are many other mushrooms to forage. But chanterelles is one of the easiest and most delicious)
I can relate to Kalle. I too had a professional career until I finally said "screw it, I'm gonna raise bees!" I'm also a busker, which he mentioned early on. Life's too short to toil away for some corporate over lord!!!
It was great to see how other people are Beekeepers, I loved where he keeps his smoker when traveling, making it safe to move when still hot. I was unaware of the Honeydew taken from aphids too, thanks for sharing Alex.
Thankyou Kalle for sharing your beekeeping life with us it is very interesting. I started beekeeping this year I am excited and nervous with all the new things I will be doing next year. Splitting my hive, adding and making new hive boxes and growing my apiary. I hope all goes well and I dont have any unforseen disasters lol but with beekeeping you just have to learn and keep on going. have a good day :)
love this channel! its amazing how many different ways there are to keep bees. one channel he takes the frames and just puts new frames in and never takes the supers, another takes a super and put a clean super back in its place. i think as long as the bees are happy you can just do it however you find it the best for you maybe
I absolutely falling in love with your Video, I am learning to become a beekeeper and your channel is one of my favorite. The mood the tone the music everything is just so relaxing. I’ve watched more than 1,000 videos of the beekeeping videos and yet yours are the best so far🎉🎉🎉 love. Fim from Thailand. 😊
Great informative video Alex as always, really enjoyed watching it. Your passion for bees and other adventures outside of fishing is refreshing 🐝👍🏼. I have a top tip for you, that will keep those pesky mosquitoes at bay. My father and I use Kanzuk barber lemon spray, the turkish barbers spray it on you, after they’ve finished cutting your hair. We found out from a friend that mosquitoes hate anything citrus. This stuff is amazing, as we used to get molested every fishing trip by the mosquitoes, now it’s great. Just a pity we had not found it years ago.
Hi Alex , I don’t bee keep but still find myself drawn to your videos ! Such Interesting things you get up too , keep up the great work , thanks for all your content
7:46, another way to make sure that the drone queen and ald the old bees that are being able to deposit drone eggs, is to shake all the bees from that hive near 15-20 meters. Young bees will be able to fly back to the original position of the hive.
I'm not a bee keeper Alex but that was realy interesting your channel just gets better and better fantastic insight into bees keep up the great work 👍 👏
@@just_alex not a problem your a must watch channel for me I'm glad you have changed from a completely fishing channel just loving the travel and all the other interesting things you get up to how's the van build coming along
Hi, new sub here and I just wanted to say, I've been binge watching your content all day! They're high quality, engaging, and very informative. Keep it up! Ps. Love from New Zealand 🇳🇿
I hunt in Sweden and we have these devices that create a special smoke that scares the mosquitoes. It’s extremely efficient and I’d go as far to say I wouldn’t be able to sit guard on my hunting position if I didn’t have this device they’re great!
@@just_alex I have really enjoyed all of your bee keeping clips - gives me confidence that this is something I can do too. Please dont stop sharing your journey with us all.
Great video Alex and very interesting, I wanted to take this chance to say I received a copy of the Simple Guide to Fishing that you wrote with Carl, I used to fish about 30 years ago and I have decided to get back into it, I have chosen carp as my main target. Your book is really helpful to me, easy to follow and well written, so a big thank you to you and Carl (not forgetting Omi's illustrtions)
Glad to follow your videos, and extra cool to see you visit my home country, Followed you and your brother before and now im hard pressed to know what videos i like more =) keep up the good work.
I hope that someday the beekeepers will earn as much as possible. Very respectful job if you understand the value of bees. Good luck to your channel and to Kalle. Glory to Ukraine.
Great informative bee vid ty Alex and kalle even watched the ad a good cause :) Here is a tip for any biting insect Avon skin soft its the BEST thing. Don't bother with anything else learned from my squaddie friends out in jungles works so good use it in my job when i need it :)
Hi Alex! Beekeeping is an absolutely fascinating subject! And to see it being done on an industrial scale is amazing, it’s certainly a full time job! It’s also because apparent to me that you have to accept quite substantial bee losses when dismantling and reassembling hives, but I assume losses are absorbed easily by bee reproduction! I wonder what happens when the worker bees from the mobile hives are out collecting and on their return to the hive, find that it’s gone! Do they join other hives in the area?
Absolute gold Alex!! So interesting and that guys way of life looked like hard work but super rewarding. Who would have though Aphid Butt Honey tasted like toffee!
as another swedish person it warms my heart to see someone with as much love and passion for bees as kalle, I might have to go buy from him this summer
I have a question to Kale: why all hives are painted green? Are you hiding them in the grass or woods this way? Yellow/White/Blue colors are distinguished by bees and used for better orientation to their home hive, especially on the trailer, isn't right? Also: what do you do with old black comb on these plastic frames? Scrap them or just dispose? Thanks for the video and good luck to the bees and their owner!
I hate using plastic frames, but a pressure wash is for sure long term way more time effective. Maybe I'll run more in the years to come. Really think walls and very deep bottom board with dual entrances ....
I have a question If I have a hive of double boxes and I want more honey production. Could I put the queen in the lower box with about 6 frames only And the upper box is only for honey separated by the queen border???
Very nice video Alex! Sweden is such a beautiful place, loved your drone work. Congrats on finding the Chanterelle 🤗 Can i ask something as i know nothing about beekeeping? Do bees ever realise they being robbed or harvested? What do they get in return?
Bees do notice the honey harvest, you are opening the hive after all. What they get in return, arguably, is being looked after. Disease treatments, etc. But a wise beekeeper will only take the surplus, so the honey the bees do not need.
Just lovely to watch the entire video. It amazed me... Alex. You should come to Indonesia to see bee keeping here. I am not a bee keeper yet; but I love to see so many bee hives has been placed in fruit farms a long country road while ago when I spent some hokiday with my family, I also remember that we have visited a honey house in central Java. Just lovely to imagine of becoming a bee keeper. I wish I also could start to do it someday. Just to let you know that, there are many traditional bee keepers too in Indonesia, we don't have four seasons like your country, but we has two seasons instead; wet season and dry season. I look forward to watch more video about your bee keeping operation, soon.
You know the guy is a pro when everything looks easy when he's doing the work!
I have anxiety and depression bad enough that I need a service dog.
I am unable to preform most tasks for jobs, though I am getting better.
My parents got bees and we moved a swarm to my house. I love these little guys. My italian bees are calm and happy enough to let me work with them without a suit if I'm not removing frames. Don't even mind the lid taken off.
I'm hoping to do a lot more with bees and some with sheep. I figure if I can't really work a normal job, I have 55 acres to be a farmer.
I'm looking into indoor oyster mushroom cultivation, but bees and sheep are also good routes.
I was a machinist...

You read the title completely incorrectly. He is not referring to himself as a professional beekeeper but rather Kalle, the man he visits.
@@bingus454 well he could relay the message. Thanks
this man was so nice showing you his beekeeping business! seems like a lot of hard work, but im still interested owning a box or two in the future :D
