Beekeeping for Beginners and beekeeping basics. I am pretty proud of some of the hive footage we managed to get on film, you might want to turn on the high definition option on this story. We also talk about winter beekeeping, beekeeping protective clothing and beekeeping supplies. We dive in much deeper into beekeeping suits and show you the benefits of beekeeping. This is great knowledge to know for off grid living.
Don't forget there is also a closed caption option you can turn on if you need it to understand my southern accent :)

This is by far the most honest and better explained video.
Honey moisture is between 16.6% and 18.5%.
There's a good series called ' The wonder of bees with Martha Kearney' on BBC iPlayer, if anybody's interested. The entire series is still up. There's about 5 episodes.
Supersedure cells are for replacing a weak queen (usually found on the face of a frame), these are healthy and you just keep an eye on them, since they are replacing the queen, this will generally NOT cause a swarm. IMO, if there are multiples of Supersedure cells, it will probably cause a swarm... he's trying to explain swarm cells, (they are at the BOTTOM of most frames), and WILL cause a swarm, or many swarms.. If you don't make splits, your hive will split itself, with nearly half taking as much as they can carry, and fly away... if they do this several times, you will be left with an empty hive.
a) "Dect" phone's frequency interferes with the bee's navigation.
b) "Dect" phones have quite a large range which is increased by adding a 2nd ,3rd, 4th etc charger / range extender.
c) If you have a cordless / home / office phone there's a 90% chance it's a "Dect Phone"
d) Dect phones are not the only devices operating on or near to that spectrum.
i also wish this video wouldve addressed varroa mites, small hive beetle and CCD, probably the biggest threats to kept bees
I loved it when it cuts to the guy petting the goose. Lol Keep these coming.
Love your video! I'm about to do a series of videos from first opening the goody box of supplies to assembling the boxes through the first year ..come watch me grow and give me some tips!
Here I am sitting in Winchester, NH soaking up all the information and knowledge I can get my eyes on and falling in love with bees and this amazing art
If you made it to buying or trapping your bees Done made the big decision! Bees is a lot of hard hot work. Then the next thing is> Know your bees, stains, actions ect. what and how they do things. Then next is make systems to work em, Honey, wax and things> I Do things in STATIONS Then your off into the world of honey bees REMEMBER THIS > NO HONEY BEES> THERE IS NO WORLD TO LIVE IN
plant flowers to assist the bees in the low flowers periods, esp sunflowers
Good advice.
Laurel etc large fast growing maturing flooring trees produce far better and more honey each than an acre of wildflowers, so bordering with trees, even an acre only of land, can greatly increase yields.
Thank you so much for this video. I'm getting back into beekeeping this near April, So excited. Natural Beekeeping Works!!!!!
Glad a lot of bee keepers are VERY close to us one of my friends is one too
Wow that’s cool! My uncle used to be a beekeeper never knew how much work he did with it 😎
Today I looked through some of my old documents from the 1800s and came across mention of the Foul Brood in bee colonies and that salicylic acid was an antiseptic used to help heal the colony. In research for hunting down ghost towns and farms, one should look for fruit orchards and willow trees. Have you heard of any research into the possibility of using willow trees as a source of food for bees to keep them healthy due to salicylic acid in the bark that may also be in the tree pollen?
Willows are excellent source for bees as far as any antiseptic value for AFB there is none.
I think I'm having to give this beekeeping job a try!
Start small and build slowly - Fantastic advice.
great teaching video. Hope you have less harsh winters up there. CT has been getting milder and milder winters.
Thank you for a great Video Doc.
As someone looking into learn how to bee keep I simply LOVED IT. Thank you!!!
Next year is my 3rd year and going good i got 200 lbs this year off 1 hive so its winter now here and i look forward to next year
great work, thanks!
I am just getting into starting my hobby in bee keeping
Brilliant advice
Thanks for explaining things
Nice job doc!
Thanks for the info! I'm going to be looking into a colony for this spring
THANK YOU VERY MUCH...GREAT INFOS.....
more videos like this please!
Something to think about!
Fantastic video, thank you, Mark, Australia
Thanks for the kind words.
Well done!
Very informational
this is highly resourceful. thanks for documenting this
Very nice video. That's definitely something on our list of things to do.
Slowvannah Farms Thanks for checking it out and sharing it.
wonderful video thank you.
Thanks for the nice words
thank you--good video.
Good stuff thanks
Excellent, thorough, knowledgable! Great video. That's a like & subscribe from me.
This is an absolutely fascinating hobby. Great video and highly informative.
Good info!
I thank you for your video and I'm very seriously thinking about getting into this I have a great mentor that lives close and a very good spot for them and also am somewhat of a wood worker so this is right up my alley. There are to many good qualities about bees not to..When the bees are gone... people will be gone also!!
Be careful & great job
A friend of mine that I used to work with sold a creamed honey from his hives flavored with cinnamon. Absolutely the best tasting honey I've ever eaten.
Fantastic stuff! I'm currently a city boy (Vancouver, BC) in his early 20's, but I've always wanted to do something like this long-term. Once I'm more financially stable, I want to look into finding a mentor for this line of work. My dad was a farmer (though not a beekeeper), so I already have a taste for this kind of lifestyle, and it suits me very well.
Plus, bees are just awesome!
+StrunDoNhor agreed, bees are just cool.
i just picked upt 2 warre hives I ordered in London ontario, I live in sarnia........the warre hives don't pre built combs, pretty sure the bees can build their own comb walls
this was extremely informative, thank you!!
Thanks so much for watching, feel free to share.
Thanks for the great video Tarrin! I'll send you my first batch of honey. (In 2 years)
Awesome, good luck with your bees, I hope it helped. So cool you are starting a hive.
thank you!! this video was really helpful!
thank you for informations
Well done video! Simple and easy to understand. Thank you for sharing.
I'd love to learn more about slum gum, how to make it.
Thank you. I am looking to buy my own land for me and my family and beekeeping is something that is at the top of my list of things to do. This video has been very helpful and I look forward to learning more in the future.
fantastic video, very informative. thanks.
Great video! I've watched many and this is very informative! Thank you!
Interesting!!
great job, Dr. Lupo! :)
Tnx!

Very informative, thank you very much. A lot of useful information !
living my dream! European bees to make mead! Viking life
Live your own dream
Extremely helpful and a good watch!
Love this!! Jumped right in with a swarm:)
Do different kinds of flowers make different tasting honey?
the goose is hilarious
Nice to see beekeepers from my neck of the woods. Thanks for the video.
when do they lay eggs and do they give so much honey is it so the bee can eat.
how far do you need to keep the hive from houses/homes?
Thank you for sharing and let's together keep it up!!!
this makes me happy :)
When you have one hive you don't need to buy a queen except for genetics. You can place a frame with eggs at different stages into a starter hive. The workers will decide which eggs to turn into a queen cell. Not sure why people think that you won't get honey the first year. I have always been able to pull honey from a hive the first year with no issues.
Requeening a captured swarm. I would've never thought of that, makes SUCH PERFECT SENSE! Did you and a mentor figure this out together?
+101Cecilia No way they typically swarm in their second yr and queens have been known to be viable 5+ yrs , you especially dont want to re-queen if you know they came from true feral bees.( unless they give you reason to like agression) I'll give you an example, a swarm issued from my moms tree and I wasn't in town so another local beek got it. He immediately re-queened and lost them a yr later to mites. 3 yrs later the original hive is still alive without treatments. If this guys colony died from an old queen it's because they superceded her and something happened or she didn't return. Whenever supercedure happens I always split the hive and place cells in each half to increase my chances of getting a new mated queen to return. If one fails, re-combine. The only reason you would ever need to re-queen is to get rid of unwanted traits, like agression, or poor laying patterns, etc. Don't just do it to do it, you could be pinching the best queen you ever had.
That's the first thing I thought .
@@uncleharley1 exactly!
Close to trying beekeeping and / or chickens, but maybe will keep watching videos for a while.....Good job with this very interesting and informative video!
There hasn't been a heating solution made for the winter season yet? I'm sure the equipment would be extremely expensive if so..
Hi. Hope you may be able to help on this. New nuc, this morning some flying into hive others flying under hive hanging out on bottom board. Normal? Video included from this morning. Thanks. Posted a video on my page.
Great!
I just got a Langstrof hive box that has two brood boxes and one honey super. I notice the inner top cover does not have a notch in the side. Should there be one? Worried about the ventilation and moisture control. Also the bottom board is solid. Should I swap it out for one with a screen for varroa mite control?
Can I start keeping bees with super or does one need to start with single chamber?
that was very used full info thanks .from bc vancouver i am try to be come bee keeper..
i notice the water is aslo very important for beekeeping
So enjoyed that very very informative. We are going to start in South Africa!, such an important thing to do
Thank you for video! Best spring greetings from Ukrainian beekeepers to beekeepers in Canada!
good info! excellent video! your goose is very tame!
Thank you for interesting Video! Good luck in insects collecting! Best greetings from beekeepers!!!!
Thanks for checking out the video and leaving the nice note.
+Dr. Tarrin P Lupo Always wanted to do this. I've contacted the bee keeper from NH via Facebook, referencing you and inquiring on prices of things they offer. ☺🐝
im in my 3 rd year bee keeping, im working to get larger but taking it slow, i get a new nuke every year and always get extra honey from them , usually 10 medium frames full at a minimum. It must be a location thing, i"ve heard this information on numerous utube sites.
Thanks for this!
Thank you I am writing a fictional romance book with beekeepers this helped a lot. Also, are there any books you would recommend?
ADHD-BORDERLINE QUEEN look at 628 dirtrooster you will learn a lot more
the drones also help regulate the hive temperature and humidity by detecting warm or wet areas and flapping their wings to form a air current. So except for doing their thing with the queen they also help alot untill they die. :)
I didn't know that. But what about in the winter I thought they kicked out all the drones to help save on food
Yeah its
I impressed from james channel !you are awesome !!!👍👍👍i will supporting you now on!i will be fan of your channel
super sir g
The music at about 10:00 just makes me think Sjin's feed the world series.
Manchestersgirl Omg I used to love that series
lol
For me I heard it during some of the minigames in Suikoden for the Playstation 1.
Manchestersgirl 6:26 is what your looking for
Nice one, Subscribed. Please keep'em comin...
Except swarms are only old queens once she gets sick old, or just pushed out by one of her daughters.. some hives have the healthiest queens for years and produce exceptionally vibrant queens swarming/kicked out. It's a scam perpetuated to sell queens, and the real problem is not having proper conditions for your wild caught bees, new queens released in bad conditions may leave some to work on hive, but leave with others again, as they do and I've seen many times. Otherwise awesome video and thanks for sharing, I miss my setup that was taken.
would it be a good idea to move the hive into a shelter (with an opening, im thinking like a chicken coop..bee coop lol) during really harsh winter conditions?
I'll study English with your help. I'm beekeeper and understand what you say. The most important thing, that you say right. I didn't understand what you meen whan you say "meed".
Mead is just an alcoholic drink that he makes on his farm.
ok thinking about my first hive next year what's the first thing to do to get started? I think I found my location not far from a woodsy area a little semi-shade in the heat of the day
+Dan Rodecap (smallenginecommander) This link should help you decide what to do first. tinyurl.com/qee7ro9
