My two cents, for what it's worth (probably not the two-cents I'm trying to offer):
1) If it weren't for bad advice, how would we learn or know what "good" advice is?
2) I've most definitely declared this to bee the bee forum for me, until I get kicked out... Then I'll just peer in the windows
. But this particular forum was just formed in December 2013. We haven't even been through an entire bee season... How would you know you haven't received any bad advice here yet?
With as much information as I'm soaking in here, I, personally, recommend taking it all in with a grain of salt... Err on the side of caution... But, then again, I feel I'm pretty good at weeding through the trash (which I really haven't found here).
My thoughts are a little scattered... But my point is, as many people have said here,
learn what works for YOU and YOUR bees.Sorry, I have a tendency to play "Devil's Advocate">.
