I couldn't have done it without all the help from this forum. So thanks to everyone.

OMG! I can only imagine that day for me. I Am Soo Envious!
Great Goin' Yankee! I can smell that honey from here in California :D
-
Yes, that's dandy for sure! Yum, yum. I extracted 11 frames today for my step-dad to see what it's like to take honey from the hives to the jar. Will have a thread in a few minutes..
-
That's great! I hope we all harvest mass quantities of honey this year!
-
Very well done Yankee....Tom
-
very nice!
I checked in on my girls yesterday. two supers "mostly" capped. not quite ready yet.
-
Most all of it was capped but it seemed a little thin to me. But we were in a closed room and it was around 95 degrees. I hope that is why. I will check with my refractometer and see. I figured if it was capped it was good to go.
We have had so much rain this year I am surprised they were able to cap any of it.
-
very nice, I've been busy making bees instead of honey, but that's done for this year and now the season can start in earnest. I'm at least a month away from having full supers.
-
That's great! How many hives do you have?
I don't think we are going to make much this year, but I am still hopeful. We got another small rain today. Maybe that will keep a little flow going. :)
