How was your fall harvest

[Riverrat]

Being a rebuilding year transitioning from a sideliner to just a hobby I am rebuilding so I didn't pull any honey.  Keeps in this area had a nice harvest.  How was others harvest through out the country

[Yankee11]

Just extracted 37 gallons Saturday. That was my 3rd harvest this summer. around 115 gallons total.

[Bamabww]

Late Spring harvest off 50% from last year.  From 3 hives I pulled 8 gallons in early June.

Late Summer harvest much better. Those same 3 hives gave me 15 gallons.

Hopefully next year all 7 hives will be producers.

 Have not looked to see if I have a fall harvest yet, hope to get a little bit, so for have gotten 8 gallons this year off of 2 hives.

Just shy of a ton so far, will soon start the last pull. I know I have some more out there, maybe another 1,000 lbs if all goes well.
I've been fortunate.

I'm hoping to get a little more.  I got around 8 gallons, too.  Both of my hives swarmed early this spring, so they had some catching up to do.

That's outrageous!  I'm very happy for you.

Rod- "180 pounds from !6 hives not good in california this year due to drought.

     With all the swarming this spring I didn't plan on any honey at all, but by golly my girls pulled thru and I have 5 pints to date, quite possibly more by end of Sept.Just shy of a ton so far, will soon start the last pull.

      Good Gravy, the mind boggles!  Perry do you have to hire help at any time of the season?

[Papakeith]

No fall honey yet. 
So far, after a winter that killed all but three colonies, I did a lot of splitting this year to recover the losses.  That said,  I was happy to pull ~100 lbs off of two hives so far.   We will see in the next couple of weeks what they are going to give me (if anything) for a fall harvest.

I have to first! 

Jen, I have not had to hire anyone, and don't really see the need to. I am "only" at around 65 hives and I believe this is my comfort zone (50-65).
I don't move them for pollination anymore, so that really almost eliminated my need for help.
My extracting set-up seems to work well on my own, and as I intergrate the last few pieces it will only get easier.
Cut-outs I usually need help, and most of the time the helper gets the bees.
If I tend to a few hives each day it is not hard to keep on top of things, but inspections throws things off in the spring.
It's nice when I have company, but that's more because I like talking so much!

[JUDELT]

I have one super to harvest ,maybe more, I'll check this week when sun comes back!
