Move top bees in super into bottom box. Evaluate for strength.\nHow to do a sugar and alcohol roll for Varroa count and a sticky board count.\nHow to medicate hive (PULL ALL HONEY OFF FOR EXTRACTING BEFORE MEDICATING).\nDiscuss foundation vs. comb frames and feeding to draw out frames.\nShow Feeders and pollen patties.\nHow to feed a hive with sugar water and pollen patty.\n\n\n\nSpring feeding ratio: To stimulate colony growth and comb production. Use 1 part sugar to 2 parts hot water to dissolve sugar (approximately 1.5 pounds of sugar per gallon of water. ~3¾ cups sugar).\nSummer feeding if needed ratio: Use 1 part sugar to 1 part hot water  approximately 3 pounds of sugar to 1 gallon of hot water).\nFall feeding for winter storage ratio: Use 2 parts sugar to 1 part hot water  (approximately 5 pounds of sugar to 1 gallon of water). When feeding sugar water you CANNOT pull frames of honey from those boxes (Honey Bee Hobbyist by Gary Norman).\n\n\n\n\nView the honey extraction area.\nPlant walk for Pollinator friendly plants.\nQuestion and answers.\n\n \n
