Join Dave as he dives into the essentials of feeding bees during critical periods like early spring and late fall. In this video, he covers how to make the perfect sugar water mixture for your bees, why the ratio changes between seasons (1:1 in spring vs. 2:1 in fall), and tips for keeping your colonies healthy and well-fed. Dave also explains why granulated cane or beet sugar is ideal and highlights which sugars to avoid (brown and organic sugars), as they can harm your bees.
Throughout the video, you'll get step-by-step instructions on preparing and mixing sugar water, feeding techniques, and a handy tip for storing sugar syrup long-term. Whether you're a hobbyist or small-scale beekeeper, Dave shares his go-to feeding methods, including using jar and Boardman feeders, and the pros and cons of different feeder styles.
Stay tuned as Dave demonstrates the entire process, from mixing sugar water to placing feeders on hives, ensuring your bees are well-prepared for the winter months!
