I don’t bee keep, nor have the time, energy or space to, but I love bees and honeycomb is my favourite snack! This is shady from this company i thought would be great.

Flow hive representatives are very unprofessional, speaking from experience. When they need to answer a concern they usually forward your questions to a freelance expert. So the replies you get can vary drastically. Me and my friend bought 2 of their hives, have them in the same spot next to each other. We had a problem where our bees would use the flow hive as nest and pollen storage. We sent flow hive two separate messages on what to do and got two different answers. 😂

For $1200 versus the cost of the material, that thing should definitely come with a pre-coat. And already full of bees and ready to make the first harvest yesterday. I hope it wasn’t already assembled and you just used old worn out driver bits on those screws. Not everyone uses drills so constantly that it’s second nature, so I get it. It’s one thing to (no pun intended) screw yourself out of being able to remove them, but if that was assembled already, I would be livid. Hope everything works out well with it, though. It’s all really quite interesting. My grandpa maintained an apiary for many years until about 2001 or so, but I never bothered to learn anything about it. Consider me subscribed. Keep on keepin on, brother.

Oh this sounds soo much like a multilevel marketing scheme. At least the attitude from the weird amount of hostile first part comments are soo similar to mlm victims trying to make their money worth it or seem like it was a smart decision. Too similar to mlm attitudes Too similar to tech bro attitudes. Disgusting and shady all around!

They kind of sound like aggressive bullies, and that's a drag. Thank you for putting the bees first ❤🙏🏻

Just to keep a perspective, how expensive would the Tradition stuff be that you now „replaced“ with a FlowHive?

I believe in one of his shorts he said about half the cost and that would include the honey extractor.

so much more expensive to get all the other bits and bobs needed to extract, and this way, the quality of the honey is much better.

All you need ho do is apply a little of their own wax into the glow frames, and they will get to recycle it. Theres no need to go through all that painting on of wax. Maybe you put the super on too soon, before the colony had grown enough to warrent the super. If uou watch their videos you would have seem that same issue delt with, with a small piece of their own wax mashed into the outer frames.

@@hevchip741 No, both of my deep boxes were full, and the colony was more than ready for a super. The main problem wasn’t really with the wax. I’ve shown every step I went through to get the Flow Hive to work. Initially, Flow Hive said it wasn’t necessary to add wax. So, I figured instead of wasting wax, I’d see if my bees would accept the frames on their own first. When they didn’t, I added wax to help encourage them. They also mentioned it could take months for the bees to start using the Flow frames. Unfortunately, due to my climate and location, I can't afford to wait months for them to accept the frames. Luckily, adding the extra wax worked. The real issue again, here wasn’t about whether or not to add wax. It was the unsolicited and potentially harmful advice I received from Flow Hive that could have harmed my colony.

@@bowserbee thats a shame, I have found them to be very helpful, with giving more than one option to issues, maybe it depends on the individual that talks to us. Im glad your hive works well now

Part of me really wants to get a urban bee box going on our balcony, but my neighbors are allergic
