Very Hot Weather!

It has been really hot and humid for the past three days. The bees are bearding so I pushed the supers back about an inch to help in ventilation. At this time, we have two supers on. The lower super is the one we extracted four frames from and the upper super has ten frames full of honey but the bees don't seem to want to cap it yet. Graham says that's because the cells aren't full enough. Be patient.

There's a slight possibility that within two or three days, we may have a lot of honey to process! That would be really cool! Graham said that sourwood should be out within the next two weeks.
