Weโ€™re back with The Bee Buzz! In this episode, I recap a wild cross-country trip that ended in a busted transmission, a used car purchase, and the world's best Applebeeโ€™s salmon. Then we jump into your beekeeping questions.

Whatโ€™s Inside This Episode:

  • Weekly inspections vs bi-weekly: what you risk by skipping
  • Reversing boxes vs adding space โ€” what actually matters
  • When and how to rotate or replace frames
  • Signs your bees are running out of room
  • Queen cells: when to panic, when to leave them alone
  • How to time spring feeding, splits, and adding supers
  • Swarm traps, package installs, brood patterns, and more

Why Listen to This Episode:

This Bee Buzz is packed with practical advice for spring management, swarm prevention, and making better colony decisions โ€” especially if you're still figuring out when to step in and when to let bees do their thing. Whether you're managing two hives or twenty, thereโ€™s something in here for you.
