GrandmaB's Notes

Beginning backyard beekeeping in the Willamette Valley of Oregon, USA, using top bar hives. This is a blog of my experience starting up a top bar hive in my backyard in Independence, Oregon. Hopefully it will help others who are just beginning beekeeping in our local area with some of their basic questions about backyard beekeeping with top bar hives. Why GrandmaB...not related to bees as you might think; I've been GrandmaB since 1999 when the first of our wonderful grandchildren arrived.

Check of Medium Super

August 9, 2019 Looked into the top medium super and found no comb being drawn yet so no worries about swarming now. I believe I will remove the queen extruder when the top opening cover is installed. Not sure when that will be--need to research Michael Bush's site for more information.
