This helped me feel confident about my first harvest, thanks! I was really worried about getting stung but the smoke tip helped a lot.
Great tips on using the smoker. My bees were much calmer this time compared to my last inspection. Do you recommend pine needles for fuel?
Is it necessary to filter the honey immediately or can I let it sit for a day?
