Delay…Delay…Delay.
Well, really only 2 delays to this point, but the winter storm in the middle of April this year has created quite a substandard climate for getting bees rolling this spring. So now with this latest delay we are looking at getting bees sometime on Wednesday the 18th of April. Better then than now when it is freezing outside. The bees will appreciate the delay I am sure.
The moisture will certainly help the bee yard and all forage sources. I don’t think there was much bud damage but time will tell. Hopefully this means a long Indian Summer. Remember those?
