The best time to buy bees is early spring, when the temperature rises day by day and tends to be stable. When honey plants begin to bloom, buying at this time is beneficial to the reproduction of bees. You can also buy it in summer and autumn, but you should pay attention to at least one main honey source in that year.
In this way, even if we can't get a lot of commercial honey, we can at least ensure the feed reserves needed by bees for wintering. Note that it is not appropriate to buy bees after the honey sources have passed all the year round, because at this time, in addition to the purchase cost, you have to buy sugar to feed the bees.
Extended data:
The newly-opened beekeeping farm should first remove weeds, level the land and clean it up, and then show the bees. The basic requirement of bee colony layout is to facilitate the management and operation of bees and to facilitate bees to identify the location of their hives.
If the number of bees is small, it can be single-box, single-row or double-box, and the hives with a large number of bees are arranged in branches, and each row of hives is alternately displayed, with a group spacing of 1 m and a row spacing of 2-3 meters, which is wider.
Chinese bees should be dispersed, or 2-3 groups can be 1 group, and they should be placed in groups, and the distance between groups should be large. Mating groups or new groups should be scattered at the edge of the bee farm, so that the nest door faces in different directions, and the terrain and features should be properly used to facilitate bees to identify their hives.
