Wonderful
warm day. Temperature is about + 20C. Bees fly great. Dandelion is blooming and
the bees are working at full strength. And all the families!
Beehive E-1
day
The signal
level is not high and there is a signal in the field of excitation 500-550Hz. This
is usually due to very active bees' flights. Even when we make control from the
upper parts of the frames, the noise of the wings from a large number of
forager bees is heard. Therefore, we can say, that the diagnosis showed a
slightly underestimated picture. But it is clear, that the family have working
state. There is work with brought honey,
and there is heating of the nest. As we know, in this hive, a drone brood has
already been laid on the extreme frame. In Readiness for Honey Collection
mode, the device shows, that it is
possible to receive surplus honey, but a lot of it is used for the needs of the
family. The line is not far from the zero mark. In Brood Control mode, the
device shows the absence of a significant number of works on caring for open
brood. This is usually normal for daytime.
evening
In the
evening, the picture has changed. Today was the day of active work on honey
collection. The swarming mood subsided,
in-hive work became more active. Work with honey subsided. Apparently,
there was brought not too much nectar. Most of it was used for the needs of the
family. This can be also seen in the
diagnostics with the use of Readiness for Honey Collection mode. The chart is
almost on the zero line, although it is white. This suggests, that not much
honey left for storage ... diagnostics in the Brood Control mode showed, that
the bees were finally engaged in brood maintenance. And quite active. There are
many brood, and during the day the work shifted to the area of processing of
brought nectar. Night is the best time to work with brood. In general, the
family is close to the swarming state. A significant amount of brood
dramatically reduces its honey
production, at this stage.
Beehive 8-1
day
Daytime
monitoring of this family showed a very strong work, consisting of both in-hive
work and work on the processing of brought nectar. But, the strength of the in-hive
works is higher, and the diagnosis primarily speaks about them. Diagnostics in
Readiness for Honey Collection mode, shows the maximum degree of possibility of
obtaining marketable honey. The power of honey processing is very high.
evening
Evening
control showed that spring honey collection does not allow the swarming state
to form... General State Control mode shows a decrease in the overall strength
of the work. There is some aeration and ventilation of the hive. Diagnosis of
bees' family using the Readiness for Honey Collection mode showed a significant
decrease in bee activity in processing of brought nectar. Apparently, not so
much nectar was brought that it was possible to work with it in the evening too.
Diagnostics using Brood Control mode showed, that in the evening the bees
started to care for the brood. But the work is not strong... the schedule is
red, but it is not far from the zero line. In general, the family is strong and
able to use honey collection.
Beehive 5-1
day
Daytime monitoring
of this family in the General State Control mode showed, that the family is
mostly engaged in in-hive works. Brought nectar is mostly used for the needs of
the family. We can see the presence of excitement. Unfortunately, this family
had to delete the ants who were going to build a nest in the insulation
material. Diagnosis of a family in Readiness for Honey Collection mode confirms
that the family is not ready to give
marketable honey. The graph is white, but it fluctuates near the zero line.
evening
Evening
diagnosis has changed a bit. In-hive works are remained approximately of the
same strength. The main feature - is the growth of force of open brood care
signal. This can be seen in the diagram. Diagnosis of the family in Swarming
Control mode shows, that soon, the family can approach the borderline state and
can show the beginning of swarming state. But it’s too early to worry about it.
In general, the family is strong enough.
Beehive 5-2
Day
In the
afternoon, diagnostics of the family using General State Control mode showed,
that the family, although is not very active, but is in working state. At the
same time, the main works are shifted to the area of in-hive works. There is
some excitement. The reason is the same .. We had to delete ants who tried to
build a nest in the insulating material of the hive. Diagnostics using
Readiness for Honey Collection mode indicates, that there is no hope for
marketable honey, all nectar goes for feeding the family.
evening
Evening
diagnostics showed us, that by the evening, the bees were able to satisfy the
family's first needs for nectar, and despite the prevalence of in-hive works,
the family have quite strong works on nectar processing and on brood care. The
same is confirmed by more narrowly specialized modes. The Readiness for Honey
Collection mode shows us a white, but
close enough to zero line chart. Brood Control mode shows us a red chart. The
care for brood is of medium strength. In general, it is clear that the family
is gaining strength for swarming and for honey collection.
Beehive 8-2
day
Daytime
monitoring of the family shows the following ... Diagnostics in General State
Control mode shows a very active work of the family, including the processing
of brought nectar. This is also indicated by diagnostics in Readiness for Honey
Collection mode - the family has a lot of work related to the processing of
nectar, which for the most part will be stored in honey frames.
evening
Evening
diagnosis showed a lack of swarming mood. Both arrows are in the green zone. Diagnostics in General
State Control mode showed, that the overall strength of work in the evening
decreased. Diagnostics in Brood Control mode shows, that there are practically
no brood in the family. The graph is white and far from the zero line. It is
correct. There is no queen in this hive, capable of laying eggs. In this
family, we are growing new queen, instead of the removed, due to the damage,
one. There is practically no brood, the young queen should already have left
its cell, but it is hardly ready to lay eggs. In general, the family restores
the shape, lost due to the problems with old queen ...
