Just starting beekeeping. I live in southwestern Michigan. Picking up package bees on May 26th 2018. I?ve been reading, watching videos, joined a bee club and the more I find out, the more confused I get. There?s so many opinions, methods etc. that it?s hard to know what to do. I got the ?Beekeeping for Dummies book which came with my kit. It?s an easy read and gives me a starting point. I?m also purchasing Langstroth?s book The Hive and the Honey Bee book that was updated in 2015. After all my research I?ve come to the conclusion that I need to try out what I think best and hopefully it will work. There?s so many variables with beekeeping that I need to find what works for me by trying out different methods. Anyway, I hope I posted this in the correct forum. I will appreciate any and all help I will get From this forum.
