those flow hives are proprietary, prone to break, and kinda crappy overall

2017-10-18 21:17:42 UTC  

(i love beekeeping)

2017-10-18 21:21:04 UTC  

if you want a rabbit hole to fall down for a while, look at michael bush's talks on beekeeping

2017-10-18 21:22:04 UTC  

hes a greybeard beekeeper, has a lot of thoughts on the prevelance of varroa in the late 20th century and other stuff

2017-10-18 21:23:26 UTC  

@neetkthx wow, that's good to know!

2017-10-18 21:23:37 UTC  

Thanks for the info

2017-10-18 21:24:20 UTC  

its fascinating

2017-10-18 21:24:33 UTC  

i fell down the 'i want to keep bees in general' hole a few years ago

2017-10-18 21:25:21 UTC  

you start reading and watching, then its like 'you must treat for varroa or else' then you are like ok, whats the best way to treat, then you eventually find michael bush and realize you and everyone else might be big dummies

2017-10-18 21:26:17 UTC  

colony collapse disorder, as far as anyone knows, isnt caused by one thing, but by a whole bunch of things, one of which is the varroa mite

2017-10-18 21:27:28 UTC  

How hard is bee keeping?

2017-10-18 21:27:40 UTC  

there's a solid chance that the reason varroa became so prevalent in the 80s-90s and is such an issue today, is that in the 60s-70s, they were fighting other parasites by treating with erythromycin(iirc) pretty heavy, and the varroa being less susceptable outcompeted the other parasites

2017-10-18 21:27:45 UTC  

its not hard at all

2017-10-18 21:28:02 UTC  

the hardest part about beekeeping is not going out every day and fucking with your hives

2017-10-18 21:28:20 UTC  

real talk

2017-10-18 21:28:26 UTC  

gotta let them bees be bees

2017-10-18 21:29:23 UTC  

the real question is, how hard is it to make a living beekeeping

2017-10-18 21:29:27 UTC  

(real hard)

2017-10-18 21:31:27 UTC  

its like, how many times can you open the oven door before the souffle falls? well lets find out

2017-10-19 06:09:08 UTC  

We need beekeepers. Those precious little buzzers are slowly going extinct, and we need some guys who help them survive. Also, in some folk traditions bees have sacred significance.

2017-10-19 07:20:55 UTC  

Love the lil buzzers

>We must secure the existence of our honey and a future for bee children

2017-10-19 15:50:03 UTC  

Yeah I was thinking the same things, the problem the bees are facing is like a perfect analogy to us

2017-10-19 15:51:31 UTC  

>mfw literally african bees are the same as black people

2017-10-19 16:24:28 UTC  

Or Islamization

2017-10-19 16:24:49 UTC  

Two heads of the same hydra really

2017-10-19 16:28:43 UTC  

Maybe the honeybee has untapped potential as a symbol of white identity

2017-10-19 16:28:59 UTC  

>inb4 people start killing bees because white supremacy
