Do you have any recommendations on what ratio works best?

Absolutely! Check out the posts from last year around this time (1st hive check April 28 last year) for what is up and coming, this weekend marks 2 weeks since hiving so we will be checking bees this weekend and posting what we’re seeing this year!

I am trying not to be a bear (ha ha), but I am new to this and want to get a better feel for what I should be checking for. I have been checking You tube but want to have information that is consistent with our area.
