SE shore of Lake Ontario. Should know in a few weeks what the bees will do with it. Aster in maybe about 2 weeks or so.

I bought one. After the shipping hassle (Brushy Mountain did not inform of shipment date, AS REQUESTED), this EXPENSIVE extractor was still wired for EUROPEAN USE ONLY. OK, big mistake by Brushy...

Good to see----I've got a long wait until my Package Bees arrive, to refill the boxes from the dead hives. I painted them the same light green too.
He wants you to give him money for bees he'll inspect when he feels like it, on land he doesn't own? And he's not sure he wants to sell? (probably a bargaining tactic)
