First hive check of the season. I managed to get early man lake packages a few weeks ago. All queens took and I have small patches of capped brood, quite a bit of larva and likely eggs. Plenty of stores which I find amazing since little is blooming yet. This is the last check I can do until Mother's Day weekend. Wondering I should leave three eight frame mediums on or just two? I just added second box today, thinking add third tomorrow. Capped brood was only on parts of like two frames.
Willow has not started here yet, though I think soon. Not sure about red maple. Things are really just getting started. I am thinking three boxes, just in case. .?????
