This is my first year and my first harvest. I learned sooo much from this experience. Although I thought I read everything I could and reviewed all steps in my head 100 times, it's different when you actually do it! It was not pretty, but I managed to get more than 5 gallons from my one hive. It is very light colored honey. My questions have to do with the wet frames and my bees. I put the wet frames back on a super and near the hive for them to clean off since I have read of others doing this. What do I do next? Put everything back together for them to get ready for winter? Also, my bees were very agitated last night;lots of bearding even though I gave them plenty of room and ventilation. Will we ever be friends again now that I took their honey or are they preparing to leave me? Thanks for all the great help!
