How to take honey out of the hive

This method is a common wooden barrel culture method in the past. The bees make their own spleen without putting the nest base, which belongs to semi-wild culture method, and takes less honey, usually once or twice a year, and can take it three times in places with rich honey sources. Common farming methods are divided into wooden barrels and crates. Wooden barrels are cultivated with hollow wooden sticks, which are generally divided into two ways: horizontal and vertical, while crates are generally honeycombs made of six boards, which are also divided into vertical and horizontal ways. There are many kinds of beehives, and there are no standard specifications. Beekeepers everywhere are free to play, and they are all breeding methods without nest foundation.

In addition to the above two methods, there is actually another feeding method of Chinese bees that is less, but this feeding method is adopted in some places, that is, taking honey in the grid box. This kind of hive can be said to be a typical multi-box breeding of Chinese bees. The method of feeding is the same as above, and the method of taking honey is the same, except that the honeycomb is layered by the lattice box, and the size of the lattice box can be controlled according to the colony potential.

Second: the way of taking honey.

This kind of feeding method takes honey after honey is ripe, which is generally subject to a large number of honey taken by bees, with little cover. When taking honey, the smoked bees expose the nest spleen, then cut off the honey spleen with a honey cutter and put it in, and filter it with a filter. Because this kind of sugar spleen has no nest base, it is impossible to use centrifugal separation honey shaker, and most of them take honey by hand. This kind of breeding method is generally the breeding of Chinese bees, which is what we often call earth honey, and the sales price in the market is relatively high.
