A beautiful area Langstrothdale was once heavily wooded, and its upper northern reaches open moorland. It formed a royal hunting ground known as Langstrothdale Chase, or the Forest of Langstroth. In the early 17th century the dale passed

Snow white-bodied male “drone” honey bees 👻 A first for me, and my honeybee researcher/mentor (the legendary), Randy Oliver. More info in alt text for newbees. Anyone ever see this? 🌱

Today, on World Bee Day, here’s a fun fact for you: the first movable frame hive was invented by a Ukrainian beekeeper Petro Prokopovych in 1814.
Nearly four decades later, Lorenzo Langstroth obtained a patent for his movable frame hive in the US in 1852.

isekai books where the mc is literally born into the new world are always so funny. the mc is inventing ice cream and langstroth hives, and haggling with merchants and negotiating with military captains, who are taking them seriously. and they're like 5 years old.

Bee space: Honeybees build comb precisely 3/8 of an inch apart. Any smaller gaps are filled with propolis (bee glue), larger spaces filled with comb. Langstroth designed a hive with removeable frames spaced 3/8 apart, so the bees filled the frames but didn’t glue them in place. Ta-da, honey harvest!

The weird thing is, lumber is so expensive right now that it's actually worth it just to buy (economy) hive boxes rather than build my own from 1x12s.
For $20 I can get a 1x12x6, or for $18.95 I can get an unassembled Langstroth Deep already cut to the right size. (Plus shipping.)

Here’s from the Long Langstroth hive: they’ve successfully moved to the back frames.
I don’t like how much moisture is condensing on the right, but at least it’s not over the cluster.

Casli and Akari are childhood friends from Langstroth. they still keep in touch after Casli moved away to fight in bug city. consider it a friendly rivalry, though Casli wins most of their fights.
