For the beekeeping industry, early spring refers to one month between the beginning of spring and convulsions. Management measures are mainly observation and inspection.
The first comprehensive inspection must be quick. The bees lay eggs before and after the beginning of spring. Although the temperature difference between day and night is great, most of the queen bees have already started spawning. The time for the first comprehensive inspection depends on the temperature. Since the fall of 2014, the temperature is high, and this type of weather is most likely to appear cold and cold, affecting bee colony breeding. If the temperature is high, take a quick and rough inspection of the bee site one week after the beginning of Lichun, focusing on whether the queen is spawning or dying, whether it is deprived of honey, how many dead bees are on the bottom of the tank, whether it is humid and has rodent damage. Many bee colonies need to make records because of the group’s policies. As long as there are no unusual problems, do not open the box to check, so as not to attract stolen bees.
Bees are more than spleen-preserving temperatures. In early spring, the temperature difference between day and night is 89 degrees Celsius, and there are often cold currents to protect larvae. One is to withdraw the excess bee spleen. After one winter, the number of bees must be reduced. When the first examination is performed, the empty spleen or the eggless spleen can be withdrawn. The standard requirement is that the bees are more than the spleen, so that the spleen can be covered with bees and the larvae can be protected against frostbite. The second is the lack of honey to quickly change into the honey spleen prepared in the fall, cover a lot of the middle part of the cut with a honey knife, so that after emptying for spawning. The third is to strengthen the insulation, insulation board outside the filling of old cotton or wheat straw and other good insulation properties, the first half of the beehive covered with plastic sheets or mats cold.
Lost the king group to be careful. Observing outside the box will reveal that bee flusters are out of panic, are out of activities, and are easy to be stolen. Some workers will spawn if they are not replaced in time. For the group of lost kings, if the group is strong, they can introduce the weak group queen bees, and then use the king cage to hold it and release it after acceptance. It is easier to change the king in the spring, but it is also possible to merge the two groups. After the merger in the evening, spray a little smoke into the box. After the assimilation of the smell, no biting phenomenon is found. Do not unpack the box. After one day, remove the excess bee spleen.
Add pollen. Once the queen is spawning, the pollen must keep up. If there is no pollen spleen in the box, pollen discs can be set outside the apiary and placed in sweet potato or cornmeal. Water trays should be provided far from the water source.
Prevent robbers. First, the strong group breeds and merges the weak subgroups; second, the inspection time should not be too long; and third, there is conditional spring propagation in the plain area.
