Third time better be the charm

Couple updates.
MB7 increases cyano, not helping.
Sunny is now being called Big Mama.
The damsels in the office tank have laid eggs.
Things are ok. Needs to get better outside soon.

If I rolled and twisted like that, I wouldn't be able to walk right for a week! 🤣

Thats next on the list of things to try.
 
So the bees are buzzing again. Just throwing this out there. There maybe honey available next month. It all depends on the weather but its warming up, just rainy. Message me if your interested. First come first served.

So did 2 of your 3 hives end up making it through the winter?

Cleared out area and got 1 coat on 1 new hive. Then storms rolled through and temp dropped. Inside day today with tanks. More paint tomorrow.

We are finally getting some stormy weather here too. It HAD to wait until the kids are out of school for spring break! Actually kinda glad I am going in to work today! 🤣
 
It rained last night out here and it's cloudy today.

April is trying to prank us. It'll be 100° again by next week I'm sure.
 
Water test Wednesday. Slept in yesterday so whatever.

Cyano is still present. But trade off is that its keeping nutrients in a good place. Had it since September. I guess its just a fact that it will be part of the tank now.

Bee yard is almost ready for the new hives. Just need to move some things to make room. Need more muscle to do that and needs to be at night. Maybe Sunday after I pick up Mike from the airport. Probably not though.
