That was polywoven packaging strap. can be bought through Secure Load in Tauranga, Packaging House, RL Button and other’s packaging suppliers.

Contact Aerofast directly for buying just the webbing.

Next time I’m at the Apiary I’ll take a pick of the whole tree. Lots of things growing on it so I may have not been looking at the host tree.

Karaka. Is this Karaka? This particular tree has a very old Rata vine climbing through it and a few other epiphites up in it higher branches.

I had read that. It seems it would be good honey to blend with a sweeter type. although I get the feeling this crop will never see a flower. i wonder if I can convince them to sow another 10 acres just for the bees🤔😁

A few Waikato farms where I have hives are setting up to sow chicory, I wonder if they are planning for a dry summer? @M4tt?

😁 I haven’t lifted any FD boxes of honey since I can’t remember 2 seasons ago.

Got the spa pool. Needs a clean out after mister 9 thought it would cool to put dish wash detergent in with him. It was cool for him, not for me

Woke up this morning with the worst frozen neck I have ever had. Muscles on my left shoulder had spasm so tight I couldnt turn my head left or right or even lean forwards. A morning trip to Rotorua to my wife’s chiropractior who managed to get the muscles loosened up and half as painful as it was. Then back to Beekeeping duties out feeding nucleus colonies. Moving and stretching definitely helped but now that I am home a sitting down I can feel it all cramping up again 😟

Made the dog transparent too😁

Just have a go and work out a method that works with the tools and jigs that you have.

Yes I have those to attach my eyelashes to...😆 No eyelets like the Russian Pine ones.

No. It does help to have calloused fingers and hard fingernails though. Although my 15 year old daughter us very good at wiring frames this way.

Yup there too. What are you doing with the hive tool way down there?
