To work with greenhouse families, the beekeeper spends much more time and labor than on the commodity apiary, located compactly. The beekeeper, who services bees in winter greenhouses, does not have seasonal work: in November, the bees are put in the winter hut, and in the second half of January they are again put into […]
An important condition for the development of bee colonies, preservation of their health and saturated pollination of greenhouse crops is the provision of bee families with honeycomb (wax drying). In large beekeeping farms, the sushi is stored in sewers, where frames with a small distance are suspended from one another on racks. Thanks to the […]
To bee families were strong, productive and less swarmed, on advanced apiaries it is customary to change up to half of the queens annually. They change not only the old queens, but also the queens of bee colonies that are prone to swarming or who do not possess economic-useful traits, as well as those hatched […]
It is considered that the microclimate of greenhouses has a negative effect on bees. In order to weaken the influence of the greenhouse microclimate on bees, special rooms for hives were set up, and casings were used. Even different designs of hothouse hives have been proposed. To convince colleagues of the futility of further searches […]
In the bee families exhibited in January in the hothouse, a lot of broods appear in a week. To grow it you need honey, perga and water. In search of food, bees come into active state. Usually already on the first opened flowers there are bees. Sometimes, with belated transfer of bees to greenhouses, especially […]
Under identical conditions of maintenance on each apiary, bee colonies differ in speed of development and productivity. This indicates the lack of breeding work with bees. Praise is deserved only by that beekeeper, in the economy of which the indices of each family’s honey collection differ little from the highest. With the systematic improvement of […]
The basis for the “training” of bees is the teaching of IP Pavlov on the influence of the food stimulus on the physiological reactions of animals, that is, on the creation of a corresponding conditioned reflex. Reflex is the body’s response to irritation. Agronomists have been observed that, despite the large amount of nectar in […]
Cucumbers are one of the main crops grown in greenhouses. This is a highly profitable culture, which is of great importance in human nutrition. Cucumbers contain 94-95% water, 1.5-2 – sugar, 1 – protein and 0.75% fiber. In addition, they have aromatic substances, pectonizing enzymes that promote the assimilation of proteins and vitamins B, B2, […]
Cleaning bees in the winter hut. Wintering bees is the most important period in the life of bees. From its outcome depends the state of the apiary and the further ability of the bees to saturated pollination. If bees make late (in the central regions of the country at the end of October) a purge […]
In a time-free period, especially with a sudden cessation of honey collection, old bees, worried about the need to replenish fodder reserves, wind around the storehouse where they store food for them, and at the tapping of foreign hives, trying to penetrate them. Watch bees of strong families protect honey reserves well and do not […]
