Goldenrod Honey
On Saturday, September 18 I extracted 30 lbs. of goldenrod honey. I think I'm getting the hang of this. No problems with scratching off the cappings and running the frames through the extractor this time. I didn't extract about five nearly full frames because sections were still uncapped. The goldenrod is still blooming, the weather is still warm and beautiful, and the bees are still wildly foraging so I'm hoping to extract some more in October. Still lots of capped brood and the second deep is full of honey. Looking good for fall and winter. Now about those mites....
