💗🐝Our Backyard Beekeeping Journey!🐝💗

@Baymule, I forgot to tell you, I spoke to my husband about the homeopathic information you shared with me. He doesn't want to spend the extra money at this time. As long as the bees are healthy, we'll just keep doing the OA treatments. It works well, is cheap and it really does keep the bees healthy. I have it bookmarked in case he changes his mind. Thank you for sharing it with me.

We worked on the bog filter for the bee pond and decided how to place the waterfall feature. It's a long way from finished, but it's coming along. We will be doing rock work and plants around it and we need some pvc parts to finish the bog.

It was windy, per usual...lol

Are you going to secure the spillway in place with rocks? Or...?

We'll secure it somehow. Just haven't gotten that far yet. Thinking about it now. Might be able to use construction glue. Need to figure out if it will adhere to the plastic, it's great for cement. I think we still have an unopened tube of it, but not sure that it's still good. Hubs is the rock man, he said we'll use rock to hide the cement blocks. So, he probably has an idea already.

I believe the weight of the water will help, but I would think a less than permanent solution would be prudent...like using gravel or rocks
