I have a 3ah but between the 2x6ah and the 3ah I got about 45 done. If as I hope I will be doing my summer treatments in the same way I’m going to need another couple of 6ah to do all mine in a day.Get a cheap 2Ah to heat it up first
Hmmm yes.I have a 3ah but between the 2x6ah and the 3ah I got about 45 done. If as I hope I will be doing my summer treatments in the same way I’m going to need another couple of 6ah to do all mine in a day.
Whlie here it is dark, damp and the road outside is muddy due to the farmer harvesting his maize crop from a soaking wet field which then had about 5cm rain on it and bringing a tide of mud out of the gate bypassing the drain and bringing it down the street in the village. Not flooding the houses but making a right mess in the road. However, as a plus no lizards, snakes, wasps or hornets at the moment and the bees still alive and well........... Like the Irishman with the large family said, be thankful for small Murphys as his wife gives birth again.It's hard to believe, but just a bit over a week, and the days will be at their longest down here.
As the blistering sun now reaches its zenith, the ants and lizards are in full swing and the aromas in the apiaries is a powerful sensory combination of the aroma of dry gum leaves and bark (and all crunchy underfoot) , formic acid wafting in the warm air from the inevitable crushed ants, honey and propolis aromas from the hives and sounds of beautiful songbirds in full voice up in the gums.
