Advice based on the weather

  • Advice on what your bees need now, based on the weather at your site and your journal.
  • Advice all year round: from the spring inspection and swarming through splits and honey to feeding and winter treatment.
  • At higher sites spring advice comes later, just like spring.
  • Warns about frost after warm days and, at forest sites, about cement honey.
  • Every piece of advice says why and how. Skip advice that doesn’t fit and say why if you like.

Can I open the hives?

  • Shows whether you can open a hive today and at what time. If not, when at the earliest.
  • Takes into account whether the hives stand in the open, sheltered, in a bee house or in a mobile trailer.

Overview and calendar

  • The overview shows advice, the weather for the week and what comes next.
  • The calendar shows journal entries and days that suit work with the bees.
  • Before winter it reminds you of small jobs: mouse guards and protecting combs from wax moth.

Journal

  • Log in seconds, even with gloves on, for one hive or the whole site.
  • Without signal the entry stays on your phone and sends itself later.
  • Each entry keeps the weather of the day. For treatments you pick from registered products.
  • Browse the journal by site and by hive.

Sites and hives

  • Create a site on the map or from your phone’s location.
  • Hives in the order they stand, with origin and number of boxes.

Notifications and emails

  • A phone notification comes only when something could be missed: frost, swarming, treatment or feeding.
  • On Monday morning an email summary arrives: what is coming up, the weather and what you logged last week.

Shared apiary

  • Share your apiary, for example with family. Everyone sees the same hives, journal and advice.

And also

  • In Czech, German and English. Add Beelendar to your phone’s home screen.
