Monthly Research: A Quick Guide
Thank you for helping us build consistent, useful research. Each month, focus only on your designated research hives.
1. Keep the same pairs
Each pair = one PureWave® Cell hive + one control hive without a Cell. Report on BOTH hives in every pair, using the SAME designated pairs every month.
PureWave® Cells received | Pairs to report on monthly
1–5 | 1 pair (2 hives)
6–10 | 2 pairs (4 hives)
11–15 | 3 pairs (6 hives)
16–20 | 4 pairs (8 hives)
Additional groups of up to five Cells | Add one research pair
2. Show and explain
• Introduce yourself: name, location, and a brief update on local conditions.
• Identify each Cell hive and control hive. Show inside BOTH, including frames from each.
• Explain their differences or similarities in plain language a non-beekeeper can understand. No clear difference? Please say so.
3. Stay focused
Please skip whole-apiary tours, unrelated hives, and reports showing only one hive of a pair. We need consistent comparisons of your designated research pairs.
4. Recognize the support
Please include a brief thank-you to 4RBEES and its supporters for providing these items free of charge to support your bees and this research.
Program compliance & future allocations
To qualify to apply for allocations, you must follow the monthly research guidelines and meet all program compliance requirements for five consecutive months. A monthly report that does not follow these guidelines will not count toward those five compliant months. Meeting this requirement makes you eligible to apply; it does not guarantee an allocation.
Additional allocations may include:
• Additional PureWave® Cells
• Assistance with bee packages or nucs
• Assistance with queen replacements
• Assistance with organic wildflower seeds
Thank you for sharing your time and beekeeping expertise!
