The days are short and there is not much left to do with the bees. Time for a new craft project! 6 Beelogger hive scales are being built - 3 for the garden beekeeper, and 3 for his beekeeper mentor. The hive scales will regularly send the hive weight, temperature and humidity to the cloud via LTE mobile communications. This data can be accessed at any time from anywhere in the world.
