What is the 7/10 rule in beekeeping?
You should not open your hive more often than once every two weeks. Inspections are stressful for bees and they disturb the carefully controlled atmospheric conditions within the hive. However, you should do regular inspections every 2-4 weeks to monitor your colonies health and progress.
