Youtube
Its a great resource. But... As of May 2019, more than 500 hours of video were uploaded to YouTube every minute. This equates to approximately 30,000 hours of newly uploaded content per hour. You cannot watch all that, and noone is doing much quality control.
I will provide links here to videos that I think every beekeeper should watch. Because they are of value. If you have a video you think should be on this page, mail it to me, I might include it, if its good.
