Georgia Beeks; What to expect for Fall Flow?

[Shep1478]

Hey Y'all! 

1st year with bee's. I hived them (two hives) into a Deep on May 12th, and added a second deep on July 4th weekend. All seems well so far.

The last inspection I did was about 4 days ago. The second deep (on both new hives) are sort of looking good(?) as there are about 4 frames out of the 10 built out. As this is my 1st year, I truly don't expect to get any honey and I'm okay with that. I just want to get through the winter and hope to get it next year  :) I haven't removed the deeps I added over the July 4th weekend to inspect. When I did add the second deeps, they were slap full.

Anyways, What can I expect for a Fall flow here in Georgia? Is it at all possible that I Might get to add my Honey Supers to at least one hive? 

Thanks so much! This board is an absolute blessing!  I don't have anyone around here as far as I know to come over and have a peek!

A fall flow?    Low to none to zip to notta.  There will be a slight nectar flow of golden rod, aster, and a few other incidental plants. This is dark honey and the beekeeper does not harvest it. It remains in the hive for winter feed. However, don't count on this alone to get your bees through the winter!  The fall flow here at my house is 2 to 1 syrup.

I have some late blooming Stag Horn in my area. First time I have seen it bloom this late, ever.

The only thing we have blooming that I have seen this week are crape myrtle and some yellow blooming flower I saw on the side of the interstate today.   I took note of it and plan to figure out what it was.  But stag horn in the late summer/ fall?  That's something.

I'm expecting a better fall than last year due to these August rains.  This encouraged a lot of rural growth in my area.  Ironweed is a good indicator of other wildflowers to come and the ironweed is looking good.  Crape Myrtle has had a very, very long bloom this August.  We had such a good spring here, some wildflowers are double bloomers--blooming in spring, dropping seeds and blooming again in fall.  Another thing I like is a huge increase in flowering vines right now, some species I have never noticed and still need to key-out.  Looking forward to fall and leaving it in the boxes!
