Extra Power (96714) is an advanced and enhanced configuration of Standard (90114) containing greater amount of high protein of pollen substitute, trace elements, and amino acids of high biological value. Thus, it is an excellent pollen patty that achieves what Standard (90114) does and additionally achieves:
• Greater and faster increase of bee colonies, even if there is no pollen in the environment, provided that the other preconditions for the queen bee to give birth are met (such as nectar or stimulant supply etc.).

Effects and results:
• Maintains your bee colonies in an excellent condition
• An enormous increase of their population even if there is no pollen in the environment and the other preconditions for the queen bee to give birth are met (such as nectar or stimulant supply etc.)
• The bees become more productive and thus the production of honey and other bee-originated products is also increased
The result is bigger and more productive bee colonies
BeeNectar provides five different high-quality pollen patties that are customized to the needs of your bee colonies giving the opportunity to the beekeeper to choose among foods that can be used to maintain, grow and fight against serious diseases* or a combination of them. Each pollen patty type consists of sugars enriched with vitamins, proteins and trace elements that vary in consistency depending on the purpose of use (maintenance, growth, combat serious diseases) ensuring a complete and balanced diet. Pollen patties of BeeNectar consist of high protein pollen substitute, not natural one, so that there will not be any danger of diseases transmission. This allows the beekeeper to build bee colonies able to produce any bee product (honey, pollen, propolis, etc.).
*BeeNectar’s pollen patties strengthen the bees and their immune system, making them capable of fighting against Varroa, Nosema and Ascosphaere pathogens without medicines.
BeeNectar’s pollen patties should be placed in the center of the hive and specifically on the top of the brood populated hive frames, opening a large hole at the nylon pack, without the fear of drying out. When the temperature of the environment is below 22-25oC, the opening must face downwards (towards the frames), whereas when the temperature is over 22-25oC, the opening must face upwards (towards the lid).
The solid foods (pollen patties), especially Standard (90114), VN-Power (93414) and A-Extra Power (92619), should not be used when the beehive cover is not properly insulated and there is danger that the temperature under the cover is over 38oC (especially when it is covered with metal sheet). In those cases (high temperature and absence of insulator), it is preferable to use VN-Extra Power (96614) and Extra Power (96714).
Available in packages of 1kg packed in boxes that contain 24 pieces. The dimension of each box is 55cm x 27,1cm x 15,7cm.

Advantages of Extra Power (96714) in comparison to other foods on the market
Thanks to Extra Power (96714) appropriate consistency, there will be an enormous increase of the population of the existing healthy bee colonies.
• Placement of 1kg per 10 populated hive frames once a week is recommended. However, more than 1kg can be placed at a time when it is not possible to visit the apiary on a weekly basis.
• Extra Power (96714) should be placed in the center of the hive and specifically on the top of the brood populated hive frames, opening a large hole at the nylon pack, without the fear of drying out. When the temperature of the environment is below 22-25oC, the opening must face downwards (towards the frames), whereas when the temperature is over 22-25oC, the opening must face upwards (towards the lid).
If the bee colonies are weak due to a disease (Varroa, Nosemosis, Ascosphaera) you must choose another type of our foods that strengthens the bees to fight against the disease(s) (i.e. VN-Extra Power, VN-Power, A-Extra Power) or follow the appropriate treatment in combination with Standard (90114).
