Understanding Weight Charts

Weight charts are the primary tool for monitoring hive health and honey production. Learn to read the different chart types and what they tell you.

  • Chart Types Available
Tip: Sudden weight drops often indicate swarming, while gradual increases show honey production. Look for patterns that repeat seasonally.

Time Period Filters

Use time filters to focus on specific periods and analyze data at different scales. Choose from preset periods or create custom date ranges.

  • Last 24 Hours
  • Last Week
  • Last Month

Data Interpretation

Learn to recognize important patterns in your hive data and understand what they mean for your beekeeping management.

Warning: Always combine data analysis with physical hive inspections. Data guides your decisions but cannot replace hands-on beekeeping expertise.
5

Customizing Your Charts

Each chart has its own settings panel accessible via the gear icon in the chart header. Customize the appearance to suit your preferences — settings are saved automatically and persist between sessions.

Tip: Your chart settings are saved per chart and persist between sessions. Multi-device charts only support line width and smooth options (color and area fill are fixed per device).
