===Populating an empty skep === <!--T:6-->
Place an [[Cattails_(Reeds)|empty skep]] '''within seven blocks''' of the wild beehive.  If there are no flowers near the wild hive, the population will not increase enough to swarm. To increase the population, bees require at least five [[Flowers]] within seven blocks of the wild hive. Bees must explore their area to locate and feed on any newly placed flowers, but they will find these flowers over time.

The more flowers you place, the faster the process will go.
The more flowers you place, the faster the process will go - for example, playing 100 flowers into the seven blocks vicinity, and the swarming will only take about three ingame hours. Note that this does not include the time the bees need to recognize the flowers! You can check by hovering over the hive to see if they found them.
