whats up with the -time reed skeps ?

[Veronica Hohenheim]

I got that more info mod that showes me when a thing will be done and for the first time I am doing beekeeping properly ( my first try I destroyed the skep before allowing others to repopulate and now I have 3 skeps next to each other as a group and each group has a 2 block distance from eachother,currently there is 4 groups).So what is that mean ? Did I do something wrong ? Is it mean  I gotta collect it like yesterday or something ?

I see negative timers now and then with things like fruit trees ("ripe in -0.4 days") or cheese ripening. But I just wait it out and eventually the processes always complete...

The negative time from that mod indicates the anticipated growth cycle should have completed that much time in the past.  But, RNG.

That mod is a great way to learn how beekeeping works under the hood. Look at the population and time left of skeps that swarmed and those that the swarm went to. If you really flog the mechanic, in a week you can end up with more wax and honey than you can ever use.
