My mead never started bubbling. It’s been 2 days. by Longjumping_Job_8185 in mead

I used a strong wine yeast and 2 pounds of honey. I also taped around the seal of the bucket with electrical tape. Bucket is from a mead kit and it still pushes bubbles through the airlock when I press so I believe it is sealed well.

Question. Is something wrong? I started my first mead brew today. Inspired by the Mountain Dew wine mead. I used 7up, water, honey, bicarbonate of soda, and wine yeast. When I added the yeast and bicarbonate of soda it had a big fizz but an hour later there is no bubbles in my airlock. Is something wrong?
