Despite the brilliant weather I have only taken off 90 lbs summer honey from six hives. Mind you, its agri-business around here with cereals and sugar beet and few hedges or gardens. Alongside my apiary is an avenue of 12 lime trees but I don't think they yielded much. Spring crop was better if not brilliant - 250 lbs - OSR 800m distant. I've taken two hives to the heather at Dunwich Heath but heather is in poor condition probably due to drought. How are other forumites fairing?
