I'm in my 1st productive year since moving locations (and a long break from bees). Recently extracted 50Kg and about half as much still on some hives.
However I now seem to be in a honey flow, lots of activity & hives humming like mad at night.
There is heather in the area though not sure enough close enough and everything I have extracted so far has flowed alright in the spinner.
Is there an easy way to tell if it's heather? Decap a bit and see if it flows?
