Yep. Getting that way - £100 of sugar arrived yesterday as step one (and we leave honey on).

Balsam here too

 

[Vramin]

No Balsam Here!

Just read on the BBC news site that all the balsam has been cleared from the Ystwyth valley where I live, due to it being a SSSI. I didn't know that until today.

Here's the link, if anyone's interested.

Mine seem to be too least the one hive - concerned though leaving it on too long that the ivy looks like its ready to go everywhere.

Just got back from doing two nationals, put supers under. Wasps flying about which was a worry and the temperature low today. Still have a WBC to do but they have more stores and will have to wait till the end of next week. Of to a Bit of a Do on Saturday in Truro, hope it is as good as last year!

Are they actually bringing much in from the Balsam? There doesn't seem to be much evidence here.

Some Ivy in flower in Gilwern today.
