Now in my second year of having Bees.
Did first inspection of the year today.
Saw the Queen.
Have brood in all stages about 50 drone cells, that's normal for this time of year ?
Brood on 3 frames.
I have a couple of frames of what I think is ivy honey , it is very dark.
Will the Bees use this as I have been told it's very hard and having overwintered may have crystalised ?
Also is honey that has had varroa treatments, Apiguard in autumn and oxalic vape around the end of december inedible.
Is it harmful to humans or just tastes like crap ?
