Will add a pristine set of supers to Buckybeast within a week and put exiting ones on other colonies.
Ah... The old lime thread maybe this year the limes will be favourable. Not had a success on them yet.
i get quite a lot of lime honey, real luminous green/yellow honey when you first extract it
though needs the right damp warm weather to get a really good flow
I got loads of beautiful lime honey last year. Over the winter the avenue of limes very near the hives had been pollarded, so there will be nothing this year sadly.

Ahh that's what lime trees look like. I'm going to get my pocket book of trees and go to the park across the road to suss out what there is.
Bet you get loads!...if you do...can I come and taste it?

Oh no!!!
Probably won't ever flower again either.
An old timer told me it takes seven years from pollarding to produce a useful flow of lime honey
