Hello all,

Anyone else having to take OSR honey off? I checked moisture content today and all frames tested were showing around 16%. Have out clearer boards on.
 
I went through 48 colonies today and while I put on another 20 supers here and there they are definitely beginning to cap the honey and the earlier flowering OSR here probably has around another 7 days flowering (apart from the tramlines) and a later field perhaps 14 days…
Then a big job to pull the honey off and extract it all and split half the
(North Wiltshire)

Think the flow in the lothians has been a bit stop start with the weather.
