I read somewhere recently, that those in oil seed rape areas should consider feeding a 1 to 1 syrup to stimulate brood expansion, about 6 weeks before the nectar flow of the rape. The idea being that you maximise the amount of foragers when the rape is in full flower.
I am not in an oil seed rape area, but was wondering if and when I need to consider spring feeding?
