Being as it’s not been the best spring so far does it mean the summer flows are going to be better, the blackberrys and wild clover are looking really good and the heather has had a fair bit of rain in may so far.
Thanks In advance c.g.f
 
The Spring flow here has been short but powerful! The bees filled supers really quickly once they were no longer starving. Absolutely from famine to feast.
Last year the weather knocked most of the bramble opportunities on the head, so we’re at the mercy of the Met Office!
 
Spring flow in Suffolk will be one to be remembered for the right reasons - but it’s not off yet…………
 
How long is a piece of string? Spring flow started 2 weeks late here but the weather is good and warm which helps.
2 years ago I didn't have a spring crop and the main summer crop was really good. Last year I had a really good spring crop and an average summer one. You just can't tell!
