I dropped my van off at a local mechanic early this morning and wandered back via my main apiary over a recently ploughed field. In the field entrance I passed a couple of guys in tractors having a bite to eat before sowing.
I asked what they were sowing and they gave me a label for the Beemix which they were using.
I know lots of you out there are good on flowers so can you tell me approximately when the bees, which are about 100 yrds away, will be able to take advantage of this?
Stala Phacelia - 10%
Altaswede Red Clover - 20%
Esparsette Sanfion - 40%
Aurora Alsike Clover - 20%
Bruce Birdsfoot Trefoil - 10%
Cheers
