We often meet older people and always feel the most reliable. People ignore that bad people get old. In fact, each of us believes in the elderly, but now the elderly are not necessarily kind. Now I finally understand. These people are more treacherous and cunning, and indeed the bad guys are getting old. Bees must have a large number of honey sources to collect honey, and these honey sources must be very large. It doesn't mean that you can collect honey from two trees or a seasonal flower pond for a month. I said in Bee magazine that one gram of honey needs to collect 1500 to 1600 flowers, so that we can know how many nectar plants are needed for beekeeping. We beekeepers generally need bees to collect more and better honey in the flowers of the whole mountain and river. The roadside bees around the city do not have the conditions to collect honey, even if there are dust flowers covered with mud bees everywhere, there is no way to collect honey.
Where there is a honey source, there must be bees. You can go to the bee colony and take a closer look. Bees are busy coming in and out, which means bees are stronger. If two or three bees fly a minute, it means that there are not many bees in this group. This bee farm may be selling dog meat with sheep's heads hanging, and no strong bees can collect honey. I have seen the bee farm now. There are only a few boxes around the tent, and the others are empty. This kind of thing is not our beekeeping industry, but selling honey. Quality is really not guaranteed. Here comes the technical point: honey is picked up. Because the sound is very loud when picking honey, you can buzz in the bee farm when picking honey.
In fact, there are many shops selling honey on the roadside, and in most cases there is very little real honey. Don't be fooled by the seller's rows of beehives and erected tents. Most of them don't look at the bees when they see the hive, and do everything possible to prevent customers from opening the hive, emphasizing that the bees have gone out to collect honey. They are definitely fake beekeepers, and honey is of course fake. These honeys are usually boiled by adding sugar, adhesive, citric acid and spices to water, and then adding pigments to adjust the color.
