Is A Dry Or Wet Season Best For Honey?

Bee Keeping: Mysteries Of Bee-keeping Explained

The inquiry is often made, "What kind of season is best for bees, wet

or dry?" This point I have watched very closely, and have found that a

medium between the two extremes produces most honey. When farmers begin

to express fears of a drought, then is the time (if in the season of

flowers) that most honey is obtained; but if dry weather passes these

limits, the quantity is greatly diminished. Of the two extremes,

perhaps very wet is the worst.
