When is the best time for bees to collect honey?

There are two kinds of beekeeping: mobile beekeeping and fixed beekeeping. Fixed beekeeping is to collect the nectar of open flowers in one place one by one according to the flowering period. Mobile beekeeping moves from south to north from spring to summer according to the flowering period of specific flowers.

The flowering peak of plants will not be too long. In order to collect nectar from a place, bees only collect nectar from specific flowers.

The annual schedule of fixed beekeeping is similar to the natural state, but it will change according to the flowering period of the beekeeping place. For example (depending on the local climate):

From April to May, the queen bee began to lay eggs, and three weeks later, the worker bees began to work. Each hive needs about 20,000 to 30,000 worker bees.

In May and June, the beehive will be placed outdoors to collect honey. After the honeycomb board is filled with honey, control the activity of bees with smoke, take out the honeycomb board and take honey with a centrifuge.
