      Honey makes a fantastic, healthier, replacement for sugar when baking also.
      The refined white sugar used by everyone pretty much, is not a healthy product, go for demerara sugar which a a dark brown and you have something healthier. Honey is a very healthy natural sweetener.

      No, it doesn't matter as long as the hives are disease free. The only concern is American Foul Brood spreading from hive to hive. But, if you don't have it, you can put them wherever. I mix frames between hives frequently for various reasons.

      It's really hard to gauge a flow without decades of experience.
      For my area I need strings of days with temps above 85F to trigger white clover to produce nectar. I'm very happy when it rains at night. We just got the ground recharged with like 5 inches of rain in two days. I'm good for a week. Stack em up boyz! Seriously I'm usually pulling supers by July 4th and this year I might be just putting them back on empty to get refilled. We have endless flow years. I'm crossing my fingers.

    Now I'm curious what some honey produced by a hive near arbutus trees would taste like.
    The arbutus tree is local for my area and is a flowering fruit tree that is known to attract bees.
    If you have dry, sandy soil in an exposed area you might have the conditions to grow them, if you can source seedlings or saplings. They do make a very nice finishing detail hardwood ( a brittle hardwood so not good for structural use ) but are not a widespread species of tree so unlikely to ever find it available.

    I set some swarm traps on the homestead, unfortunately I haven’t gotten any takers yet. It seems as though there is a decline in the population this year. I haven’t seen as many workers in my clovers as I did in the previous years 🤔. Last year I found over 5 large hives in the hollowed out cavities of some old oaks. I just let them bee hoping I could get them to my nuc. I’m just getting into bee keeping and I’m trying to keep from buying cultivated bees even though that would be the quicker way of getting started. Maybe I’ll get lucky next year.

Once I put on the suit to help rob the bees as he put it the video sound took me back. Thanks for that I did once only because the sound was so intense my brother help all the time.
