I potted a random batch of liquid honey at the weekend. it was very dark, probably heather. The remaining two containers from the last harvest had started to crystallise naturally so they will be potted in plastic pots. Glad it's over - now we have all the sugar-feed containers to clean and then we need to treat the hives with thymol before the winter to keep the varroa off. We will take some of the Espoo hives to Rosendal and put them behind the root cellar where there is a huge area of wild raspberry and, of course, the saskatoons.
