Apples, Bee's and Flowers

[zzexx]

How does one know when the best time to pick their apples is? I dont see anything on it.

Does the flower variety have anything to do with maxing honey production?

How close should the flowers be planted to the hives?

Will one get honey from just the wild flowers?

What is the relationship of styrofoam and deep space?


eh skip that last one ..... : )

Best time to pick the apples is when the apples are red (grow time 40 days).
Hives gives honey from wild flowers

[Sillysally]

Gives more with flowers planted around it, Grow more apples with hives near them, so why not plant flowers around hives below apples
Not sure if the variety has anything to do with honey at this time/

Also for your orchard you can add a scarecrow, which is supposed to increase the production rates of nearby crops.

Have my scarecrows up, waiting on more cash to finish the bee hives. I am getting close to september, so may let the last 2 sets go until april.

I am now debating if the fields are even worth it. May try going the greenhouse route since thats where most of my money is coming from.

Sally , yes i have about 200 roses planted haha, may fill in alot of the apple tree are too.
