In what season do bees collect honey?

The honey picking season is spring. In fact, the honey picking season is spring and summer, which is a good time for bees to pick honey. As long as the weather is fine, worker bees go out to collect nectar every day.

Honey collection by bees depends on the flowering time of plants, and the time of honey collection by bees in different places is different. For example, litchi honey in southern Fujian blooms in the middle and late April and secretes honey at night. In the morning, bees began to go out to collect honey in large numbers.

Longan honey blooms from late April to mid-May, secretes honey during the day, and bees go out to collect honey all day. Sapium sebiferum blooms in June and July, and also secretes honey during the day, and bees collect honey all day.

Extended data:

Hard-working bees also adjust the time of collecting honey according to the time when the honey source blooms. There are spring honey, summer honey and autumn honey everywhere;

1, spring honey: there are the most kinds of spring honey, because there are many kinds of flowers in full bloom in spring, but there is more water in spring, so spring honey is generally sparse;

2. Summer honey: The quality of summer honey is slightly better than that of spring honey. There are also many flowers in summer, and many bees collect honey.

3, autumn honey: autumn honey is better than the honey of the previous two seasons.
