I know its been a spell sense I been here but I need to know if other's have this. yesterday June 5 I removed a swarm of bees and the amount of honey was about none. we are finish with the main flow but the blooms from the tallow tree just bloomed about a week ago and this hive had about zero honey and the tallow trees were all around this hive. the bee count was high but no honey. tallow trees are late again this year in s.w. la. as of last week, may 27 no honey was been produce for about 45 of my 52 hives. anybody else having this luck alone the gulf cost where tallow trees grow?

I live in Welsh, mine seem to be doing OK, but this is only my second year into beekeeping. Only have 5 hives right now,
One is doing real good, have 6 med. Supers on that hive, which 3 supers are completely capped right now.
The other hives are still kinda weak with only one super on each.
So comparing to last year  this time, they seem to be doing ok.
