[QUOTE="gaspard, post: 2369, member: 237"] Hello EarthBoy, For most of southern beekeepers, our most important honeyflow is the lavender, because it is ( I guess ) more or less like the manuka in NZ. I mean, it is a honey that we only produce in our region, and it can be sale quite easily. Furthermore, when the conditions are there, this is the best honey crop in volume. The lavander like very dry calcareous soil. Cold temperatures is not a problem but they don't like humidity and rich soils. At this time, in our country, there is no studies that prouve there is OA resistant mites. So, OA is the N°1 product used by organic beekeepers, by far. The OA strips are more and more popular here, home made ones and factory made ( in romania ). But it is not legal !
