I didn't know dandelions gave nectar, I thought they were all pollen.

If the weather is right there can be a really good flow(nectar) from dandelion. It tastes bitter but I wouldn't say it was not for human consumption.

Mine are bringing it in.....big time. I planned on leaving it to them anyway, but if there is a dandy around, they are on it......

It's a nice dark honey and is usually the first good flow of the year around here.

Our brood chambers can get pretty plugged with dandilion honey if the conditions are right spot on. Dandies are everywhere here.

This must be a location thing. Here in Ohio, we get a big strong flush of them real early in the "bee year". They use it for early spring build up, than, they are mostly gone for the rest of the summer. Usually, this early in the ballgame, removing honey is the last thing on my mind. Must be a location thing I guess.

Where I live bees hardly even touch the dandelions. There must be too many floral sources they prefer.

My bees have bee bringing it in like crazy. Some have even look as if they have rolled in it. This early in the year the bees will be using pollen and what little nectar will be used for brood building.
