In 2012 the borage I pollinated was sprayed with a new *systemic*
fungicide. I forget the name at the moment, but when I searched it I could
not find much about how it would affect beebread fermentation.
I thought that systemic fungicides was something new, but then I saw this
abstract

I was surprised to see the 1973 date.
