> My experience is that you get a substantial boost in bees, compared to not doing it.
This keys in to my most recent post which asks: compared to what? Did you compare hives in the same apiary that did and did not get pollen substitute and how was this boost quantified? Assuming you had controls, did the treatment hives have better survival, more frames of bees going into almonds, or some other metric?
