We at MTT Agrifood Research Finland have had a scale hive net service running
already for 2 honey seasons. The url for last summer results is
http://www.mtt.fi/ktl/ksu/bees/vaakapesat2002.html. There is a link to a summary graph
of all stations on the page: "Yhteenveto kesästä 2002" or a direct link to the graph
http://www.mtt.fi/ktl/ksu/bees/kaikkiasemat.gif. This tells that our main flow in 2002 was
very early, ending about at Midsummer. But that is quite exceptional. Normally the
honey flow is longer, up to mid-August. This happened for example in the summer 2001
