On the other hand, in the U.S. at least, the vast majority of the commercial
beekeepers who produce honey go out of their way to produce a pure floral
crop.  They only use supplemental feeding to either build the colonies up in
advance, or to give them winter stores.

Okay then prior to running for the various honey crops with bees built up with supplemental feeding, how do they get all the artificial feed out of the combs, so no line crosses take place for contamination, for producing a pure floral crop?
