Hello, This year, hopefully i would like to try -for the first time- collecting some amount of pollen from my 11 hives (in Turkiye)... Does collecting pollen give harm to bees, or to the hive in general ? and does it reduce the amount of honey production in that hive ? Do u know a place on web where i can find sources/pictures related to the procedures of preparing pollens? thanks !
