Good morning.
We are struggling with trying to understand whether or not feeding pollen substitutes is a smart way to start building up our hives this spring, or whether we should be ordering irradiated pollen.
Or if we should just be feeding 1x1 and forget about pollen.

If the answer is to feed irradiated pollen, how does one find a reputable brand?

Also, are supplements like HealthyBee really effective and worth the investment?

Input is greatly appreciated.
Thank you. 
:)Andrea
