This spring I had a some hives located for pollenation and decided to leave
them on location because the owner decided to plant several fields of
sunflowers. I figured I could pick up honey off this crop. How unfortunate!!
Is there any way to extract the sunflower honey from the supers. I have
removed the wonderfully white capped supers and started uncapping. What I
have found is an almost cement like frames. The honey has granulated in the
cells. It will not extract, what does comes out as a sugarry thick mess
that should not be mixed with any other honey. Advise would be greatly
appreciated as I have not been around sunflowers.

My location is Eden, NC located 9 miles south of the VA border about mid-
state. an area called the Peidmont.

Thanks
Frank Wyatt
