Jambo - best to have your "location" to give geographic context to your flowering time observations. There are considerable differences depending on how far N/S or E/W
Jambo means 'thing' in Swahili ... Tanzania? Congo? Rwanda?
Yes indeed, didn't realise I had omitted that. Hopefully fixed now, thanks!
Always thought it meant hello? None of the above, though I do have some African roots and lived on that wonderful continent for over three years - nothing to do with the username though![]()
hujambo Jambo = Hello thing!
I always thought "Jambo" meant hello , that is what I was uttering to the natives in kenya, must have been right otherwise i'd be on the flo, nepana sante

My bees are going mad for this weed at the moment - any idea what it is? Seems to produce copious amounts of bright green pollen.
Thanks.

Interesting day. Some nucs have mated well and are motering but two big units have failed to mate after a month so test frames are in.
Went through some colonies belonging to a lady I am mentoring and one of the nucs we created now on 5 frames of brood is a gem. Quiet bees, they froze on the comb, and no smoke needed at all. No flying at us no stinging... hmm.... I can see some grafting from her next year.
I perpetually live in hope.
