I have a big problem here with my vegetable patch with pollination. We have struggled in the past with not enough bee activity so I am thinking of getting our own.
So, my question is - stingless or stinging bees? I was thinking of getting a hive of stingless and putting them in the vegetable area but will they be enough to pollinate??? It is a huge area and I'm really not a fan of stinging bees - I always get stung! Has anyone done this is stingless and had good success with pollination rates as the hives are very expensive if they don't work as I want them too.
Thanks!
