Edited thanks @Grant

@Grant how do I do that - or do you have to do it? also can I edit the advert once posted?

Oh right... so I submitted it and got a success message back, but now the whole thing has vanished - is it awaiting approval? Can I edit after submitting?

Instead of “produce finder” my advice would be to title it “buy NZ honey” or “buy honey and bee products” or something. If there is one thing I have learned about marketing recently, the instruction has to be simple and clear!

The external website link field won’t work, I enter my website in there and it doesn’t seem to recognise it as a valid URL. The rest works ok

@Grant do I just go to the produce finder and submit an advert?

Hi, I havent really been following this thread, but I guess I should seeing as I keep getting mentioned for anyone who is interested, our story is pretty predictable - didn’t like the idea of $3.50 (or not selling at all) so took a deep breath and packed some off. We’ve had a couple of label changes, use social media marketing and have built an online shopping platform. Current biggest issues are packaging - no one likes plastic - and freight costs - honey is heavy. It’s been an interesting journey so far and have learned heaps, yes it is hard work moving retail packs

Meh - it looks to me like they’ve seen an opportunity and are now trying to fit a story to it, by #######ising the science and throwing red herrings into the mix. Not an unusual business approach Unfortunately.

Interesting thanks - did you soak it on the roll, or cut into strips then soak? Cheers

@Maggie James I agree - a few know it alls on here tend to shoot down very sensible questions rather than engage with the people asking them. I imagine Grant has some interesting data on visitors or readers or members vs “commenters” and the commenters would be a very small group.

I did have a look through the list to see if there was a dramatic eye roll but unfortunately no

Mount the crane at the rear of the deck if you can - you trade off a bit of road handling/comfort but gain the ability to load both deck and trailer if you need to. i would agree on about 250-300kg pallet weight. Cheers

@Don Mac this group of chemistry isn’t only used as a seed treatment. Last I looked there were foliar-applied versions available also, which broadens the range of uses and crops. Cheers

@Alastair I thought having a personality disorder was a pre-requisite for a beekeeper
