Loekoloek Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I have a small problem with my bee-farm,I made my farm at like day 30 and it worked fine since, getting 30 (6honeyx5beeboxes) every time I harvest, but since day 100+ or so my bees stopped making any honey whatsoever,I am desprate I need my daily dose of honey..In my inventory is every honey I got in total from my farm D:I was wondering if theres any way of fixing this :3?Thing that I thought that could be the problem- I have 10 pig houses surrounding the beeboxes, do they eat the honey from the beeboxes?- there are barely any flowers near, do they need flowers to produce honey? if so how do I get flowers to my base?

Captain Potato Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Yep i think the problem is there are no flowers near your base.I see bees returning from flowers with honey when they enter the box. Pehaps you need to relocate your houses or bee boxes away from one another. I think flowers randomly respawn.Not sure though. Best solution is to relocate the beebox to an area with flowers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TylerTheDragon Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 First of all - DAY 124 - you must be badass at this game. and second - it probably is just flowers , try relocating your area or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Tree Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Easier solution mate.... just go and catch few butterflies and release them around your bee-boxes, and they'll create flowers...that's what I did and I harvest every 2 days tons of honey.Remember, every butterfly = 1 flower....so calculate how many bees you have or how much speed you need Btw, I someone interested I can send via pm my saves (day 350) cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chocolate Tree Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 much better... its easier to make changes in your camp than "change" your base not you can make the delicious honeymeat (2+2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatPanda Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 o btw 1 more question, any tips on where to catch butterflies? been walking around for 30 minuts now and I haven't found a single one o.O, any specific biome?How to catch butterflies...1) Have a bug net2) Find flowers and walk over those flowers3) Catch the butterflies that spawn Butterflies are sometimes randomly around, but the easiest way is to just run over flowers, this will cause them to spawn randomly (not every flower, but most), then just choose to catch it with your net, eventually you'll catch up and swing at it to catch it, then move it and replant the flower elsewhere. Don't pick the flower though, that kills it and no more butterflies from there. Side note for butterfly wings for cooking, find flowers near a coast or plant some near a coast so you can corner the butterfly to swing a weapon at it or punch it. You won't ever kill it chasing after it with it flying away.Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've punched many a butterfly right on top of their flower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
