Green algae
« on: January 14, 2020, 02:28:35 pm »
I have noticed recently that small areas of algae are appearing on my 8 weekly cleaned frames. Only some but not had it before.
Also the van roof had the same, cleaned about 6 weeks ago.
0ppm water.
Anybody know why? Thanks

Small but perfectley formed

Because it's been so wet.
Spit and polish

Yep, soaked.
Plenty of rain, not much sunshine.
The ground is absolutely soaked through round here, north wales. I live on a farm, so used to what it’s normally like.
