How many flower a bee has to visit to make one spoon of honey?

Not certain of an answer for your question; however, maybe this will help:


According to the PBS program Nova, Tales From the Hive, a female worker Honey Bee will produce 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in her 30-day lifetime. In each collecting trip, she will visit 50 to 100 flowers to load up at least half her body weight in pollen and nectar to bring back to the hive. At this rate, to make one pound of honey, a hive’s workers will fly some 55,000 miles (generally within a 3.5 mile radius of the hive) making about two million flower visits.skin disease
