So in real life all day sunshine would only benefit the honey production?
Not really true alas, the bees can only get nectar when flowers produce it....it's the flowers you want in the sun so they produce nectar earlier. Different plants also produce nectar at different times of the day and the amounts vary according to local soil types/weather etc etc.
