Opening hint: each of the 2 = signs joins two matching cells — whatever they turn out to be, the cells on either side of the pair must be the other symbol. Our solver finishes this board in 5 sweeps of line logic, which is why we rate it tricky. Blooms ramps through the week: Monday's board is the gentlest, Sunday's the hardest.
How it works
Half bees, half bloomsEvery row and every column holds the same number of each — three and three on a 6×6 board. This row is complete.
Never three in a lineTwo alike may sit side by side; a third may not — across or down. Three bees: one has to go.

Signs link neighbours= means the two cells match, × means they differ. Tap a cell once for a bee, twice for a bloom, a third time to clear.
