Yeah, this is very weird... I made some HQ beehives and my crops are good quality, but i get quality 5 honey from it? WTF?!

Do you even read the wiki? The quality of those is random for some random reason.

yeah, i'm reading wiki.. but i can't find where is talking that quality is random

Both Beeswax and Honey quality seem to be based not only on hive quality, but also crop quality and/or the amount of growing crops within the hive's radius. A hive that sits for one high quality harvest and is then left without growing crops will give low quality wax and honey, while a bee hive that is permanently pollinating high-quality crops filling the entire radius will give far higher quality wax and honey.

Edit: You see you cant Accualy determine the quality so its kinda random
